Finally had the opportunity to celebrate Christmas with the family and received some cash! Wahoo! Now the question, what to do with this Christmas money in splinterlands? The options are many and below you'll see what opportunities are available for all yall that were gifted some extra holiday cash.
Buy DEC. DEC isn't expensive and you get one airdrop point per DEC. Now the total amount of airdrop points increases everyday as other players collect more points. You must have a fair chunk of airdrop points in order to get free SPS and one of the cheapest ways to do that is to buy DEC. Additionally, DEC can be used to rent/purchase cards. It's a very versatile currency for splinterlands with many opportunities.
Buy SPS. Besides the SPS you get from airdrops, you can buy SPS to stake. The more SPS you have to stake, the more free SPS you receive. Additionally, SPS will come more into play with lands in the near future per splinterlands. Being the governance token, SPS will be very important to hold in the future and you should try to get as much as you can.
Buy cards. Over time, the cards you rent out will pay for themselves and you don't have to rent the cards for yourself anymore that you buy.
Rent cards. In order to progress in different leagues, you must have power and strong cards. Buying cards can be expensive, so renting the power and strong cards you need in order to advance is a cheaper short term option than buying the cards themselves.
Buy packs, such as chaos legion. Packs seem to appreciate in value quite well as seen from past pack sales. If you're looking for long term investment, this could be an option for you. Or if you want to diversify your deck and hope to pull a legendary card, then buying and opening packs could be an option for you.
Buy land. Since land is so limited and already sold out, you must buy it from another player on the hive engine. Land will have an important role in the near future of the game.
Buy potions. If you already have packs, you should use potions in order to maximize your pulls or your chances become less. With the price of packs, you want to get the most bang for your buck and potions can help with this.
What do yall plan on using your Christmas money for in splinterlands?!
