I don't know how many people exploit these opportunities I present in my constant reporting on the best deals on the blockchain. In terms of follower and being on trending, I'm very much in the middle and I don't get much exposure to the articles I'm writing. Maybe that is for the best. The few who do read won't miss out on their chance to do big because some whale came up and bought all the cheap & best deals.

Right At The Final Lottery

I grabbed myself a screenshot right before the final sale kicked off. After giving away all of those who entered the lottery their piece of Land the third Presale continued long after the lottery. The first sale ended in 21 seconds. I heard the second one managed to keep going for 40 minutes.

Right Now After 4 More Plot Purchases

I bought 4 more Land Plots while writing this article. Each was priced at $14 (which is a 60% discount on the $20 price) It looks like much of the remaining Plots will be sold at that price.

Special Discounts For Orca and Whales

• 15% off when buying 100 Plots at once
• 25% off when buying 1000 Plots at once

These are given o top of the existing discount. Those who managed to enter the firs presale managed to get upto 62.5% discount. So why am I claiming an even bigger discount. The discount I calculated is 63.25%

How on Earth??!!

The trick is called DEC. It is an investment I have repeatedly claimed to be both better (in terms of ROI) and safer than $AAPL stock. Some may think it is a crazy claim to call a virtually unknown token a better investment than a company with 2 Trillion USD marketcap. But I stand by my words and I'm demonstrating the value here.

Powered Down & Sold on https://steem-engine.net

I don't rush things too much. No matter your personal feelings, one must not become blinded to market realities. DEC went over $0.001 and even managed to stay over $0.0009 for a decent amount of time. But the price on https://steem-engine.net has gone down a little extra.

Compare With https://hive-engine.com

The volumes are much better, but you are paying 7% - 8% more for DEC when you are on HIVE-Engine. The difference isn't always there. But if you keep checking, you are likely to come across these great opportunities. As long as you don't plan to trade more than $100/Day in volume, you should do fine getting the best out of these deals.

1000 DEC = $1 Conditional Peg

If you could buy 1000 DEC for $0.70 that means you are getting a 30% discount on Untamed Booster Packs, Praetoria Land and others. I managed to start buying under $0.70 but had to pay more as I had 400 STEEM to unload. Since I'm not a whale I have to resort to buying individual Land Plots. This might lead me to own multiple "Keep" and "Castle" buildings if RNG favors. But that is just a possibility.

Getting 30% discount twice is the same as getting 51% discount. If you had to pay $14 for a $20 item and paid only 70 cents to buy a dollar, you end up paying only $9.80 and that is called a 51% discount. If you are buying larger quantities

• $11.90/Plot when Buying a Tract
• $10.50/Plot when Buying a Region

Do the Math!

HIVE-Engine Prices

Yes, these numbers look slightly better than what I manged to get. But there is a catch to all of this. Those who bought a Region for $7.50/Plot can sell them for $9 can have 20% gains easily. But you will be missing something a lot more valuable when you don't directly purchase from @splinterlands

Splinterlands Raffle & Totems

For each dollar or 1000 DEC you spend, you get 1 Raffle Ticket. This is a quick look at my chances for the Raffle that is going to be giving away 31,200 Totems:

Totem Rarity

• 25,000 Common (80.12% of supply)
• 5,000 Rare (16.02% of supply)
• 1,000 Epic (3.2% of supply)
• 200 Legendary (0.64% of supply)

Totem Price Action

Since Totems will be giving boosts o the pieces of Land, price will vary based on the value of the Land itself. If a Totem gives 10% boost to a particular Land, anybody who is paying 10% of that Land Plots value will be able to break even. Those who have ultra rare and expensive Land will have much to benefit from Totems.

A Lesson From Antshares/NEO GAS

Before the rebranding, NEO was known as Antshares. I saw massive potential for trading profits. While browsing the internet, I got to find about GAS. I was told few basics about GAS and I totally believed that GAS could outperform NEO. It turned out to be true and GAS prices went up several times more than NEO did. Similar things could happen to Totems in terms of price action.
