RE: ✫ Win A Share Of $5000 Plus ✫
As a card game goes, this has caught my interest. Just can't quite justify the cost of "real" money to join the party. $10 is small taters, sure. But the exchanges (that I have access to) do not deal with transactions at under $100 or even $50. We've been here on the Steem platform for over a year now, and still don't even have 150 Steem. For us, it's better to build up our power -as slow as it is going - versus using that balance to buy into a game. Even if that game pays out -eventually- in more Steem. It feels kinda selfish to use what little Steem we do have on a game, vs using it to vote on content to support the community and users we follow. Even if our power is week, it seems better used that way than on a game. If that makes sense.
Just got kinda confused a little by your wording.
You don't actually have to buy the Starter Set with cryptocurrency.
You can actually use your own credit card or PayPal.
Unless, if you mean that you have no access to these two either, then okay.
That's a very good point. Paypal is how I purchased my starter set.
Thanks for bringing it up as it completely slipped my mind when creating my response to @tillysfamilyfarm.
I completely understand. My growth here has been slow as well. The great thing about SM is that 100% of the investment can be earned back so I look at it as a placement holder for that $10 instead of a lost $10. It can be difficult to win back that $10 with just the $10 starter pack purchase but it can be done with steady game play in a relative short period of time via earning free daily cards and selling them on the market or placing in some novice/bronze level tournaments.
Even if you don't feel like buying the starter pack/ playing in tournaments there are plenty of giveaways here on the blockchain that award free cards. You could enter and win some and sell them on the market to help your Steem growth. There is no purchase needed for collecting / trading or selling SM cards.
