RE: Three Legacy $1 and $10 Starting strategy

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I can only imagine (for now) how much THREE tokens are being earned

Not as extreme as you might think. We seeded the initial rewards pool minimally knowing there might be bugs, and it responds to growth spikes only gradually. At present it's maybe halfway to post-launch equilibrium target.

The $1 entry is slower than we would like, but the $10 entry is even better than we hoped for.

You can see what players are earning on the leaderboards (they show the values distributed every 5 minutes) and benchmark that against the LP to figure out the value.

Perhaps it is also a good idea for some players to buy birth packs one at a time whenever they have enough tokens (HIVE, HBD, or HSBIDAO) to buy one.

Always available in our 'Marketplace' page:

$1 level is just the birth token, $10 and $100 levels also include other tokens that exist in game.

Thanks again for the information! 🤗

What I mean with "buying birth packs one at a time" is for players who like your game to buy a $1 birth pack on your game as soon as they have spare $1 worth of tokens accepted on your game. 🤓

By the way, I saw some THREE tokens on #HiveEngine bought by @pixydust (by @cryptounicoin420) from you (@sbi-tokens). 😏

That was a bit wild. We swapped 6% of the total supply to sbi-tokens in exchange for enough HSBIDAO to start the LP at a decent depth (deeper is better for stability) and sbi-tokens will be managing an orderly order book if we ever get there, but it's still at least 1000x away. We figure she thought buying out the order book and pricing it at 0.00000002 instead of 0.00000001 is a potential double when people start trading against it. We don't fault that thinking, so we're going to hold off on replacing the 0.00000001 level until we get a lot closer to that price being 'real' in the LP which is the actual market.

I think that @cryptounicorn420 (using her @pixydust Hive account) was just trying out the THREE token market that time. 🤔 I figured out when I saw that transaction that using HIVE, HBD, or HSBIDAO tokens to buy tokens on your game (such as birth tokens) is way cheaper. 🤓

Well that transaction was not at the real market price. HE order book does not support enough leading zeroes for our current value per token.

All the in-game price references ignore that orderbook and use the LP price against HSBIDAO, and then back into HIVE and HBD prices for things from there.

It looks like you mean that the "real" price of your THREE token will significantly go up over time (to at least 0.00000001 SWAP.HIVE per token). 🤓

That is not an opinion that we can publicly hold...

If it does happen, we are ready for it.

I assumed that when you created the THREE token and it gets into active circulation on #HiveEngine, its price would be anywhere from 0.00000001 SWAP.HIVE to thousands (or possibly even millions) of that. 😅

We can dream!

The LP was seeded with sufficient HSBIDAO to give THREE an initial market cap of roughly $600 (was originally planned for $900 but HIVE was higher than).

0.00000001 SWAP.HIVE would be a market cap of ~$2million (probably less because we plan to burn a lot of THREE on the way there). That's not altogether unrealistic, but it depends on so many factors outside anybody's control.
We develop to keep internal economy balanced and all the existing and planned pieces working correctly. Adoption and markets will take care of themselves. (Well, we will try attract players, but markets will take care of themselves.)
We just want to build a good game with sustainable economics.

It was fun while I ranked #1 on the Dowry for a few hours !INDEED on your game, while I still don't know the reason how I got there. 😅 @pixydust (operated by @cryptounicorn420) might be interested in this! 😎

The Sage and Dowry Leaderboards are designed to be incredibly volatile, with regular leader rotation.

Sage is pretty straightforward. It's every fertile alien in the game, ranked by time since their birth. In a future module there will be schools available that allow them to increase their 'sagacity' and educated aliens will start jumping ahead of non-educated aliens, but actual age will continue to be the dominant factor.

The dowry leaderboards are much more nuanced. When you build, 2/3 of the cost always goes into your dowry. When you get to top, you are selected as dowager and lose up to 2/3 of your dowry pool, resetting you much lower in the standings. On top of that, it prioritizes households with oldest fertile out of cooldown above oldest fertile in cooldown.

Any time you are selected as the sage, the baby shower gift (1/3 of the dowry pool from the dowager selected) goes into your dowry, so you can rocket ahead in the dowry rankings by being selected as the sage.

On top of that, every 'bend light' event participates in a progressive jackpot, and when it grows large enough its quite possible for the dowager to pay out 2/3 of their pool as baby shower gifts and still end up with a larger pool than they had going into it.

Needless to say, all that nuance creates a lot of opportunity for strategic positioning, with any player with fertile aliens in their household able to actively participate.

You do need fertile aliens to participate in the sage and dowager leaderboards, though. The cost to bend light may be a barrier for some players.

Yeah. I was just playing. Kind of mimicking what the bots do (and once in a while people do pay crazy prices for stuff). I actually don't care if those tokens never sell for that price. They probably won't. Just entertaining myself. !BBH !PIZZA !UNI

It reminds me of @savvytester wanting to buy some TESTO tokens (named by its issuer as "The True Test Token") on the #HiveEngine market !INDEED, even if it seems extremely unlikely for those tokens to sell at a profit. 💸😅 !WEIRD !HOPE !PIZZA
