Here we go, the cheapest cards on the market on the 8th August 2022!

Welcome back!

Welcome back to the Low hanging fruit report. If you have not joined us here before, to make it simple, I have been recording the lowest cards on the market per edition since this post here.

Let me carry on with the explanation...

The idea is to track and trace the rise and fall of card values. Do with that what you will!

Time will tell and so will my graphs. I need to be doing this over the course of many months to get those stats to show us true trending instead of just fluctuating.

Graphs

The Venari Heatsmith

Without the Alpha Cards...

Let's look at that without the Beta cards too...

CP and card collection

So much to process here! I need to look at cards I can potentially max or fill up to the next level up that are a good investment!

Yesterday I had 312,385CP.
Thus I went up +45CP.

Lol. Unfortunately that does not explain it to me any better.

Inflation values, yes, I assumed you meant the cards but in what sense?

There are only so many cards. I don't know if there is a way of know how many packs remain unopened but I guess one could try guess by using the cards in circulation value of every single card in CL currently in circulation.

Would be better done by the guys that code and find out such information.

So there would be a steady increase of cards available in general, but only in CL and CL rewards.

I don't think people will be opening packs to sell cards. It does not make sound financial sense, unless losing a little money for the chance at addition CL airdrop points and the chance of a GFL. Then they would be cycling cashflow to buy, open, sell and buy again.

Other than that... sorry, I have no idea what other manner of inflation you mean.

You are tracking the price at the moment which is useful to know. But it is only 1 part of the equation. What is important to see what may be driving the price changes such as the change in circulation.

For example, for VENARI HEATSMITH it would also be useful to know the change in:
Cards on the market, Cards circulated and burned.
Today I just checked and saw:
82300 cards on market
Distribution
1,561,793 cards circulating
10,473 cards burned

So if I saw the cards circulating are trending upwards, I can probably expect the price to fall so might sell or upgrade.

Indeed. That may affect the prices. Where do you see how many cards were burned in a day? I know where to see the total number of cards in circulation. I am not even sure it explains if it counts 500 for a level 10 or just counts 1 for a level 10.

Despite the amount of cards that were burned as you say, Venari Heatsmith has been on $0.01 for more than two weeks without going up or down. Maybe a different card needs to be used as a case study for 2 weeks or so before I can consider including these factors into the report. (It already takes quite a bit of time to put together.)

If what you say can be done, I am sure that it would serve as a possible predictive function, but I don't know how accurate or stable it will be. Which is why I suggest we pick a card to run a case study on.

Up till now the Low Hanging Fruit report has served well enough showing us a Historical account of the lowest card values per edition. Sometimes these values change while I am writing the report.

I try do it in one sitting. I have arrived on the scene to find a massive chunk of cards dumped on the market for cheap and while I report on this sudden fall in price, the cards are snapped up. This is something that makes trying to build a predictive matrix tricky. At that moment, it was all about buying and selling what was available on the market and not about how many cards were in circulation. It was Beta cards. Offered and bought.

How often does that happen? I don't know.

We will need to pick a card to try it on. I don't think the Venari Heatsmith will show us much movement. Its price is stable regardless of print rate, availability and so forth. Maybe some cards arrive on the market at $0.009, but they are bought out immediately if they are and $0.010 are not selling out fast enough to move it to $0.011.

Maybe something in the Untamed set or Untamed Reward cards should be picked...

I only see the total burned cards and I guess it would be manual if you tracked that.

Those are some good points and I see what you mean about the price volatility. I wasn't thinking that you include these factors and probably like you said they are not needed for low hanging fruit etc. I was just wondering, if the total minted supply or like you said total supply on the market is then the main factor for being low hanging fruit.

I guess the card prices would all decline over time unless the player growth stays strong.

Historically the player growth seems to be increasing.

Splinterlands is doing a lot to become even more popular as a game. I follow some Hive posts about weekly movement on Hive. Lots of new accounts and loads of operations on the blockchain every week are centered on Splinterlands.

Like any game, there will be people who throw in the towel and quit or outright rage quit, simply because they don't like how things are being done and they specifically want stuff done differently.

However, the Splinterlands team have to walk the fine line between listening to their consumers and achieving their long term goals.

Evidently the company is making money. Evidently, people who invested in the game 3 years ago are earning from it now and will earn even more in the future.

The use case for older cards are being kept relevant. Even if 80% of the player base end up playing Modern only, Alpha cards will always retain their massive value.

This was ensured by the card CP, rarity of the NFT and now further reinforced by the fact that Alpha and Beta (older cards) will be more useful working on Lands than newer cards. Brilliant move.
