Cheaper alternatives to Hydra || Ep. #88 || Splinterlands One of my favourite splinterlands posts to write it is finding cheaper alternatives to outlandishly expensive cards. I have done a couple of these in the past, and they have been well received. There are many cards that I don't have in my splinterlands deck, and I don't have a goal of collecting all cards. However, there is one that eludes me. I had a chance to pick it up late last year for half its current price.…

How do you prepare for a bear market? It's time to go shopping! Cryptos are on sale! The bull run is over. Anyone that was waiting for a correction got what they wished for (sarcastic tone). However, it is not a "bear market". That's based on the percentages of the Bitcoin and Altcoins averages and their respective losses. A bear market would be a result of a 50-90% drop. Don't wind yourself up into an uproar over the crypto market. I giggle when I read headlines like,…

Evaluating the 10 new reward cards || Ep. #92 || Splinterlands It's the ***middle of the year already***!! The 1st of January seems so far away.
