It's XMAS so I treated myself to a GFL

avatar

I couldn't help myself and decided to treat myself to an early XMAS present....

Welcome the the Deck Mr Golden Harklaw!

I seem to be accumlating DEC hand over fist ATM, so 30K didn't seem to be too bad.

AND IMPORTANTLY this was one of the cheapest cards per CP available.

The reason I bought this, and the reason I'm aiming for a maxie eventually is because of LAND - I think it's going to be a matter of cramming as much CP for plot as you can, and so these gold cards are quite litterally golden in this sense.

Earlier edition gold legendaries are too rich for me ATM, but this i can stretch to.

i'll probably hold off buying more of these for a little while, they might yet go down in price, but certainly at their current price-point, I was happy to pick up one of them!

Nice! I wonder how many cards land will absorb. Hoping it is a lot!

Curious where all that DEC is coming from. I'm accumulating 1/4th what I usually do.

The DEC print rate goes up and down with the price.

I can't wait for a few announcements about how land is going to work to start coming out!

Right, I've been getting less while playing because the price is down and I've been getting less for my rentals because no one else is getting much so I was curious how you are managing to accumulate at a higher rate right now?

Most of my drop comes from nearly 2M DEC I'm holding, I think that's what does it. Also almost 90K SPS staked. It's surprising how it all adds up!

I am going to buy A LOT of DEC in February and risk it for a month - assuming the price is low, to accumulate an incredible amount of SPS!

My SPS drop keeps going up because as dec drops against Hive, the DEC in my dec/hive pool keeps growing. The impermanent loss in this case is working to increase my SPS drop a lot.

I really want to see some evidence of a turnaround before I go any deeper into buying anything in Splinterlands but it is tempting as these prices drop so low.

Ah you see I pool every day at 16.00 then out when the snap shot is done - it's a great way of minimising your IL, especially as Hive has done so well with the dropping DEC price.

I think I'll buy myself a signficant amount more DEC when the Hive price pumpity pumps again.

(I have had the same problem in the DEC-BUSD pool which I am in permanently - I'm a $1000 down over two months on that, but it's only a minor portio of my DEC stake so I don't mind too much.

Yeah, I don't mind too much now with the DEC:hive pool because the 100,000 dec is now 220k dec which has those double points so I'm making 10% more sps. I would have just had the DEC sitting around anyway. Of course it means I have less hive but the SPS drop makes up for it (especially if SPS decides it ever wants to come to life again). With Ragnorok coming though I'm really starting to think more about my hive. I only have about 500hp and that just seems way too low.

The pool that's killing me right now is DEC:SPS. That thing is a dumpster fire.

DEC was $10 per thosand two months ago, if I'd have sold 1M DEC at $10 per thousand that = $10 000 into stables i could today buy buy back the same amount of DEC for $4500 and around 30K SPS too.

1M POWER pooled and staked for two months would have yielded me 200 SPS a day or 12000 over two months.

NB I didn't sell 1M DEC when it was $10 into stables, but I did sell a fair amount along the way, I sort of hedged my bets and kept some pooled and sold some.

I've learned from the past that pooling with assets that have declining value is a bit a death sprial for your wealth, but it tends to be difficult to spot!

Hive has actually proven quite a useful token to hold of late, god knows I've waited long ennough for that to happen!
