In the last year, I have been continuously focusing on increasing my SPS stake. In the last year, I got the opportunity to accumulate more SPS by either purchasing it from the market or as diesel pool rewards. Earlier the diesel pool rewards were in the form of DEC but now it is in the form of SPS. It is not much though but good to have something than to have nothing right. Most of my DEC holdings are inside Diesel pools and the rewards are pretty decent I should say.

In the last week, I was even thinking if I should start playing the game once again. I know the revenue from the rentals is better and it is also passive. I was wondering if it would be better to instead play the game and earn rewards. I will still have more thoughts on this. Even if I switch to this model, most likely I would be finding someone who can play my deck instead of me directly playing the game. I heard from some of my friends that some cards are very cheap in the market to rent and play than buying and holding them.

100k SPS

This goal is still intact and I have been able to push close to 1000 SPS every week. This is good for me to complete the goal in another 10 weeks time as I mentioned in the previous update. I have completely forgotten about the fact that I'm also getting some Vouchers from the game. I believe these vouchers are also an additional income and I have to include that too while calculating. I don't know where else I can use my Vouchers and if there is a point in holding the Vouchers too. So, for now, I'm selling my vouchers but later when there is a need I would consider purchasing Vouchers back from the market.

I was able to power up close to 1000 SPS this week as well. Every week I'm doing this and my SPS stake keeps increasing. As you can see I have less than 11k SPS to complete my goal of 100k SPS. I think I also have a decent Voucher balance that I have not sold so far. I would be selling that in the market and converting that to SPS too. I'm guessing next week probably when I write this article, I might be doing more SPS staking compared to this week. Let's see.

I was also checking my rental income from Splinterlands, I noticed a slight increase in the rental income. Probably towards the end of the season, the income is very good and after that, it is still decent. Overall the income from rentals has improved a little bit is what I feel. That is still my only source of DEC income from the game and I have also been holding my DEC tight looking for the right moment to book some profits.

GLX is also another good source of income for me based on my SPS stake. I'm hoping to soon start building my GLX stake after the SPS goal is over. I'm thinking of staking GLX directly instead of converting it to SPS as I do it right now to increase my SPS stake.
