RE: SplintX Progress Report 0.2.0 | Splinterlands Market built by ~The Splinterns~ Summer Internship

in #splinterlands4 years ago

It definitely looks great! Like the clean look of it all and it definitely is super fast. I don't mean this as a criticism, I'm sure it's my own lack of information/understanding, but how is SplintX different from the market in Splinterlands or PeakMonsters? Maybe an About page to help establish what it's for, and the roadmap like @gniksivart mentioned...

Sort:  

We plan on adding a "SplintU" (like Splint University) tab that features how to guides and our PeakD content, so yeah i think our roadmap/about would fit nicely there. Good thought, thanks! @gniksivart

Awesome!

What's the ultimate use case of SplintX though? How will it be different to the normal market in the game?

Our primary focus has been implementing the basic market features you see on SplintX now. Other basic features we have yet to deploy include listing cards for sale, transfer, burn and combine actions.

As far as differentiating goes, we want SplintX to be a Splinterlands hub just as much as it is a market. That means it's a one-stop-shop for all Splinterlands info like: in depth card/player/game/market stats that you can't get anywhere else, how to guides for new players with links to external resources such as hive-engine and then some strategic content for vets. All tied together on a clean, simple interface.

The "ultimate use case" you speak of is our vision of buying and selling in different currencies other than DEC or credits. We'll probably implement the ETH market 1st, with intentions of adding SWAP.HIVE, among other possibilities, down the road.

Ahhhhhhh, that's so much clearer! Thank you for this!

Yeah, I think this would be awesome to put in a page on the site. It's definitely a good looking site so far... excited to see some of these other features, and definitely excited to buy and sell cards for other crytpo.
