Splinterlands Daily Focus Chest - Bigger Diamond | Crypto BTC, HIVE, SPS, GLX, DEC, FORGE (January 23, 2023)

Splinterlands Daily Update

• These are some good SPS chests
• Just under 20 SPS total
• Another skull... Can't wait for the next set of Reward cards to be released
• I am tired of another day of Halloween this season! #LOL 😂 (if you look at my previous post... I have been getting this skull card for all but one day)

Daily Focus Chests: +7 Diamond | 33 Diamond Total

Battles are going alright, but I just hit another wall

• After reaching Diamond in Wild League, I have been working on Modern
• The goal is to get to Champion III, sooner this season than the last
• Although I made it to Diamond II (yay!), it was tough going
• I have only gained 55 points in rating
• In all fairness, I have been testing out new combos, that's why... trying to understand new cards (I have completed all Chaos Legoin Reward cards to max), the best way is to use it... and taking some losses along the way

Market Headline - more job losses

• I have been seeing people posting online, bragging about how amazing their jobs were (Twitter, Google, Facebook etc etc)
• They did almost nothing for the whole day, and dine on company expense
• Free nice meal, free drinks and often times alcohol too, lounging while "working", yoga (definitely not working)
• Now the gravy train is over, they are back down to Earth (like everyone else)
• Expense cutting is positive for the stocks and the shareholders, maybe silicon valley employees will have to finally do some real work
• Just like after Elon took over Twitter, despite cutting most of the jobs, it is running... Better!
• As long as operations are still going smoothly, as long as the companies continue to develop and improve, this round of cleansing is setting the companies up for future success. It is very positive from an investor point of view

Crypto Market Today - Release the Kraken?

BTC continues to knock on the $23k, still days to go to see if this bullish trend continues or are we going to see a reversal?

Likewise, HIVE is looking to breach 40 cents... or else!

HIVE rebounded against BTC

SPS is now worth another penny more

• Supply expansion is back on track
• It is good that proportionally more are staked (or rather people didn't unstake after getting the reward) than liquid
• From historical perspective this is still near the bottom price
• From supply point of view... well still over 2 billions to be minted
• Fundamentally, how much is Splinterlands worth? How much is SPS worth in market cap? What are your thoughts and what comparable do you use?

DEC, GLX, FORGE

GLX: 2.9 cents (-0.3)
DEC: 0.0698 cents 🚀🚀
FORGE 0.068 cents 🚀 🚀
