Splinterlands Exceeding All Expections ~!

avatar

Hi Everyone,

I'm sure many Splinterland players couldn't work, sleep, got on with life the last 20 odd hours like myself. The SPS airdrop happened overnight and when I woke up, it was already done and a few hours in. The pre-sale price of the token was 1.8c so my expectation was not very high and if we hit 3c, I would get a coffee each day which is great for just holding assets. I've been doing that for 3+ years, now I'm getting a bonus so it's great! I woke up and saw the price at 40c each! WHAT!! Yes I woke thinking it was a dream but not, took another look and it was 40c. Of course at that moment, I haven't claimed anything, this was just checking online prices and when I went in to finally claim, I was too excited to even think about anything else. It has totally exceeded my expectations, more than enough. At one point during lunch, it went up to $1.20! It's like having a second job just holding onto my assets.

Think that SPS was exciting, DEC was equally as exciting. It is now nearly 7x at the supposed pegged price and is hard at keeping demands. I had a slight thought of selling at 5x but decided its not life changing money so no point touching it so left it there. After dinner, it is currently at 1000 DEC for $6. Unbelievable! By the looks of things, this is going to be the new SLP! As I am currently in diamond league, many players I believe will be getting 100+ DEC per winning game provided their capture rate isn't too low. I keep mine around 70% mark before I go to sleep to give myself a buffer as I can't play in the mornings. Remember this is only the first day of the airdrop, DEC have exploded, imagine when SPS staking starts, land game play and so on. Getting interesting here.

My love of SPT is now affecting other players. The price of SPT have also blown and trying to get a bit of SPT from the market is hard unless you are willing to fork out a nice price. 1000 SPT will set you back around $5USD, let me remind you last week was nearly 1/10 of that price. My head is spinning but I am still grateful holding on to a healthy sum of SPT and every bit counts. Don't underestimate SPT, it is definitely something people tend to overlook.

Finally, 24hrs sales volume have exploded with over $244k sales and rentals over $4K worth. A few weeks ago, I was celebrating we had over $10k sales and that was already awesome, look at the numbers now! Exploding is probably appropriate. New players are definatley looking to rent some great cards to move up the ladder trying to win those DEC which also means making my life harder to move up. With my team, I don't have any hope going up Champion level but happen already sitting in Diamond comfortable for now. Today is the day many Splinterland players have been waiting for, it has certainly exceeded my expectations and I look forward to every day for that airdrop PLUS the increasing popularity of the game. This is only day 1, many more exciting times to come ahead!

Yes, it's very distracting, but in the best way possible. I'm a little nervous because it feels too good to be true, but I don't think it is. Splinterlands is a special case. This is something that has been building for years. It's not a brand-new thing pushed out for a quick buck.

I spoke to a few people and we are all the same haha. I think this will be around and maybe go a little higher since staking and land haven't even arrived. Did you see the prices of land, $30 around 3 weeks ago when I got my last plot and now its like $240! People are grabbing them left right and centre. Our 3 year project finally seeing the fruits of it and I'm glad we are around for it the whole way!

I did see the prices on land skyrocketing! The last time I checked, it was only about $100, though, and I thought that was crazy. I only have 2 land plots, but I got them for $20 each, so I feel okay about that. I probably shouldn't gotten more, but my money isn't a bottomless pit (yet, give it six more months of this craziness). haha.

You can still buy land on the hive-engine or waxatomic hub which is on the wax platform. They are significantly higher than what was sold on the site before but the two sites is a great way for those who wants to get more plots, tracts or regions.

It's all been skyrocketing and if the DEC price can keep as is or be even higher then it could be a great bit of extra money from just small sales.

With SPS, do you have to have anything linked or do anything? I don't have much assets as I just started again, renting and working it up but I would be keen to know what to do so the daily airdrops give me any bits I can earn!

Yeah I can imagine that many weeks with now another 4 as well added, would be tough to keep up and keep working on it. Stick in there though, at least you got Splinterlands and posting to help keep you semi sane 😅

Will do, thanks.

Yes, its really tough with little kids at home during lockdowns.
Clown world is not great but Hive world makes up for it somewhat.
Especially when we are showered with Splinterlands abundance.

It's like having a second job just holding onto my assets.

Gaming can be a job for more and more people in the future.
Some streamers and YouTubers are already earning even more what is needed for a proper living, so it is already a job for some people, not just/only for professional esport players.

pre sale of 1.2 cents?! didn't know about it!

It is now nearly 7x at the supposed pegged price and is hard at keeping demands.

I think the peg is 0.001 no? so it would be a lot higher than that

presale price was 1.8c.

DEC has a soft peg of 1000 = $1 but yah not it is now truly well over

It's hard to believe that this is happening... the SPS airdrops are so exciting, and everybody is just freaking out about Splinterlands. I think you might be right when you compare DEC to SLP... and that is wild to think about. I'm curious to see what the DEC price is like throughout August
