It really just is an update to the otherwise very deflationary cryptocurrency token #SPS (Splintershards).
As can be seen in this graph picture, SPS just fell 20+ percent in less than an hour.
It is arguably a very small market - not least since almost all the released tokens are staked in-game for further airdrops. Therefore the market can very easily be both manipulated and incredibly volatile to changes in supply and demand.
Clearly, somebody wanted to unload a handful of tokens today.
They'll be back - as some old movie star would have said.
For new players:
If by any chance you haven't tried Splinterlands yet, please do go and use my Splinterlands referral link. It's free for you and beneficial for me 🙏 Oh, and you risk making SPS (Splintershards) that sells for fiat money on exchanges, if not directly then at least via other cryptocurrencies.
