dCity Updates : How to start playing dCity with 100 Hive!
In terms of USDT 100 Hive is about $57 and in terms of native toke of the game it is about 240000 SIM. To start playing, and understanding the game and its ecosystem, this amount is quite enough. Before investing your hard-earned money, you must know where are you going to invest to firstly read the info section of the game 2 or 3 times, join discord of dCity and put-up your queries if you have any doubt. Once you understand the basics, go and start playing. There are so many things you will learn with playing. You will make mistake and learn by mistakes.
Buy SIM
1st thing, go and buy SIM for your 100 SWAP.HIVE. Now you have the native token of the game in your hive engine wallet. There could be so many strategies to start playing, but one should not start playing randomly. Any strategy is always better than no-strategy.
Make strategy
It could be any as per your understanding. In the current high tax scenario, earning SIM income is very difficult, so with just 100 Hives it would not be much rewarding. Focusing on card minting could be one of the best rewarding strategy. So focus on technology tree unlocking, increase creativity and education. Most of the creativity and education cards comes with popularity, so it will also increase at the same time.
Education more than 80 gives chance to discover technology cards, while Creativity gives the chance to discover Background/Animation cards.
Technology tree unlocking
It will cost you 10440 SIM to unlock all technology cards. If you also buy Better Documentation Practice card from the market, unlocking time will be reduced to one card per 24 hours. One must keep in mind that this cost of 10440 SIM is just to unlock the cards not the cost of the card. Cards can be discovered or bought from the market later.
Activation of cards
Once you start buying the building cards which required worker, must be activated to get benefit of it. Buying Basic Home/Luxury home/Apartment/ Citizen cards will help to activate the building cards, so keep buying them also.
Accumulate citizen cards
Currently, scientist, artist cards are available at very low price so go and buy some cards and place bids to buy more. Never buy all cards on ask price. You can also place bids for other useful cards like Student and Student (debt) cards. However, these cards gives tax refund but buying on ask price is not worthwhile at this stage.
Participate in auction
Bidding in auction is one of the best way to accumulate cards at low price. There are two types of card sold through auction, one is 2nd edition building cards and another is Progamer card. Keep bidding below the market price of that particular card. Progamer card helps to increase ENTRY production (it is another token of dCity). Before buying Progamer you must have Stadium card to start getting ENTRY every day.
Activate events
In the current market condition not all events are rewarding so check the event carefully before activating it. For more detail about event check my another post How viable are activating events in the current scenario?
Increase training chance
This is also a good option to upgrade your citizen from Homeless/Immigrants to Worker, Artist and Scientist, but as in the current market Homeless/Immigrants cards are expensive than Worker/Artist. So it won't be rewarding to increase training chance. But this option must be in mind for future.
SIM power
Last, but not the least. If you are not getting better price to purchase any required card, no worry. Keep your SIM in the wallet. With time, it will convert in SIM power, and you will get SIM holding rewards in hive. Currently, APR is about 50%, which is also a good return on investment.
