Greeting Slothly Savers
As you all have known before, I am a Splinterlands player. Even I play this game casually, I can not neglect the fact that I am a hardcore fan of this game. I play this game everyday and my HIVE posts are dominated by this game.
I see the price of SPS is rising to DEC price. 1 SPS right now is 9,9 DEC , so if I sell all my 800 SPS I will get 8000 DEC. for some weeks before we had around 1 SPS for 7,9 DEC, and if it rose up a bit, it would be 1 SPS for 8,4 DEC.
From a side of a coin, this is a good news for me. I could swap my SPS to DEC and I have more DEC which I need them to play this Game. I could rent better cards and maybe buy some gold foil cards just for fun.
I have been doing that for years. In the past the ratio was like 1 SPS for 12 DEC, so this year I had been struggling to play this Splinterlands better because my DEC in general were lower than those years before.
However, I have said that this is from a side of a coin. It means there is another side, the opposite one. This indicator is actually signaling a bad situation, which is the DEC price. SPS price doesn't get up, it is the DEC price that goes down. the lower DEC price, the worse economical situation we have for Splinterlands because DEC is pegged for in-game transaction, 1000 DEC for a dollar.
So we can say, everyone inside Splinterlands are getting poorer lol. I hope people who dwell a lot in Splinterlands management, including the DAO, could find a way to improve this condition. Nobody can peg SPS dan DEC at the same time, there will be time when we need to chose which one is more important...
Ok that's all I want to say about SPS and DEC, I do not want to talk to long because we have already too many smart people handling it. Anyway as usual, people who are interacting in this post through comments, have a chance to get some HSBI sponsorship from me. of course, it is not guaranteed lol
MY HIVE GOALS 2026 - SLOTHLY SAVER
Ok now we come to the main part of this post. It is an update report about my saving goals. Please take a note here that my timeline or calendar is different than the general slothly savers calendar, but the idea is still the same.
PRIMARY GOAL: HIVE POWER (HP)
My Primary goal is to build up my Hive Power (HP) to a Hive Orca Size, or around 62.000 HP. It is definitely very difficult, almost impossible for me, but that's a goal should be.
I am keeping up my growth speed for the last 3 months running, as this week is another good growth of 166 HP. I would not expect a good one in the last week of this month, regarding I will have a cyst surgery in that week. However it doesn't mean next week will be a flop one..
Reaching 62.000 HP is still a long time to go. The fund I have prepared is already decreasing. I have used it for a major maintenance on my car and house, which already consumed more than 1.000 USD. And this month surgery would cost me around the same number, even I use state insurance.
I will need to gather more spirit later next month, as I still keep my plan to achieve this 62.000 HP as a symbol of Hive Orca Size
SECONDARY GOAL: EDSI (HIVE-ENGINE TOKEN)
EDSI was EDS in the past, is the income token from eddie earner, the sub project of SPI for the previous #saturdaysavers club. My goal this year is to get at least 400 EDSI token, so I can get some weekly HIVE regularly.
23 EDSI to go, should I change this saving goal? so far I am thinking about new milestone only, many things have changed recently...
So that's slothlysavers post week 20 for 2026. Let's give our best to achieve our goals this year.
