Exiting DRIP

I'm about 2 weeks late to the recent change with DRIP, but so be it. In an abrupt change, they decided to go all-in on Splinterlands instead of diversifying in multiple crypto-based games. I've never been a fan of investing in one singular area, be it stocks, crypto, etc.

Naturally, the news wasn't well-received, and the price dropped considerably. If people want exposure to Splinterlands, they can invest directly into Splinterlands. BRO and LGN are already invested in it, and I'm invested in those already, so holding DRIP was redundant and far more risky for me.

Even with the price drop, I made my money back and then some, since I had staked it until staking rewards diminished, and then moved them to the liquidity pool. Since then, I had been liquidating half of my pool rewards and putting the other half back into it.

I ended up with around 380 HIVE back in my pocket once all was said and done. Since HIVE has been seeing price increases lately, now is probably as good a time as any to pull some profits and hold until the price climbs higher.

Maybe I'm wrong to pull out and should've stayed in, but for now, this seems to be the safer play.

I totally see why you did that. I thought about it too, but after some thought and a talk with a friend, I decided that I'd just leave it be. The amount I have doesn't justify selling, panicking or even thinking about. Not with the current price anyway, it was different when it was 1 DRIP = 1.8 HIVE (I think it was that at one point).

I have my fingers crossed for a revival

What has given you hope in the token? Or is it the value is now not worth selling? It doesn't give me hope of recovering at the moment

It's not really hope in the token, more like there's no point in selling it because I don't have a very large bag of it. And if it survives, the value will increase at some point 😊

Agreed, I didn’t have much in DRIP but seeing drop in value and rewards wasn’t nice but should have pulled it all out at the first news.

I don't want to say bad things about them, so I can only say your reason is solid and valid. It's not that they're bad or wrong; it's just that there's been too much disappointment from them.

I started to unstake my Drip when the cutting of the daily Hive drip was announced. For me the fundamental thesis changed and I have plenty of Splinterlands exposure via my in-game assets like land, cards and staked SPS, so the tiny SPS drip each day was meaningless.

For me it was all about the daily Hive drip, without that, I'm not confident in the project long term

I have sold my Drip as it unstaked and moved into the Holozing:Swap.Hive pool

Yeah, I'm curious if liquidity issues played a part in the move to SPS drips, but that's just speculation.

I'm selling too, it's just disappointing to see the move they made. Price really has tanked...

Yeah, I'm not surprised it dropped. At least it's worth something and not a complete rug like DHEDGE, but it's still less than ideal.
