I'm glad to see that the HIVE community and Splinterlands has finally reached an agreement over the acceptance of their DHF proposal for funding. Splinterlands has always been the most practical use-case for HIVE and the synergistic relationship has been foundational in more ways than one.
Even today, I just walked a fellow guild member through the use of HIVE and how to post on HIVE. Splinterlands has onboarded so many users because its based on HIVE. The funding that is going towards Splinterlands is directly going towards advertising funding which is entirely to the beneift of all, both the game and the blockchain alike.
