Splinterlands is probably one of those games which has been doing their best to survive and thrive in the web3 gaming industry. So far the I must say, the game has been doing more than enough and still doing its best to improve further down the road. Among many improvements which are being made in the made lets talk about another noticeable branch of the game, which are the License Nodes. We will get to know what is happening with Validator Nodes further down the post.

• Community is everything

Over the past couple of months Splinterlands has shown us how community can make a difference. Community has been the pivotal point for the game to reach at this position. As almost every decisions that have been made regarding the game for the past couple of months, it has been solely taken by the community. The users who have put their efforts and money into the game. AKA stakehodlers who believes in the game and are here for the longer term. Stakeholders of SPS in hundreds and millions of SPS staked in their account. They make all the differences in the game.

Not only the stakeholders, there were influencers, players, investors who have suggested many changes/ideas which were than taken into consideration for the improvement of the game. Later they were implemented based on credibility and most effectivity in the game. Thus we are where we are today! Everything has been possible so far for the community and the team behind the game who have done their best day and night for the game.

What are validator Node License?

Players will have the opportunity to operate Validator Nodes, which will process transactions for the game. This will help to decentralize, distribute, and secure the world of Splinterlands.Those who obtain Licenses for their node operations will benefit from special daily SPS and Voucher rewards (allocated specifically for License Holders) for as long as they own their License.

Splinterlands Validators are live as we speak. Currently there are players who are actively creating blocks for the game and keeping the network live. Which is probably one of the most greatest achievement for a web3 game. Solely doing its task and making improvements along the way. The community is deciding what to do and how to manage everything as we speak.

• Active Validators

Here you can see in the image below, the top 10 active validators with their logistics. Aggroed marching the army with the top position with 321,508,032 SPS worth of votes and he is a super active validators with promising updates. The validators who are representing the top spots they are there for a reason. This is solely community who has decided who to keep at the top. Although, the more stake one has (SPS staked in their SL account/s) in the game, the more value they hold and the more their votes worth. Make no mistake, all the top validators who are there they have more than enough stake in the game and they are well known within the game, with good game presence. As anyone without game presence, being on this list is going be quite a big trouble. But to me as a player all these people deserve to be on that top list.

Anyone can be a part of this web3 game's network. All you have to do is purchase a License and stake it/run it. It is as simple as that. All you have to do is purchase it from the official page or from the secondary market, aka HIVE-Engine. To be honest, buying it from the official page is going to cost you 10x more than of secondary market. Which is probably why it is better to check out the official and secondary market before going out for this step.

As you may notice the chart and witness what is happened over the past couple of weeks. There seems to be a price surge happening during the month of February. At a point you can notice the price of a license was close to 600 Hive in the month of February. But as soon as the announcement of the main net went live and there were guidelines regarding the node came live the price has successfully went up and it has been climbing ever since. Which is one of the best thing to witness.

It is good to see that Splinterlands is slowly becoming a fully deentralized web3 game. It will be one of the pioneer in the web3 sector in the coming days. Since, it has achieved some of the most sought features and activities of many web3 games. While, keeping things in mind Splinterlands has much more to achieve in the coming days. This is just the beginning! Many more good achievements are to be made with the help of the team and the dedicated community that it has made over the years!

Nevertheless, if you are playing Splinterlands and have SPS staked in your account, do not forget to make your voices heard in this game. One of the best way is, to give your vote to the desired validators who you think is doing his/her best for the game. So move to this page Monstermarket and vote for your favorite Validators. Make no mistake, every vote counts!
