If you never tried Steemonsters yet, you should. It's by far the best thing on Steem right now and keeps many people who ran away from the broken blogging platform on this blockchain. We are still very

Steemonsters doesn't work with upvotes, the value of DEC is actually backed up by what can be bought with it (cards, potions packs, ...). The only way to earn DEC is by playing the game which actually

Good point. Aside from the lack of transparency, the entire upvote mechanic on pretty much all of the tribe tokens including Steem has shown over the years just to be broken and not work. I find it fascinating

Hi Braveboat ! Nice to see you back on Steemit. Things got a whole lot more complicated with the new system. Basically votes are worth less on low payout posts and worth more on high payout posts thanks

It's pretty awesome being able to earn something while playing a game and enjoying it. I do believe the high returns will come down as we are still very early on. More people need to come in all the time

Thanks @clove71, if anything I really like keeping track of the numbers. I plan on doing these on a monthly basis next year and hope to convince some more people to try out the game this way.

Playing 2 accounts is actually quite convenient when having 2 monitors, also the shortcut of pressing the battle button the moment an opponent is found really speeds things up like crazy. Thinking about

You can currently test out the game for free for as far as I know if you login on the site but won't be able to do daily quests or earn DEC unless you buy a 10$ starter pack. So I'd say try it out and

I rarely make Splinterlands post but have a Full Season Earnings Report up.

Just caught up with the latest drama, sad to see @upvotebuilders closing down. Thanks for everything you have done for the platform as it was one of the best initiatives out there! I really blows my mind

The way I look at it, the SBD peg mechanic has proven to be just fundamentally broken similar to how the entire idea of crypto reward upvote blogging and 'honest curation' to get the best content on top

It is the most logical scenario in this match. I do foolishly hope that Oostende will make the first goal early on though to bet Club Brugge afterward :)

The main issue is that the entire crypto reward pool upvotes system simply doesn't work and brings along countless issues that will always cause frustration, disagreements and wars between all those that

I've always been very intrigued by the model Steem uses and the more I think about it, the more I agree with this statement. The tech itself is awesome, but the entire fight for the reward pool is making

Steemit.com was in the top 1000 websites worldwide by traffic. If that's not 'working', I don't know what would qualify as 'working'. Bitconnect was once in the top 20 on Coinmarketcap with a multi-billion

I fully agree and the library full of books about the library comment is spot on. The entire crypto reward pool upvote system simply doesn't work. Despite this, it was still possible to build a small community

You should try using bloks.io, they allow 5 free transactions daily for their users, just make sure you activate the Free CPU when being logged into your account (I use scatter) EOS has been quite a struggle

The only ones that are working are those that act as "crypto bookmakers". All that tried to set up some form of betting exchange face the catch22 problem. They need users to bring volume while

Thanks @buggedout! Despite some of the fundamental flaws in the entire crypto reward blogging formula, I actually do enjoy having a blog as it really helps to keep me in a certain consistent flow. In that
