Matt and I continue to be blown away by the overwhelming success of this game and the support of this community. We can't thank you enough for helping to make our first 24 hours of beta card sales nothing short of extraordinary.
We currently have 2,214 people who have purchased starter packs for this game. 244 of them have purchased booster packs in the last 24 hours. We have sold just shy of 16,000 packs making this the second largest 24 hour sales period in company history just after the last day of alpha sales.
Broncnutz has purchased the most packs in that period (2,001) and the average number is 65 packs per player $130.
My favorite stat is that we've had $31,000 of purchases come in from other cryptos! That means that $31,000 USD of other cryptocurrencies have been used to buy STEEM on the open market (through Blocktrades) specifically to purchase Steem Monsters packs. While this is still small in the grand scheme of things, it's a good start. We have to grow more to make a bigger dent, and that's exactly what we're trying to do!
Fighting
The next step is fighting. We're looking forward to getting fighting out and that's where we are focusing. We were taken a little by surprise by how quickly the alpha packs sold out and have had to scramble, but now that the site is up and betas are selling we're resuming all attention on bringing you battles.
Simple PVP comes first, but then we'll get the decentralized tournament system up and running. Get ready for the cards to work for you. Watch who is leveling up. Keep your eye on the prize(s). 😎 The battles are about to begin...
Prize Pools
Currently, we're working on a Kickstarter challenge that will get us up to $50 daily prize pools along with our weekly $1,000 prize pools. The fastest way to impact that number is to participate and back the Kickstarter campaign. If we reach $100,000 we get $100 dailies (currently at $63,000).
The best deals live in the Kickstarter and Fundition campaign. So, if you're happy with the beta cards, which many of you seem to be, then that's the best place to pick up the deals!
Additionally, we've budgeted 30% of card sales from beta to go back into prize pools. We can't predict the exact number at this point, but we're looking at the capability of $10,000 per week from us, and an unknown amount from people looking to tap into the attention of the Steem Monsters community.
Are you ready? Cause at this pace we'll sell out of beta in 2 months. 😎
Thank you for your continued support!

This is huge imo, those are people who are already into crypto possibly giving Steem a chance for their first time. I love that Steem works great for people who have never used crypto as a first step, but it also is really great for those who have been using crypto to see so many people using it daily here on Steemit (screw the "HODL" mentality) and thus jumping into this blockchain.
Yeah, really liked that too :)
How many are dipping a toe into the water to test it out before moving in strong?
You're both bang on, this is a really encouraging stat.
I’m putting the entire Steem Monster Community on NOTICE right now. My Steem Monster Squad is looking legit. I am here to wreck your cities, destroy your towns, drink all your beer and empty your bank accounts into untraceable Monero. My squad is pumped and have been on a strict diet of roofing nails and steroids. Anyone who wishes to battle with me will fall like Hillary Clinton trying to get down a flight of stairs. If you come at me, you better come hard and come with friends........or just go buy some more Beta Packs!!!!!! Muhahahahahahahahahahahaha
I continue to be fully amazed with how this project is proceeding and proud to have supported the kickstarter and alpha phase! I still have a bunch of unopened alpha packs... I'm almost wondering if I should collect them that way for trade later :-D
Thanks guys for your amazing work and dedication to this project. It feels like just yesterday alpha was released and here we are eating up the beta packs.
I am soooo exited to see the fighting start up and tournaments kick off. The idea will be much easier to sell once there is a FULLY working system.
Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to seeing what the future brings.

Awesome :) tipuvote! 3
Someday I hope to see a "Lord of Lightning"...
nice clip @jeffjagoe. love King Gizzard...
Glad someone enjoyed it! King Gizzard is awesome
Exactly
Happy to have added to that statistic! 😂 I only bought 10 beta boosters, but the moment I saw the beta packs were live I -had- to buy some.
Looking forward to the battles!!! 😊
That $31K other crypto stat is awesome! Keep up the great work @aggroed and @yabapmatt. This is a huge project for the STEEM blockchain and I think it will continue to get loads of external interest.
When will the players know the numbers relative to the battles? For example, what are the odds to Dodge? Will these odds vary with the level of the monster that has Dodge? Will they vary with the level of the attacker?
Please change the word Dodge for Stun, Poison, Retaliate, etc...
We need the numbers to build our teams.
That is an incredible amount of prize money! Can't wait to start battling!

I am new to crypto and these type of card games. Your success with @steemmonsters amazes me and watching it all unfold is a unique experience.
Thanks to you guys that have been dedicating so much to this project with the input and work of the community. I think this will prove to be one of the DApps that all blockchain technologist have been looking for to prove the viability and potential growth of decentralized projects and how they can be formed and supported by a community.
I was part of that BIG SALE Day......GO MONSTERS !!! @steemmonsters
I’m excited I’m saving up my posts payouts to get a starter pack!
