You're welcome! I'm glad you found the post useful.
There's more I need to learn regarding diesel pools/liquidity pools, but they are a great way to lock in the tokens of interest without staking them. Just be sure to contribute both the base token and the quote token in a 50/50 split.
A good number of diesel pools are oriented toward the gaming tokens. A few of those feature Splinterlands tokens, and others feature tokens or other games as well as general gaming tokens. Take a look through the Pools section of Tribaldex to see which pool(s) appeal to you.
