Splinterlands Stats | August 2021 | Games, Players, DEC and Price
Splinterlands has literally exploded in the last month! All numbers are up.
Let’s take a look at the latest data.
One of the main things that is driving the Splinterlands exploding growth seems to be the SPS token, but also the overall trend in NFT gaming. Building for a three years also helps 😊.
The following topics will be covered:
- Number of games played
- Number of active daily players
- Number of active monthly players
- New accounts created by Splinterlands
- DEC supply
- DEC price
- SPS price
Number Of Battles Played
Here is the chart of the daily numbers of games played for the period.
The growth in the numbers of battles is so big the numbers before a month are almost not visible! Till recently there was around 100k to 150k battles per day and in the last days there is more than 4M battles per day. This is x30 for the battles.
Note on the numbers: Until August 11, 2021, the numbers for the battles are from the data on the blockchain. After that Splinterlands have made changes on the way how they store data, and the numbers are from the Splinterlands API. There is some data for battles but the numbers are much lower than the ones from the API that are presented above.
Number Of Active Players
This is one of the most important metrics for every dApp, how many active users have there are. Here is a data for daily active users [DAU] and monthly active users as well [MAU]
A similar chart as for the numbers of battles. Up until July 2021, Splinterlands had somewhere between 5k to 7k daily players. Then these numbers exploded in July and continued to grow in August as well, reaching 170k daily active players in the last days. At this rate we might see one million DAUs for Splinterlands soon.
The note for the data from the battles applies here as well. In the last month the numbers for DAUs are from the Splinterlands API. The data on the blockchain is lower.
Probably some players are using older version and their transactions are recorded on the blockchain while the new ones are not, or maybe something else how is SL managing the transactions now.
New Hive Accounts Created by Splinterlands
Here are the new Hive accounts created by Splinterlands.
In the past Splinterlands was creating somewhere between 500 to 1500 new accounts per month. In July there was 20k new Hive accounts created, and in August a 163k accounts created. I’m amazed by the new numbers of accounts created in one month. It is probably the highest number of accounts created per month since the beginning of the blockchain.
DEC Supply
Another interesting metric is DEC supply. DEC is burned when buying potions, orbs, skins and guilds upgrade. The DICE edition is exclusive bought with DEC as well and it is burnt. That edition was sold out recently. Few other things as well.
On the other side the higher the price of DEC is the more is printed.
Here is the chart for the all time DEC burned vs created.
Note the chart is on a logarithmic scale.
We can notice that in July and August there was an increase in the amount of DEC burned (yellowish line) but then a drop. After August 18th, there is much less DEC burned, and for the first time in years there is days with zero DEC burned. This is most likely because the DICE edition is sold out and that was the main sink for DEC.
On the other side the price od DEC remained high and the printing rate of DEC is at all time high.
Here how this has affected the supply of DEC in 2021.
At the start of the year DEC had around 630M in supply and it remained at those levels until July. Then the supply started decreasing (aggressive DICE buying) and in the last few weeks the supply spiked from 475M to 846M now. Around 15M DEC is being added per day.
DEC Price
What about the DEC price?
Here is the chart on all time DEC price in dollars [$].
DEC is way above its peg now trading in the range of 0.007 and 0.008.
A zoom in chart, for better visibility.
We can see here as well that there is an overall increase in the DEC price in the last period. At this point the price of DEC is dependent on the price of SPS, as DEC holders are eligible for the airdrop. But also from the DEC supply.
SPS Price
Here is the chart for the SPS price.
SPS has been around for more then a month now. At start the price spiked to almost 1$ and then it stabilized itself to around 0.4$.
All the best

Good work, nice stats
Thanks!
The hype, the hype. Probably it will worth even less in the future, but we will see. Currently it is $0.338 USD. I currently have 132.850 SPS, which currently worth approximately $44.97 USD. No matter what, I stake it all, so it is all staked.
SPS has quite a high inflation in the first year. As everything patiance is the key ;)
Good to see the explosion. What rate can we conceivable expect going forward. Could we see these numbers double again in Septmeber?
That would be massive.

In terms of MAUs probably yes. The first days of Septmeber are having great numbers!
So much this:

Check out the last post from @hivebuzz:
Hi thanks for all the details.
Is there a way you can create a DEC chat with 3 years price history as Hive engine shares only last 2 month data. It would be a cool thing.
There is a chart above with 2 years and 4 months.
Sorry,
I just went through post very fast and saw the other two charts.
Thanks :)
This is all such cool stuff. Have you heard any more about the SPT problems with payouts? You got me really interested in that on one of your previous posts.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
There is some migration to a new contract. I havent got any yet.
good to know. I trust they will get it sorted out but I miss getting my little pay outs lol
Thanks so much for all these up to date numbers and a great analysis :D
Wow thanks for the thorough analysis!
Splinterlands literally exploded in the last month? It's in tiny pieces everywhere? Yikes.
Obviously the DICE packs being sold out has a huge affect on the DEC supply... but also I'm (and I'm sure others) are totally hoarding it in our accounts to bump up our SPS airdrop numbers. Once a new edition replaces DICE, I'm not super sure we'll see that much DEC burned.
Excellent publication. My question doesn't have much to do with the post, but do you know how to delegate to an SPT account?
I want to delegate X sp to @user
Where X is the amount of SP and @user is the steem user you want to delegate to. For example:
I want to delegate 100 sp to @dalz
@tipU will answer with a delegation link. Hope this helps!:)
Steem? WTF 🤣
Crazy to see how those charts explodes. Splinterlands is a good game, so their growth is well deserved but I expected a more "smooth" increase. Will keep an eye on this development, really interesting to see how Splinterlands evolves. Great article btw, thanks for sharing!

I wasn't even expecting @steemmonsters accoutn to have this much RC. I guess they had lots of account creation tokens claimed in the past. There's only 9 pending claimed accounts now.

@dalz! I sent you a slice of $PIZZA on behalf of @d-zero.
Did you know you can earn $PIZZA through Hive-Engine Diesel Pools? (1/10)
I love the stats, but am worried that we might loose some new players as it is very difficult to progress from the beginning if you don't invest money. Monster cards became vert expensive!!
Over 30 million matches per day now?!
Remarkable growth.
