Great. Thanks for explaining that in simple terms. Yes, I would think that this would boost Steem/Splinterlands exposure by making more people on other major blockchains (ex. Ethereum) aware of the cards, the game, and the unique benefits of the Steem blockchain itself. In fact, I recently got an airdrop of cards from another card game (using OpenSea) and saw that I had to pay the "gas money", which was actually like ~ $0.50 USD. I should even have to pay ANYTHING for a GIFT pack of cards. So that showed me very clearly the downside of the gas fee, and the upside of the zero fee for Steem.

The problem with gas is that it increases as a function of the transactions of the entire network, there are moments that it collapses, and it is not fun, the fee becomes exaggeratedly expensive, you simply wait for the blowout to pass and sometimes it lasts 1 week or more, it is the longest I have seen, sometimes just 2 days.
