It's actually a terrible decision to do that. Voucher is part of the system and I don't know why someone can transfer in but cannot transfer out. I don't really have that much Faith in splinterlands and when the market gets better I'll probably just take profit and leave.
It's hard getting that one card to actually complete a set, I still have my Quora at level two and it took over a year to get it to that level. I'm certain you'll actually be able to get yours to level 3 soon enough.
The changes aren't really favouring real players, but I guess splinterlands are bent on actually keeping in the value at the expense of everything.
The cost to unlock the soul bounds is just so high as well, and over time I think it's going to be a loss. I think you're right, it may be near the time to consider jumping ship once the prices are better.
I think they made it so high so that people wouldn't even consider it. So I think the whales and collectors can afford to do so. I'm considering just off everything when the market gets a bit better, it's why I bought a few cards recently in the past 4 to 5 months ago, then just sell off when the price get better
