When I first saw inLeo Splinterlands collaboration I got excited, it sounded good that you can earn SPS tokens for posting via inleo front end. Then I looked into it and it looked to me that it is simply like you said above: Earn Hive -> Sell Hive -> Buy SPS.
Am I missing something? I could do that myself on hive-engine. What is the benefit, convenience? Needless to say I don't use it.
They said it also gives SPS token extra utility,
other than paying for premium membership at inleo in SPS, what is it?
Unless I don't understand?
If you sell everything that you earn from hive, how is that benefiting hive stakeholders ? Why I want to reward people who writes "I got this many reward card at end of season"! How is that valuable? That is shitposting to abuse reward pool and worthy of a DV.
At least for hive we can argue that money stays in the same ecosystem. It's less than ideal but perhaps not a total disaster.
If it is Dash then the money is leaving the ecosystem completely. It is net negative.
