...the best parts of the new system is that players who have large amounts of staked SPS relative to their league will be able to earn a larger amount of rewards than they were able to in the past.
I haven't looked it up yet, but I'm curious to see how many players in Champ actually have enough SPS staked to keep their rewards consistent with what they're already getting. I think something along these lines was necessary but the way it's set up is definitely geared towards benefiting the smallest fraction of top tier players. Business as usual though. Gotta feed the whales.
the basic framework of this implementation alone seems to be more than dubious. it is based on exclusion (not enough sps for everyone) and pushing assets from the bottom up. and again increases the barrier for new players.
are these signs that they are no longer trying to recruit new players but have started to suck out the existing ones?
i mean when the flywheel is running even sps are burned so even less players can participate. but we need new players if we want new money in the system from which we all benefit.
although i am actually one who is happy to be able to buy in the bear market, splinterlands has managed to reduce my deposits and will now probably stop completely.
there were just too many decisions made that point to scam......
It seems like most of the updates/anti-bot solutions have been geared towards pushing assets from the bottom up. I can't imagine being a new player. If I weren't already heavily invested, there's no way I'd be signing up right now.
Sadly I think the same.
