RE: Hive Goals A Recap Of Things To Come

Thanks for sharing your insights and point of view.
I moved out of HBD to Hive earlier this year in anticipation of the bull market and a spike in price, but so far I am still waiting :)
But I think of it as a chance to stack before the crowds come.. :)
I didn't know all these things about Splinterlands, but I did notice I was winning more !! LOL so the competition is definitely down..
I wish the rewards were better though, 0.06 SPS when SPS is two cents is not much reward, niether dollar value nor stacking value.
I know it's higher in the gold and diamond ranks, but I wonder if the bulk of the players are in the lower ranks?
The lower ranks of beginners are not being incentivized to play with such low rewards.
I was stacking SPS by buying it with my Cub rewards, but that is gone now.
So I need another plan. It's harder to get money into the ecosystem now with the loss loss of centralized exchanges and the changes in buying crypto with credit cards and paypal. But I press on.
I think your right that a sizeable investment into SPS right now is a very doable way to increase my SPS stack at what are historically low prices, but I have some concern about it's ability to rebound when the rest of the market takes off.
It feels like for SPS ranking rewards that SPS is far too consecrated in just champions. I'd honestly love it if the team could show us a breakdown.
I agree, I think they decided to shift the rewards upwards, perhaps to reduce rewards to bots. But it also shifts rewards away from new players and I think stops the flow of new blood into the community. I know it must be difficult to run a game like Splinterlands, and every decision has pros and cons. I just wish the decisions would always balance the need to suppress bots with the need to encourage and incentivize smaller new players.
I understand the need to reward longstanding players, but I have been a player for a while now, I just can't make any head way with the way they set you back every season even though I like to play daily. If they wanted to reward players for longevity, reducing the amount of poijnts they take from you each season would be a helpful reward for longer term players. They could ven require a decent number of cards, as I think it is easy to accumulate cards playing the game.
