We've been here from the very start and have seen this game take on many directions. It really is awesome you feel this way about the new updates because I do too. :)

I see the updates supporting both loyal and new players. With the release of DEC, we are now given a choice on how we want to spend our SM earnings. Want STEEM? Sell your cards and DEC for STEEM. Want a bot upvote? DEC! Or if you simply want to build your deck and play competitively, then spend the DEC to buy orbs and mystery potions..so many options!

Since I don't have the time to write a respect post myself, I will share yours since we have the same sentiments! Matt and Aggy did a wonderful job, and I heard DEC is Matt's idea. :)
