Splinterlands has a simple back to it, that BTC never had, thus, inherently it has value based in what it offers. A complex, while being simple at the same time, fun game that you can potentially earn from playing. The game itself is fun for strategy lovers and TCG lovers. The cards are NFTs themselves. Splinterlands' value resides whether the monetary aspect lowers or heightens. That's what I love about it. :) I've never been an avid player, but I've collected many cards across specific holding accounts over the years. Some of them are worth $60+ now and I paid a few hive a piece for them at most off initial booster packs. Albeit, Hive itself was around a buck or so the last time I purchased cards, to see $1-10 turn into $40-200 is absolutely astonishing! Splinterlands has my heart in more than just a game to play, it has value stored in all it's assets and in the hearts and minds of the people who've come to love strategizing playing it and watching it develop. I have no doubt that in the very very very unlikely case that Hive ever started to truly die out as a blockchain, it would be kept alive very successfully simply by those who want to keep Splinterlands alive. :)

The feeling is mutual . I hold in excess of 4k worth of cards. It’s fun and the best blockchain game to have been built
Now, obviously SPT could just port into it's own entity... but Hive derived from STEEM in the name of keeping records of actions and holdings accurate, as it's the path of least resistance to fork. Beyond forking, I'd assume the path of least resistance to keep SPT alive would be to keep the chain running.
