Who is Thorlock?

Hi guys, you may know me from one of the four projects I run on hive-engine.

Hive DRIP https://tribaldex.com/trade/DRIP
Hive YOLO https://tribaldex.com/trade/YOLO
EZLICENSE https://tribaldex.com/trade/EZLICENSE
A Pirate Saga https://tribaldex.com/trade/LOOT

You may also know me from Splinterlands discord or my own discord. I started playing Splinterlands right before the launch of Chaos Legion and haven't looked back. I have 7M+ SPS and 120+ LICENSES (mostly personal but this includes some projects) and equivalent amounts of cards.

I also genuinely care about the community and seeing the game succeed.

I recently sponsored a streamer new account challenge by offering to give away a TOFU. You can see the post by Hive account@psilence here: @psilence/streamer-new-account-challenge--psilence-social-media-contest-and-winners-season-1

I've helped countless players being a middle man in trades, delegating cards, delegating sps, onboarding, helping with all sorts of troubleshooting, etc. I've never been a part of a game that feels more like a family than here at Splinterlands. I don't just enjoy the game, but I enjoy being a part of the growth of the whole ecosystem, that also includes HIVE. I'm the type of person that likes to leave a place better than I found it.

Making a Positive Impact

EZLICENSE

Around two years ago I partnered with Hive account@chansetheguy on the EZLICENSE project. I wanted a way for someone to be able to invest into a Splinterlands LICENSE without committing to buying an entire LICENSE. Earning from a node license shouldn't be just for whales and I wanted to help anyone be able to afford to contribute. The project has been running smoothly since and we just set up the validator software. We have not made a dime off the project and currently are using any extra HIVE to run the validator software and save to purchase another LICENSE. You can find out more about the project here: @thorlock/ezlicense-30percent-apr-sps-license-made-ez-2-ways-to-earn

DRIP

DRIP is a project I started around July of last year. DRIP is basically a tokenized GameFI fund. We raised significant funds to invest into GameFI projects with more than 50% currently invested in Splinterlands assets (SPS, LICENSE, CARDS, LAND). Just by holding 1+ DRIP, you receive SPS rewards daily! If you stake your DRIP, you receive more DRIP.

A Pirate Saga

A Pirate Saga is an epic and immersive blockchain-based pirate adventure game that takes players on a swashbuckling journey through treacherous seas, hidden coves, and ancient maps in search of fame, fortune, and the ultimate pirate legacy. Players are transported back to the Golden Age of Piracy, a time of lawless seas, hidden treasures, and daring escapades. Players step into the boots of a daring pirate captain and embark on a high-stakes quest for the greatest treasure the Seven Seas have ever known.

The game can fully be played from DRIP discord in addition to 4 (and counting) other discord servers. We are still in beta and added our first set of cards that can be seen at https://thepiratesaga.com/.

The game token is LOOT that can be earned from playing and is tradeable on hive-engine. I have plans down the road to incorporate a way to burn DEC in order to support Splinterlands.

YOLO

Yolo as seen from image at the top is the latest project I started on Hive-Engine. It's a tokenized meme coin fund. More info can be found on my discord.

Looking Ahead

Splinterlands has a lot of great things going on (NPE, marketing, land updates, new mechanics, validators, etc) and I am excited to be a part of it. I'm here for the long-term.

Feel free to reach out to me any time with Splinterlands or hive-engine questions and I'm happy to help if I can.
