Splinterlands is one of the best games on Hive Blockchain. I would even go further and say that it is one of the top Play2Earn games in the market. One important lesson that Splinterlands taught us is that we shouldn't be selling our assets before it is time. I understand there can be bad times for the game and there can be no progress. It can happen for not just games for many crypto projects. But one best thing is that as long as the game is still intact and keeps going, we should hold tight.
I started my journey on Splinterlands a little late. But I'm glad that I did because it was an exciting journey. There have been several instances where I stopped playing and felt the gameplay was more time-consuming or boring to do the same tasks again and again. But for me, it can be the case because I have to focus on coding other projects. But that's not the case for everyone and I cannot think that everyone would feel the same. There are so many investors in the game who would like to see some progress in the game and some new features happening. One of the biggest advantages of this game is that it gives a very strong gameplay and it will keep people occupied. All the additional earnings that people get from this game are different.

Holding is the power
I have felt about selling my assets several times. Whenever there was a need for me to have some money, I used to wonder if I should be selling my Splinterlands assets and liquidating. I usually get these thoughts only when I feel that I'm not even playing this game so there is no point in me holding the assets. Having these thoughts during a bull market is good but it is not wise to have these thoughts during bear markets. I have seen many people selling all their cards during the bad times and regret it.
I still remember that during the last bull market, my account worth was close to 55k dollars. It was just the cards alone. The SPS and DEC that I had was extra back then. It was all before the CL packs came into existence. The reason was that there was a huge demand for the cards and the price was very high. When CL packs happened, it created a lot of cards in the market and the demand for the old cards was gone. But I still think that the value of my portfolio on Splinterlands game is still very decent. I'm able to see a good value and it keeps increasing as the market is also responding well.
I have been holding my assets till today and even though I don't play the game, I try to lend my cards and SPS to get some passive income from the game. That has been rewarding so far. Lending cards was not a great revenue recently but now people say that it has improved again. I've listed my cards for rentals again hoping to see some good rewards coming my way. Overall I think holding the NFTs had been the best decision I have ever made and hopefully the next bull run should give us all some good fortune.
