There was a time when SPS was new and only very small supply was available. Also, SPS gave more SPS airdrop and staking rewards. So the inflation got higher and higher and the price dropped during the bear market.

Once all SPS are distributed, this could change, because you can burn SPS for DEC which you need to buy things. Also, when DEC is above 1 USD per 1000 (better said 975), you can actually make money by burning SPS for DEC.

We're far away from this good situation, but in theory it should work with either new players or the company stille existing 2 years down the road.

Keep enjoying the game!
