New Rarity BID UI and Increased Bid limits

Last week we released MULTI-BCX bids and those are going great... you can check out this post I wrote on my personal account how I've been getting lots of multi-bcx bids fulfilled and how BIDS are the absolute cheapest way to buy cards

NEW INCREASED LIMITS

all users have had their bidding limts increased by 2x

  • In our Year plus experience of running a bid market we saw had no issues with bids that I can recall
  • Because there are over 400 assets to bid on it's really hard for people to make bids
  • Because with DEC and purchase authority there is NO WAY to get cards without having the money
  • Because users don't have to set aside hive/hbd as peakcredit to make bids
  • Therefore we increased the amount you can bid by double. Meaning if you are just starting off on PeakMonsters at level 1 on our system you can bid 2x whatever you have in your splinterlands DEC wallet.
  • As you increase in loyalty you can bid even more.

Just remember if you don't have the money to fulfill the FULL BID then the bid is removed from the bid market and put on hold.

INCREASE OF CARD QUANTITY TO BID

We moved to 115bcx a week ago
This increase comes because now we limit by BCX and not by cards

But that's not all... we are actually increasing the BCX limit for our loyal customers to

  • 505bcx for level 3 and above
  • 2020bcx for level 8 and above

But all users even if it's their first time using PeakMonsters can buy a max level of any card besides commons.

And in case you missed it we increased from level 1 cards (aka 1bcx max) to no limit on BCX aka 500+ bcx max

NEW FAST/EASY RARITY BID UI

You can place bids for all 48 Edition-Rarities all in ONE UI.
Price Quantity and Minimum level card for each rarity.

Don't forget: You can bid in USD or DEC

Each bid is still handled separate with a transaction needed on Hive. If you use posting authority it's quick and easy... if you require active key and hive keychain you'll need to authorize each rarity. Still way way way faster than before.

NO CHEAPER WAY TO BUY CARDS THAN WITH BIDS

The job of providing good valid bids for over 400 cards is not a small task... we hope that these upgrades help. If you have ideas on how to help increase BIDS let us know.
We believe firmly and have the stats to back it up that there is absolutely no way for the normal user to buy Splinterlands cards CHEAPER than the BID MARKET.

And of course sellers probably wanna start listing cards with PeakMonsters because you're cheating yourself out of money every day when you sell below bid value... our users thank you but also it is also not our intent for Splinterlands players to loose money.

nice!

Please add the BIDS to my "collection" so I don't have to go to "market" to check what are the highest bids for my cards.

looks nice. will try it

I really love these new rarity bids, they are awesome. And the DEC/USD values are also fantastic.

Just remember if you don't have the money to fulfill the FULL BID then the bid is removed from the bid market and put on hold.

I am a bit confused here. What balance will be used to execute the orders when available? Is it an account's CREDITS / DEC balance internal to splinterlands? That is what I thought this sm_set_authority purchase peakmonsters transaction was for.

But now looking at my profile:

  • Bid Market Commitments: $13.350
  • CREDITS: $17.61

But my sole bid is ON HOLD:

Any idea why?
