Splinterlands has been going through a rough time over the last couple of weeks. A recent DHF proposal was made From Yabapmatt (co-founder & current President and CEO of Steem Monsters Corp) regarding a funding from the HIVE community. You can read the post here about detailed information. Thanks to the community of HIVE the proposal passed and as of now the proposal is successfully ongoing and receiving a fund of 2,777 HBD everyday!
Although, I must say, this was a very close call! Since, Splinterlands being one of the most active and most used game that is available within HIVE eco system. It had to go through such stuff of uncertainties, it was sort of unexpected, at least to me. Nevertheless, the funding is secured for the time being and that is the top most priority.

Congratulations Splinterlands
If I am being honest, as a player, user of Splinterlands the funding which has been secured from the HIVE DHF it is going to be either a blessing or a curse. I must admit, the funding was a much needed one at this point for Splinterlands. In order to run the operations and keep the company running it was a very very important step taken by Yabapmatt to come to HIVE community for funding. The reason I am referring this funding this way is because there has been no such actions taken by HIVE community in the past. Splinterlands trying desperately going towards the path of decentralization for quite some time. Which makes it one of the most unique and preferable gaming community within the ecosystem of HIVE.
There are several inquiries made in the proposal! Some questions were very legit and some were sort of not related but overall from day 1 of funding it has become a very concerning matter for Splinterlands. Some facts that are in my mind
- Splinterlands never faced this type of situation in the past
- This funding is from the community of HIVE, it will add some extra pressure towards the members of Splinterlands. Even though anything is likely to happen but even psychologically this would be a concerning matter for everyone within Splinterlands
- The community of HIVE believes in Splinterlands. Some might say this sum of money from DHF funding may not be enough but come on, no strings attached this money arrived to SPlinterlands. Even if this money was raised from any VC or in any other ways there would have been multiple clause, binding and God knows what! So this funding is acting as a blessing for Splinterlands.
- Splinterlands made mistakes in the past for not making some right choices which is why they are where they are but learning from those mistakes is a true gift that would act as a catalyst towards success in the coming days
There were few promises made from Splinterlands regarding the use of this fundings.
We are currently working on improving our onboarding experienceHiring a top web3 marketer and running a number of marketing and promotional campaigns to bring a significant amount of attention and active, paying users to the Hive blockchain through Splinterlands.- many more infrastructure developments to be made within the ecosystem of Splinterlands with this funding (Licenses is one of them)
Since inception of HIVE and Splinterlands I have witnessed countless success and dissapointments of the ecosystem. But above all we have survived them and even after going through bear markets the ecosystem is still thriving. HIVE as a blockchain is way more successful when it comes to technicality compared to other top blockchain but without much of a marketing it is going no where. The same goes for Splinterlands. Both needs the boost that it deserves in order to made it one of the best of its own place. We have a thriving community and users who believes in this blockchain and w sure can make it come to reality.
Lets make it happen and hopefully Splinterlands will use this funding in the right way and thrive in the coming days.
Best regards
