Fiery doing Fiery things...


At this point I am super frustated and annoyed. No not because Hive price is low. I see that as an opportunity and intend to keep buying Hve in the future as well. No what really despress me is Binance. For sume time I was buying Hive on binance and knew exactly how much Hive I will get for my money. But for a long time that has not been an option. Because Binance doesn't have a damn mica license.I suppose that I could just try another exchange. But I rather not give my information to another exchange. So instead of nice and easy way of buying Hive I am going really long and insanly expensive way- buying credits in splinterlands- buying cards at splinterlands.- selling cards for dec- trading dec for Hive in Hive engine. By doing this I lose insane amounts of money. For instance yesterday I bought some credits. With most of them I bought 3 copies of Grix Each copy costed me about 48 USD. I was hoping to sell each of them for 30. That would already be a massive loss but I would still get decent amount of Hive. But no one was buying. I wanted to sell those cards soon so I could get Hive and power up it. So I had to lower the prices again. And again. In the end I only got about 60 USD after selling the three cards. And so instead of few thousand Hive I wanted to power up I was able to power up only a mere 1100 Hive because 100 I had promised for prizes in a contest a week ago. And remaining 85 I will be giving away in a contest now. This makes me feel really bad. Buying crypto is already a risky investment. But when I buy crypto(Hive) I only get Hive worth a small part the money I spend. This wasted money frustates me to no end. I could either use that money for something else or get more Hive with it. Next time I will buy Hive I will try keeping my asking prices for cards longer. Because buying only less than a half my money's worth Hive is not a fun situation...But I guess I am really crazy...
Anyway enough ranting abaut this shit...
Another contest. A bit less prize(s) but same rules.
In the comments of this post reply with screenshots showing how much you have powered up recently. As long as you have powered up at least 100 HP at once you will be able to participate. But if you participate the prize is not guaranteed. Bigger power up than 100 Hive will not increase or guarantee the prize as well. I am not sure if I will give all 85 Hive to one person or split it up to smaller prizes. Even if you don't win any Hive in this contest I still may decide to give you a bit of Hive in the future but that is not promised. Once this post will reach a payout I will select the winner or winners and send away the prizes. Good luck everyone.
Splinterlands cards are not a good way to convert credits to Dec, not many people buy, and a lot of copies push prices down... You might want to use hive engine and go for btc.swap if you can buy somewhere btc and then convert to swap.hive and withdraw
thanks for advice. Like I said before I would rather not share my information with any other exchange but that may be necessary because the amount of money I lose selling cards is just unforgivable.
You can also use p2p trades for PayPal to btc, I used one some years ago, just pick a trustworthy one

In this week I have power up over 100 hive! 👊🎃
Thanks for making this amazing contest once again! 👌😎
Awesome. Thank you for participating.
Unfortunately, regulations bring more problems than benefits. I hope Binance obtains a license soon, and things go back to how they used to be.

I hope so as well. Thank you for participating.
Reading low Hive prices as a buying opportunity rather than something to moan about is a steadier take than most of the timeline manages.
thank you.
