RE: Observations From My Steem Monster 2-Way Market Test
@jarvie You bring up some very awesome points here... I agree with your analysis that prices were initially set by a few large buyers and completely agree that the more "rare" pieces have gained almost a "gotta have" feel to them. When we actually see the rules and the points and values assigned to each card, then I think we are going to find that a lot of assumptions were flat out wrong. I have personally been buying epics on down... I only have a few legendaries that I pulled initially from packs in the beginning (and one I got in a large deal as a sweetener)... I think you are going to be right in your implication that the legends are carrying too much value, but as you said we will find out when the rules come.
As far the as the pricing being reflected based on USDs... I think we are in a way too sloppy market for that (right now).... These are the very early days and the prices are still fluctuating based on the day... I do think you will be proven correct in that thought though and as long as they stick to the drop rates and the usd price per pack, then I think it will definitely be the case over time.
I look forward to your analysis and you video, if it is out let me know and if not, then if you can send it to me via DM that would be awesome!
