So I am new to crypto and don't have any yet but was interested in Splinterlands as way to earn. I am currently stuck hovering between novice and Bronze III and thought a good way to get a jump start was renting cards with credits. Since I don't hown crypto I have been wanting to buy credits with USD through Pay Pal but had some concerns.
Why does splinterlands need me to submit a photo ID? Is the third party site requesting it safe? And is my plan to rent cards actually a good idea. Please let me know.
