On the injection of SPS into the system, I tend to agree with you. I think we should figure out a more sustainable formula for SPS distribution. That's one of the reasons why this mini-set being priced in SPS will help, it will give the DAO more SPS to work with.

On the other things, we do get sales, they don't work out to 6% because we pay the other markets like Peakmonsters, Elmo-burns, monstermarket, etc their selling fee. Plus their is an amount of DEC burned with each transaction. We do get our own fees from people that use our site, but is thousands and possible a few tens of thousands yearly, not enough to move the needle overall.

We also are started to get money from the new things minted like the Raffle tickets or Auction marks or the Pickle Promo. Again these aren't massively going to move the needle, but they do add up over time. I plan on doing more of these type of things in the future because I don't think we have to move the needle on everything we do, sometimes its good to create cool stuff that people want.

I would be happy if we can get all those other items to a few hundred thousand a year and that's my initial target. We will still need to sell our sets of course, but those extra items reduce the risk and also give us more diversity.

Finally one thing that is not well understood right now is the way in which the Main Set was constructed. By having the Arcane versions in a "bucket" that WILL all get distributed, there will come a point where people will figure out that owning those packs will have a greater odds of containing one of those cards.

Every day we burn packs, so that reduced the available packs, and at some point there will be no more packs able to be made. Then at that time, we will know exactly what the odds are of getting one of those arcane cards. This should either drive pack sales towards the end, OR it should make the value of the packs rise. Either way is good for the economy.

Thanks again @bitcoinflood for the commentary and I hope I've helped explain better what is happening. We are moving forward, but I definitely understand its a complex situation and not easy to see from various vantage points.
