Historically, dCity assets have been an interesting hedge against HIVE volatility. With HIVEUSD going up, people would sell off their dCity stuff to lock in USD profits. With HIVEUSD going down, they would buy up the stuff that became more attractive in USD terms (which would drive SIMHIVE and even HIVE-denominated card pricing up). Given the recent crypto crash, no wonder the interest in the game has been picking up recently.
With @ecoinstant as the most prominent dCity resource, a lot of focus is on his favourite pastime of citizen mining. I refuse to accept the "starter city" label because it is based on a false premise of low-cost being associated with beginners and high-cost with experts. These two attributes might corellate mildly but the core of gaming is rich people throwing money around for fun and sharp minds investing their time in picking it up, isn't it?
The Citizen Farming Villages are a time-intensive expert play aimed at a game's marginal area. They neither teach beginners much (although they can help with some of the very basics) nor provide great starting point for building a TOP400 balanced city (Ranking Rewards are where the money is).
I was having a hard time keeping up with the recent changes with the game and kind of fell out of it. This helps though in getting me back in!

Dear @jelly13, we need your help!
The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.
May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency,
