Hi guys. I just want to share some of my regrets when I started playing this game. I didn't have STARBITS token when I started the game, and I only had SWAP.HIVE in my wallet. That is why I purchased the majority of my assets through HIVE.

I was quite enthusiastic about purchasing those cards/assets. I noticed that my account was growing and that I was making progress in the game, so I purchased these assets and bundles without hesitation.

These are the assets that I purchased with my HIVE token at the NFTMart.
I used 40 HIVE to buy the 12 pack promo once, and I bought a bunch of the 4 HIVE.
However, STARBITS can be used to purchase these packets; a 12-pack costs 100,000 STARBITS, while a single pack costs 10,000 STARBITS.

These are the cards that I saw in a YouTube video and thought I needed. That's why I used my HIVE TOKENS to purchase these cards.

STARBITS PER HIVE PRICE

The current price of SWAP.HIVE to STARBITS in the HIVE-ENGING is 0.00030003 at the time of writing. For 0.30003 HIVE, you can get 1000 STARBITS.

As a result, I lost 1 HIVE TOKEN for each pack I purchased, and I lost 10 HIVE TOKEN for the 12-pack promo.

COMPARING THE PRICES

These prices of these cards and the image are taken from NFTMart.

HIVE

I don't recall exactly how much I paid for these cards, but I purchased 3 COLD PIZZA SLICE, 3 PIZZA BOX, and a COFFEE CUP for a total of 18.64 SWAP.HIVE.

STARBITS

If I choose the STARBITS option to purchase these cards, it will cost me a total of 57,500 STARBITS.

CONVERTING THE STARBITS TO SWAP.HIVE

I used Hive-Engine to convert the tokens. And if we convert the STARBITS to HIVE the total would be 17.251725 SWAP.HIVE.

If I had purchased them with the STARBITS token, I would have saved 1.388 HIVE.
This difference may not seem significant to some of you, but it is significant to me because I could have purchased another card with this amount.

AFTER THOUGHTS

After joining the discord and the Rising Star community, I started learning about the game more and realized the mistakes that I made. I could've avoided those mistakes if I did my research or asked questions. I hope you guys don't do these mistakes that I did, and if you don't know something about the game just go to the rising discord channel(here) and don't hesitate to ask them questions.
