Splinterlands remains committed to never selling DEC tokens on external markets. Instead we use our DEC tokens to fund tournament prizes, facilitate card purchases on the market, provide liquidity to the Uniswap pool, and other promotional purposes.
It is possible that Splinterlands will collect up to 300 million of DEC from this lands presale. Adding to whatever you hold currently, there will only be under 200 million DEC left in circulation. Are you sure you won't sell any of those DECs? There won't be enough DECs for the second presale 2 weeks later. What do you think?
Well it isn't necessary to use DEC to buy land. If there's not enough DEC available in future presales then players can simply use other payment methods.
