Huobi Global lists Splinterlands
Finally, cryptocurrency exchange Huobi Global lists Splinterlands (SPS) with USDT pair. Deposits for SPS began on August 1. Cryptocurrency withdrawals will begin on August 4, at 11 CEST. Splinterlands is a game based on Blockchain technology. It also allows players to create a collection of cards with different characteristics. Apart from that, he draws inspiration from games like Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone, where he fights other players. It is a digital collectible card game.
It’s a game where players can buy, sell, and trade, just like in physical card games like Magic the Gathering, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh. Splinterlands was created because when games went digital, players lost their ability to actually own their assets (or trading cards). Blockchain technology allows players to freely own and trade their digital assets.
