With less than 24 hours remaining for the general sale of Splinterlands Chaos Legion packs, more and more players have been stacking up as much Credit as possible in order to take part and build up their decks. Some intend to just stack those packs to capitalize on the daily SPS airdrop and maybe sell them for profit once they've sold out, while others are just too impatient to keep them unopened.
To be honest, I do not know where I stand at this point. I'm definitely keeping tens of those unopened for the long haul, but I will also have to open some Chaos packs in order to level up my decks and acquire some more power, which will hopefully enable me to compete in higher leagues.
After all, we all know what happened to the value of packs from all previous editions once they sold out, and history has a tendency to repeat itself. But you know the drill, this is just my personal opinion and by no means financial advice.
I have currently managed to accumulate $400 worth of Credit but I will be looking to add at least another $200, probably through posting content on Hive and LeoFinance and using my blogging rewards. The funds I have invested this far come from successful trades on the Binance Smart Chain network, but no amount of Chaos Legion packs is enough to satisfy my hunger at this point.
Splinterlands had a spectacular 2021, and I believe the game is gearing up for an even more impressive 2022 given all the progress being made and all the spicy additions currently in the works. The game has been kicking ass, and it looks like we haven't seen anything yet, as the play-to-earn frenzy of our times is getting our of control. In a positive way.
This year I am planning to start actively participating in more tournaments as my deck is getting stronger. Bought me a bunch of cheap legendaries the other day as it looks like now is a good time to buy some cards from the market given the low prices. I believe DEC and SPS will keep tanking with more and more players selling them for Credit in order to take advantage of the general sale, which will not require Voucher tokens.
With that in mind, my best bet will probably be to stack some DEC and SPS as well. Not sure about DEC, but I do believe that SPS will start swinging violently once Chaos Legion packs have sold out and the daily airdrop comes to an end, as a lot of selling pressure will be removed from the equation. Also, considering the interesting uses for SPS that will be introduced in the months to come, I believe that the governance token may be a better investment than it looks.
As you can understand, I have a lot of thinking to do to play my hand wisely. Some packs, some more SPS to be staked, and maybe a bunch of DEC to boost my airdropped SPS as well is on the menu. Thank God Ragnarok hasn't launched yet, so I still have plenty of sleeping time every day. That will drastically change though in the coming months with all that's being built here.
But hey, sleep is overrated.
Whatever, nobody said that making the most out of one's crypto-oriented ventures would be an easy job. One has to literally remain wired 24/7 in order to keep up with all the progress being made and not miss out on some amazing opportunities, and I plan to make the most of the situation this time around.
What about you? Are you buying up in bulk? If so, are you planning to keep those packs unopened in order to dump them later at a higher price, or are you opening each and every single Chaos Legion pack you can get your hands on? Would be awesome to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
That sums it all up for now.
