Good day/evening everyone within the SBT Community,

Today, we are going to talk about a few things that took place around SBT over the past weeks/months. As well as some major upcoming changes for use case within the SBT server.

First, I would like to announce the current burns that have taken place...

I had 1000 BEE about a week ago. I was asking inside Discord what I should unlock next. Staking and delegations had already been unlocked.

Meanwhile, I had reached out to @jim-crypto crypto (THGaming discord) and @zottone (PGM) to ask for their input on what to do next. Since, it had been a few days of reaching the goal of 1000 BEE. The original thought was to create an LP.

Zottone had mentioned burning SBT or some kind of burning method to help reduce the supply of SBT. Suggested I burn everything that I buyback. I like this idea and am in (mostly) open discussion within the Discord chats based around this idea. If you want to stay completely up to date with SBT as a project, please consider joining the SBT Official Discord Community.

As you can see in the imagery above, the latest burn happened 11 days ago. Both @sbtofficial and @itzninjafool (owned accounts) have burned another 15 Million #SBT. Others, @iamphenominal, @hucksbucks, and @kennysgaminglife all burned share SBT since creation or #SBT. Making the current burn total 30,318,280.8246 SBT burned.

Next, I would like to discuss the recent unlock SBT has introduced to SBT. Which means, active reward pool!

Thanks @jim-crypto for the idea to unlock this next. I appreciate all the help and pointers you and @zottone have given us thus far. It is very much appreciated.

We have unlocked a rewards pool for using SBT tags!

If you would like to earn from the curation trail for SBT rewards be sure to use the tags sbt, sbtbattle, and sbtbattletoken.

I am hoping this unlock will be great news to those of you who have taken interest in SBT. Without the support of those who have provided their input and thought about the direction of #SBT, we could not be here without you. It has been appreciated every step of the way and I look forward to keep SBT on the road to greatness. It has been an honor chatting and getting to know all of you. Let us continue the growth into 2023 with an open-minded discussion within the server, as there will be some major changes.

Changes will happen inside of the Discord for Giveaways

---

This should be an interesting topic. Mostly because it will provide a improved use case within the Discord to make things more beneficial to those who stake SBT.

Here is the plan laid out...

New roles will be listed inside of the Discord server and new channels will be created specific to stakeholder amounts. There will be a new channel, in which everyone will see, where you can ask to be verified to be granted your role. In order to be verified for each specific role, you will need to have SBT staked.

Each different role will serve as a tiered system. This means, that each tier will offer different rewards that you have a chance to win daily. Instead of the current predetermined system where it is one card.

The main idea is... Instead of a randomly chosen card, you will have a shot using the reward wheel according to whichever role you have been assigned. Each will have a list that will be based on the Splinterland's card rarity. Allowing the stakeholders with higher staked amounts the ability to get higher value rewards. Of course, the more you stake the better your odds of winning something.

I have mentioned the tier system in past posts. This is most ideal plan and I hope that you all will like what we have in mind. Listed below is each role and what each role will offer.

New Roles

• Common Stakeholder

The common stakeholder role will grant you access to all the common cards (common - regular foil Splinterlands NFTs) within the SBT inventory. Common stakeholders must stake 1000-10,000 SBT to gain access to this role.

• Rare Stakeholder

Rare stake holders will need to stake 10,000 - 100,000 SBT in order to qualify for this role. This role will grant access to the rare tier role for giveaways. Rare tier giveaways will grant access to rare role and allow you to win rare cards (rare regular foil Splinterlands NFTs) in all of the SBT inventory. Minus the gold foils.

• Epic Stakeholder

To gain this epic role SBT holders must have 100,000 SBT staked in their account. This will gain access to epic, rare, and common Splinterlands NFT cards. As well as gold foil common cards and gold foil rare cards. This role will also give you access to each tier below. Increasing your chances of winning a daily draw for the wheel of names (inventory).

• Legendary Stakeholder

The legendary stakeholder tier will require 1 million staked SBT. This will give you all access. Every previous tier, every card, in the SBToffical inventory. You will also gain the ability to win any gold foil legendary (if/when we have them) and lower via wheel as prizes. Inventory may change over time with increased chances of winning the rarest cards possible through SBT giveaways. Not to mention you will have multiple chances of winning per day of up to 5x!

• If You Have SBT But SBT Is Unstaked

Then we suggest that you stake. Otherwise, the only types of cards that you will have access to win are, common reward Splinterland's NFTs. There may be an occasional rare reward card. But, remember, these are all predetermined by yours truly.
