Hey everyone!

It’s been a while that I have updated this account as I am trying my best to shuffle time, family, work, and also looking at creative ways to make the steem blockchain usable.

Recently as you have noticed, the Untamed versions has been released and everyone are pretty excited with the splinterlands gaming.

I have actually started testing out this game after received starter pack cards and testing out how I can effectively have fun at the same time would maybe save enough for the next Steemfest 5 ticket.

However, there are just so much things I would like to try but some of them, are troublesome to obtain if I need to spend DEC in SCOT tokens via steem-engine; and was looking for ways to figure out how to go about it.

Fortunately, @gtpjfoodbank has been blessed with much SCOT tokens rewards, in part the Food Bank director has agreed to burn at most 10% of the rewards that it has undoubtedly staked (when there were 50-50 rewards either delegated to it as beneficiary donation); but the Food Bank doesn’t have enough time to manage all the SCOTs and playing around with it.

But @gtpjfoodbank values SP more as it is targeting to be part of the supporting chain @fundition and @adollaraday ; so with the little amount it has from the SCOT tokens, we made a trade.

Whatever it has sold off and sent to my splinterlands gaming test account (which some already know in the discord), I have decided to use my main account to power up its account, rounded by 3 decimals.

It wasn’t a lot to test, but it was a nice trade for the food bank’s account because they will be able to support the community of crowdfunding accounts it selected.

The whole idea is to find ways to satisfy both end’s needs

I needed some steem pegged to obtain some DEC, and @gtpjfoodbank needed some SP.

And through this exchange it minimizes 1% fee for the Food Bank’s benefit because I have enough to do it outside the steem-engine

And this is just one of a model that can help keeping the peer-to-peer communication open and building bridges of trust through this beautiful blockchain that is going through ups and downs due to market needs.

What do you think? If you are an active member of the steem blockchain and pretty much active in SCOTs too would you think this is practical to trade around in order to get the whole ecosystem continuous running?

And being a little thrifty along the way. Sorry about that steem-engine 😅

Until then
