Splinterland's : Buying skin in a game.

Splinterland's has now really positioned itself well in "play2earn" model and a single game is now connected with three tokens namely SPT (blogging rewards token for using SPT tag in Hive blockchain.) DEC , in game currency rewarded for playing the game and SPS, governance token and can be used in wide variety of in game promotions that will be added and explored with time.

Currently SPS token is getting airdropped to the Splinterland's player on daily basis and airdrop stake calculation is done by using the below table

Source

If you try to look closely in this table and try to calculate that which option is most "economically efficient " way to get maximum airdrop points in the game on today's scenario then you will understand that buying full set of card Skins(at 50% DEC discount) is most effective way to get the airdrop points.

Purchased Skins

I want to purchase the legendary skins set but they are already sold out in the game, so I am left to purchase the "Epic set" of skins in the game

So I purchased the whole set of Epic skins(contain 17 skins) at 79,900 DEC. At the time of purchase DEC was trading around $5 per thousand DEC so this purchase roughly cost me $400.

How much my airdropped points increased.

For purchased Skins I got 17 x 5000 = 85000 points and I spent 79,900 DEC so it is net profit of 5100 airdrop points. If you use the SPS Calculator tool then you will understand that 5100 extra point yield .9 SPS Daily and it come around 328 SPS (if I consider diminishing return with time, let settle for 300 SPS)

Now this SPS can be staked to be compounded daily for more then 300% APR, I can safely assume this compounding effect is going to yeild me at least 600 SPS in end.

If SPS goes to .75 cents at the end of a year, I can say that I am in breakeven and Skin purchase is free to me but there is something more to it.

Having set of all legendary skins is more rarer then having Castle in your land.

You read it right , there are only limited user that will have "Full legendary Skin set"and they will be <= 100 only though number of Castles (highest quality of land) will be 150.

Since I got Epic Skin set so there will be at most 200 players that will be having "Full Epic Skin Set". Currently having skin in a game is a rare resource.

Current drawbacks.

Skin is tied to the account , it cannot be sold, transferred and rented. Once you purchased it ,it become yours and you cannot resale it to other player.(unless you sell your account.)

But who knows the future.

Though Skins are still not "soldout" as such but they are really limited in numbers. If Splinterland's might give any skin benefits in game then believe me then player having the earliest version of the skins will be the greatest beneficiaries.
