Almost. We are going to convert all unopened packs out there to tokens and all the remaining beta packs into tokens. When you open a pack you'll burn a token (I think they will get sent to @null).
We built the token platform and the dex associated with the platform is still due out this month. You'll be able to see your tokens in your steem keychain extension under tokens, you can see them in steem-engine.com, there are several third party wallets making them visible. They will be tradable on our steem-engine.com dex, but it's a dex so other sites will pop up and trade them too (like peakmonsters and how they trade.
This change really doesn't impact gameplay, just 10Xing the liquidity of owning/trading a pack.
But the alpha packs that were exposed and kept as packs I would assume would be the majority of the alpha packs that get turned into coins......if that is the case, alpha packs should not be included and left on the black market imho.
Are the contents reset when a pack is replaced by a token, though?
That's what I understood would happen.
If that is the case then full steemmonsters ahead!
That would be awesome and really help to rectify the situation i guess.
Didn't Somebody figure out a Way to See if there were good Cards in an Alpha Pack so they Could Then Sell their other Packs that had No good Cards in them ?? Those People Could Game The System by Getting Big Time Gold Cards If I remember the Steem Post that I read about that happening..
ok cool... thanks again for helping me to understand the implications... I think I have a general idea now and appreciate the efforts you guys have put in to all aspects.
