Making Money on Splinterlands - Is it possible WITHOUT the GOLD FOIL LEGENDARY Luck?

(Edited)

Making Money seems to be a hot topic right now (When is it ever not, LOL!)

Okay, so Splinterlands has moved over from STEEM to HIVE, finally! It was only a matter of time. Splinterlands has been one of the top DAPPS on dappradar for quite some time now and more and more people will be checking the game out. As people already know, it's not just any game, it's a game that lets you earn via various methods.

Gold Foil Legendary Cards

The most obvious one, the most glorious, shiny way to earn money on Splinterlands is to get a Gold Foil Legendary card or even GF epics or rares. But the GFLs earn you the most, no doubt. Just recently @shoemanchu sold a Gold Foil Prince Julian to @neoxian for $3500! No, that last zero was NOT added by mistake! But the problem with this is that, it depends on your luck and when you wanna make money strategically, you can not rely solely on luck, and that's what getting GFL is all about. So I'm not going to be talking about making money by getting and selling GFLs.

Win Battles

The other obvious way is by winning battles and earning DECs. But when you calculate that amount in USD, it's usually a very small amount if you're not playing a lot or if you're not winning tournaments. Most of the DECs I get by winning battles goes into buying cards, so in a sense you are not having to put too much extra money into the game to buy and upgrade cards. The DECs earned per season will usually be enough to upgrade a few commons and rares!

My Favorite, Trade!

Just look at the cards as any other cryptocurrency. You buy at a low, you sell at a high. It's that simple! In regular crypto, you don't really know what's a good "low" to buy in. But that is eliminated with splinterlands cards. You can easily go to Monstermarket and check the lowest price any card is being sold at at any time and how many of that card is available. Then when you see a card at a discount, you automatically know if it's a good deal or not.


Today I'll share the most recent trade profit I made just by trading Splinterlands cards!


A week ago, someone put up 6 Alpha Lyanna Natura and 6 Alpha Alric Stormbringer for sale at a very discounted price! He had listed the Lyanna Natura for $1.6 each.

And he priced the Alpha Alric stormbringer at $2.6 each.

Now, if you have any idea about card prices, you immediately know these Alpha summoners at these prices are a steal! So I immediately, without thinking twice, bought all 12 of these. I was faster than the card buying bots lol!


Then, after the switch to HIVE, I placed the Lyanna Natura for sale at $2.49 each and the Alric Stormbringer at $3.9 each (I could have sold much higher, but no regrets as long as I profited!) And guess what! They were swooped away very quickly!


I had bought the Lyanna at a total of $9.6 and Alric at a total of $15.6. These two added up to $25.2. I bought these over at MonsterMarket, so I got a 3% discount which brings down my total to $24.4. I sold them at a total of $14.94 and $23.4 respectively, total $38.34. Take 5% off that sale for market fees, and I received $36.3! So roughly a profit of $12 just by buying and selling 12 cards! So i'll let you figure out the possibilities yourself!

Last month I decide to play the game & really enjoy the game by playing practice matches. I managed to go bronze II league without buying summoners spellbook. The game seems pretty interesting to me. So I decided to buy the summoners spellbook. I ordered 10$ in paypal through a bd exchange. But the exchange didn't send my dollars to paypal. Actually it simply deceived me.
It looks like you are from bd. Can you recommend me a trusted website to buy hive/btc/paypal so that I can buy the summoners spellbook easily?

I'm so sorry to hear that bro. Yes, these scammy website are so annoying and they are everywhere. Have you joined the BDCommunity discord? You can easily buy using taka from some sellers there in the exchange channels.

Here is the link to our Discord Server.

You can buy $10 worth of almost any crypto. Not a lot of people are selling HIVE right now, but you could buy HBD. You could also talk to our moderators Reazuliqbal or Zaku on the server. They run the MonsterMarket and I'm sure they'll be able to hook you up with the summoner's spellbook.

If there's anything else you wanna know, you can also find me on the discord, or you could leave a comment here. I usually reply to all comments :)

Great! You can post in the spot-market channel that you need $10 worth of hive/hbd. Mybe buy $12-13, a little extra just to factor in the price fluctuations etc.
