Splinterlands Crowdfunding Campaign on TRON and SEEDGerminator – I’m in!

Steem Monsters, or Splinterlands are running a crowdfunding campaign on the TRON blockchain at the moment. It started at 18:00 central European time.

The soft cap was 500k and it was reached within hour or two. The hard cap is 5M TRON, and at the moment is 16% reached. There is 13 day left for this campaign so if interested there is some time left, but not sure will they last 13th days.

What do I get?

The minimum investment is 500 TRON or SEED. SEED is a bit more expensive than TRON, 3.5 times to be more accurate, so if invested with SEED you will need a bit more funds. But the prizes are also a lot greater then the prizes with TRON. That is a minimum of 15$ or 40$. These approximate numbers.
Here are the rewards for this campaign:

Offer #1 - Contribute with TRX

For every 500 TRX contributed from a TRON wallet address, that address will receive tokens redeemable for:

• 8 Beta edition booster packs (retail price $16 USD),
• 5 randomly chosen, exclusive SEEDGerminator Limited Edition Promo Cards.

Offer #2 - Contribute with SEED

For every 500 SEED contributed from a TRON wallet address, that address will receive tokens redeemable for:

• 12 Beta edition booster packs (retail price $24 USD, ~33% discount vs. TRX),
• 100 randomly chosen, exclusive SEEDGerminator Limited Edition Promo Cards.

I did my investment with SEED. I got lucky and won a tournament and got the prizes in 500 SEED. These 500 SEED will get me a 60 beta cards and 100 promo cards.
The value of the 60 beta cards on average is around 25$. There are 4 special promo cards.

All of these have gold foils as well. SO, there is one card of each raryty, common, rare, epic and legendary.
The stats are known only for the legendary card.

This one is quite unique! It has a melee and a magic attack. Note that these stats are for a maxed card. I can see this card trading above 5$ easy.
The stats for the other cards are yet to come. So out of the 100 promo cards I’m guessing that the value of those will be somewhere between 20$ to 40$. Add the 25$ from the beta cards that is 45$ to 65$. Not bad at all for a 40$ investment.

As they noted, the rewards from the campaign should be before June.
But the biggest value from this campaign will be if they managed to get more players in the game, and create more demand for the cards. I can see this happening since the game is a real product and fun to play.

Excited to see how this will turn out.

All the best
