SPS Airdrop Revisited

We have added a link on the SPS Management page to go back and claim unredeemed SPS air drops from Hive, Binance, Wax, or Ethereum assets.

Since the Steem and Tron bridges are no longer running, if you have air drop claims from those assets you will need to contact support and provide proof of ownership of those accounts by sending a transaction from them, and we will assist with redeeming those claims. You can check outstanding air drops via an API calls of https://api.splinterlands.com/players/sps_airdrop?address=. Note: All airdrops require the signature of the wallet you are claiming against, we will be unable to process any airdrops without a transaction.

Initial API Documentation

We have released some very basic API documentation. This is generated documentation, so there is not a lot of details on what each API does, but hopefully the third party developers can expand upon this information to make it easier for the community to build tools.

General Updates

Added back in the second layer of sorting when sorting by Price or BCX on the card market.

The Currency Activity code was cleaned up to resolve some uncommon issues where data would fail to display.

The card history API has been reworked to return a card transfer history. Previously this would try to return all transactions a card was noted on, which would almost always time out. Example link: https://api.splinterlands.com/cards/history?id=C4-139-OH0SNBNCPS

The deprecated API cards\reveal_quest_reward has been fully removed. This was from the prior quest system and no longer had any functionality associated with it.

Some performance improvements for how we pull card collection data.

Items Hotfixed into the Game Prior to the Release

Fixed an issue where Resurrect clearing Cripple was incorrectly also restoring current health (shortly after the last patch).

I don't know if it was addressed in the TH but I find it strange that there's nothing in the summary about the outrage from most of the community regarding the ridiculous high SPS requirements. Are they just going to ignore the players? Is this what this game has become? If those numbers don't drop drastically, I will lose all trust on the team.

There are no requirements, there is a curve space you should be asking for the equation, we know nothing yet. Maybe we get 95% from half those numbers, who knows?

I understand how they work. We know everything, sure the numbers can change but even half is too much. Champ 1 should be 100k at most.

sps at 2 cents now means that it does not cost much to get those "requirements". As ann added bonus: if the game does well over the next year+ that investment will also grow

Even at 2 cents, to get SPS for full rewards at champion 1, it's over $8k. That's just absurd...

(Edited)

No, absurd is arguing against a clever use-case for SPS that was also described in the whitepaper. SPS is at 2 cents, many people bought when it was 5x higher or more. You're getting a massive discount. Stop complaining and start buying.

I'm not against the use-case, I'm against the numbers. I've been here for over a year and a half, I saw SPS at much higher and I never sold. I always accumulated and bought. I have put money into this game as much as I'm confortable with, most in cards. I just can't spend $8k just to keep earning a couple dollars per season.

If we are going off what we know, we should push back on Yaba and have him raise champ staked SPS levels to the 600k estimated in the whitepaper.
We are 2 years since the whitepaper, this 'requirement' is neither new nor unexpected. If anything, it is less required than we thought before.

Do you not realize how gracious the team has been from the original white paper that said champ would be 600,000. That information was given out maybe 1-2 years ago. Not sure why you are mad now that they reduced it?

That's old information. They have very recently said that SPS requirements would be in line with the ones from tournaments. They are not even close. They straight up lied about that.

And it doesn't matter if it's in line or not. When almost no one has enough for the league they are playing, there's clearly something wrong with the numbers. It's one thing for those who have been unstacking and selling SPS but even those who never sold are very far away.

Absolutely, first it was power req...no problem seeing as it made sense but the SPS req is a step too far for me. Everything is shifting to the player even though the rewards have been nerfed to almost nothing these days. Cannot sell cards won in the game, not much SPS floating, fees are just passed on and increased, so players are getting less but asked for more and more whilst card values are dropping like a stone. There are many things I disagree with but this is a major hurdle

maybe I have outstanding airdrops. How do I claim them?

The new Invennium website looks great!
Even though there are not that many functions on the website, I would wish that the Splinterlands website looks like that... Little things like this would also bring new players imo 😉
