The Splinterlands Update We Desperately Needed Quests One thing that I have always thought about Splinterlands was that there was not all that much to do after you've hit your daily quest requirements at lower leagues. Of course you can play and get enjoyment from the game itself, but in the past, the earnings were small and the competition was often not so tough when you could freestyle which splinter you wanted to use. I absolutely love this new format with the elemental…

Splinterlands Rentals Are Way Too Cheap Insanity I just got assigned a new focus this morning by my 24 hour quest after doing alright with an earth splinter focus. My new focus was fire and so I took to the rental market to see if I could bolster my squad and try to rack up some points. This is the first time in a while that I have used the rental market and it is just insane how cheap everything is right now. It's almost like getting free cards. I believe that I spent…

How Much Of Trading Is Just Dumb Luck? Today I was able to stack a good amount of crypto-assets. I bought some BTC and pumped my Splinterlands collection over the 100,000 CP point for the very first time (which I am hype about but didn't want to post about for the third day in a row). I also took a small bit of money and bought into RUNE on leverage (despite the fact I said I wouldn't do it again) and am watching it slowly creep into the green. What Was My Strategy? Well…

Splinterlands Is Not Easy Making the move to Gold III Wow... People are really really good at this game. When battling in the silver leagues it isn't quite apparent to you how much strategy is needed to move up; you can usually just throw a few tough monsters out and find yourself with the win in the end a lot of the time. That is completely out the door at the higher levels. People are insanely creative and talented with this game, it's actually kind of awesome. I'm using a…

When Do You Want To See A Bull Market? How Long Is Long Enough? I don't have all that much to say today, it's a slow Sunday over here and I'm just thinking about how things are looking and what the future may hold. I see that today the markets have flipped green and some gains are being made. It isn't anything crazy, but it does feel like a moral victory to see investments trending in the right direction. I understand that having a bear market allows for a better period of…

Insane Room To Grow Linking Crypto And Traditional Business The total market cap of cryptocurrencies is $1,287,064,205,079 as of the time I am writing this. The market cap of all the economies in the world is estimated to be roughly 93,860,000,000,000 or 93.8 trillion USD. That makes the world economy roughly 73.92x the value of the cryptocurrency market. I offer up these numbers to illustrate just how important it is for cryptocurrencies to continue to combine forces with…

We're Bound To Get One Right... Right? Trading Sideways On days where nothing is really moving too much and the value of your holdings is staying roughly stagnant, it seems easy to feel unsure or have a sense of anxiousness over the validity of your investment. When it's going up consistently it's easy to feel good. When it's going down consistently you can panic or average out your purchase costs. However, this middle ground is the most frustrating to me because there is no…

Is SPS Nearing It's Bottom? I had a few dollars today that I wanted to invest into crypto and I was thinking about which of my holdings to stack and I came to the conclusion that the prices of SPS were simply too low to pass up on right now. The History of SPS Since the token was released, it has seen a pretty straightforward path for a cryptocurrency. A huge burst followed by a crash and then steady gains that then began trending down as the market itself slipped into a…

Dreams To Reality - Easier Than Ever Before Developers Everywhere I recently wrote about how I am working on a new app with one of my friends off the blockchain. This app is seeking to do something quite innovative in the nightlife and restaurant industries, and so when working on what the app would need to include, we figured it would be tough to find an IOS developer that could understand the exact vision... We were so wrong it is comical. I used Upwork (a freelance…

Ignorance Is Bliss Oh Man Well, I saw today that inflation in the United States is reaching levels that it has never seen before... So for that reason, I decided I shouldn't be looking at the performance of any of my portfolios (stocks and crypto). Everything is absolutely crashing right now, as one could expect seeing that the economy is on the way to a major collapse. I think that this will likely last for a fair amount of time and that the investments that we have made…

Not A Profitable Day Cliffdiving Well I guess we are really going to find out who is in it for the long haul now. I thought that this type of dip would only be found in nightmares or on Wojak memes on Twitter and Youtube, yet here we are. To see Bitcoin dropping wildly like it's an altcoin is just insanity. I know that we have seen some huge volatility swings during the lifetime of the asset, but being that we are seeing more plumbing than ever before being laid to support…

The Dangers Of Trading The Fed Hey everyone... That was rough haha. So basically what happened to me is that no matter which side of the coin I tried to play short term, I took a loss. My crypto outlook hasn't changed in the sense that I am in it for the long haul, but in regards to the stock market, I figured that things were likely to trend down and so I set myself up accordingly. The Dangers Of Trading The Fed Well... I was completely foolish yesterday. Not with the…
