It is a routine to get off my bed between 06:00-07:00 every morning to publish my first post of the day, this I do simultaneously by responding to comments from the previous day and having a quick look at my feed from the early publishers like myself before freshening up or grabbing a cup of coffee. The first post that caught my attention this morning was Splintershards (SPS) Token Updates
On the demand side of the equation - we want to remind everyone that the validator node license sale is scheduled to begin in the next few weeks which is expected to burn huge amounts of SPS tokens over many years as well as the upcoming release of the Riftwatchers mini-edition (expected in Q3 2022) which is planned to ONLY be purchasable with SPS, all of which will go to the DAO to be managed by the token holders.
As of today we have 86 days left for SPS airdrop to end which I am looking forward to so we can start seeing the governance side of SPS amongst other use cases. By the looks of things SPS will be used in purchasing assets a lot often which is what caught my attention from the above quote in the SPS token update post.
Riftwatchers is the next in line cards to be launched with the ongoing sale of Chaos Legion if CL isn't sold out by the time of Riftwatchesr launch.
I basically woke up to a dilemma on what to do in terms of investing in Riftwatchers, for me not only is it an investment but also a move to strengthening my deck depending on the card(s) I will be purchasing.
Not to be taken as financial advise, I see the price of SPS doing better than it is now when the airdrop comes to an end, we might not see crazy surge in price immediately but every 10 to 20 cent appreciation of the token is to be expected.
Currently SPS exchanges hands for $0.118, it on the cheap considering it selling in the 90 cent region months back. accumulating more of it now will be a wise move for me.
The dilemma is I have other goals, 15k HP, 5k LP by the end of the year. I choose to remain flexible on my HBD savings as I consistently save, I am preparing to diversify onto Polycub with SPS pool to be available on there, porting of Polycub developments onto Cubfinance have seen my plans broaden as it vital for me to diversify and tap into the opportunities available on Hive's ecosystem.
The feel to this is, I feel I am a banker, we are bankers, we move funds around, diversifying them for better performance to yield more money. This is what the traditional banks do with our money deposited in the banks. We now find ourselves being in control of money like the banks which one of the benefit Hive have impacted on me, being continuously in charge of my funds and having control over it with the consequence solely on me.
It is not easy being a banker but I'd rather be my own banker.
We owe it to ourselves to make Hive great
