The 19+ Tokens of Splinterlands

When most Hivers familiar with the game hear the name Splinterlands, they think of the more well-known tokens such as DEC and SPS, or more recent additions such as VOUCHER and CHAOS. Even SPT is well-known to Hivers posting to the SplinterTalk blog or people tagging their posts with the spt tag. But how many people familiar with Splinterlands can say how many tokens exist for the game? While doing research on Hive Engine for another project I'm working on, I discovered the 19+ tokens of Splinterlands.

Hive Engine lists 22 tokens for Splinterlands:

• 1 of these tokens is earned from posting about Splinterlands and related content using any of these tags:
  • spt;
  • splinterlands;
  • hive-13323;
• 18 of these are official tokens for the game itself.
• 2 of these tokens support the players away from the game (especially via Discord);
• 1 token, SPF, is also a player support token, although it appears to be very likely a scam token; thanks to @pinkfloyd878 for letting everyone know about this particular token.

The website URL also doubles as SplinterTalk, the tribal front-end. SplinterTalkis used for blogging about Splinterlands and whatever is associated with the game. Anyone posting to SplinterTalk can earn SPT when their content is upvoted. As with LeoFinance, staked SPT determines the vote value for a person's upvote on a post or a comment.

Also, anyone posting Splinterland content from any other front-end-- whether it's LeoFinance, D.Buzz or anything in between-- can earn SPT by including one of these tags when publishing the content: spt, splinterlands, or hive-13323.

Descriptions about the Tokens from the DEX

DECR

Currently the info dialog box for DECR shows this description:

1. Step working in rewards program for players. 2. Be rewarded for holding shares.

At the time I was compiling my spreadsheet for Hive Engine data so I could search for content found in the info dialog boxes, this was the description for DECR:

List of token holders will be update daily. Top 10 token holders will share price pool monthly. We will start with 1000DEC pool and 2000SIM pool. DEC and SIM pools will increase daily until last day of the month.*** PLEASE JOIN US ON DISCORD***

Comments about the 3 Player Support Tokens

Comments about DECR

DECR may be real; at publishing time I'm still awaiting confirmation YEA or NAY.

In a comment I made to the post by "@"pinkfloyd878 at the time I noted this:

... at least 18 people appear on the Rich List, and there has been recent (if sporadic) activity at according to LeoDex. However, the link given by Hive Engine for more information about DECR appears to be outdated. Hive Engine shows that "@"geraldine04 issued or made DECR.

Comments about SGT

SGT is a token created by "@"chansetheguy for use at the Discord server noted later in this comment.

While I was doing research and discovered the post by "@"pinkfloyd878, "@"chansetheguy gave me some context regarding SGT. This comment comes from his reply to my comment to "@"pinkfloyf878:

The Splinter Games Token is not affiliated with Splinterlands but is a token I created to lock up the name in case I want to use it in a future system for the Splinter Games discord.

Splinter Games is a Discord based service designed for Splinterlands players to hangout, chat, and wager DEC or SPS against other players who want to do the same! It contains a variety of activities such as real in-game Splinterlands matches, dice roll style betting, and paper-rock-scissors style betting. All activities available through the service are created to be played by players against other players, rather than against the house. There is also a faucet system which allows any registered player to earn free DEC and/or SPS!

Comments about SPF

SplinterlandsFan (SPF) appears to be a player support token which is unaffiliated with Splinterlands. However, if the post by "@"pinkfloyd878 is correct, SPF could be a scam token:

Why is this a scam?
Brand new token, no official announcement from "@"splinterlands or "@"aggroed

"@"alikcrs is the issuer of the token... Please reply here if I got this wrong and its not a scam.

^{(Un-mentions added)}

Just My Two Sats

All Splinterlands players need DEC and SPS to play the game immediately. It takes a while to earn enough to buy the other tokens, although airdrops are available to help accelerate the earnings process.

Liqidity pools exist for the blogging token SPT and the gaming tokens DEC, SPS, and VOUCHER. Other pools may be created as needed, and the old-timers among us may know if pools had existed for other gaming tokens and they dried up.

The 18 gaming tokens are cannot be staked, and they cannot be delegated.

While this post is not meant to be comprehensive, it puts in one place many details concerning the official (and unoffical) tokens for Splinterlands.

While any of the gaming tokens can be purchased or earned, there may be other ways they can be acquired. For any details or insights into the gaming tokens which should be added to this post, feel free to add them in the comments.
