DEC UPDATE!! Easily Buy DEC From the Market!
**https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZEAskg6YBk6TxZnwfLnPA2Pehb9k8dxn7XyjT9w6BgFM/DEC%20GIF.gif**

Some of you may have noticed a new button that was recently added in the game header next to the DEC balance. This button will allow players to very quickly and easily purchase Dark Energy Crystals (DEC) from either the Steem Engine or Tron Watch markets.

One of the most important features of Dark Energy Crystals (and any crypto token really) is the ability to buy and sell them, but the process was much too cumbersome for the majority of users. You needed to first deposit STEEM into Steem Engine, place your trade on the market, and then withdraw the DEC back into the game. To top it off there weren't even any instructions on how to do any of this.

Now, thanks to a new service provided by [Privex](https://privex.io) (owned and run by @someguy123) you can now do all of the above with the simple click of a button without ever leaving the Splinterlands website!

![](https://i.imgur.com/GKhBNaT.gif)

You can simply enter the amount of STEEM you want to spend, or the amount of DEC you want to purchase, and submit the transfer through either Steem Keychain or Steem Connect, and the service will take care of the rest!

Please note that this service is provided completely by Privex (for STEEM purchases) and they merely facilitate the purchasing of DEC on already existing markets. The service currency charges a 5% fee to cover the fees for depositing and withdrawing from Steem Engine, the cost of running the service, and price risk.

Similarly, if you want to purchase DEC with TRX, you can do so easily and instantly through the Tron Watch Market instant-buy feature, though there is still one extra step to transfer them into the game afterwards.

At no time will Splinterlands ever sell DEC and we maintain that they do not have any monetary value and have no expectation of monetary value or gains in the future.

## Bringing Crypto to the Masses!

Ever since the beginning we have had a heavy focus on usability, which we feel is sorely missing from the majority of blockchain-based games and apps and which makes it difficult for the majority of people to get involved.

We want Splinterlands to be a place where anyone, with any level of skill and knowledge, can come, participate, and have fun while also taking part in the revolution that is cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

This addition is a small step toward that goal, but we still have a lot of work to do. Keep an eye out for what we have coming in the near future, and thank you to all of you who are the early adopters who make all of this possible!

I'm kinda the school of thought that if you have to say things like "At no time will Splinterlands ever sell DEC and we maintain that they do not have any monetary value and have no expectation of monetary value or gains in the future.",... Things may not be on the up and up as they appear... it's like a shady innuendo. Stop with the money grabs and focus more on building the product. Just saying.

We say it to help avoid being classified as a security by the US SEC. If we sell DEC or promote them as an investment that may provide capital gains we risk being classified as a security. People may ascribe value to them on third party markets, but we need to be clear that we never do. 

There's nothing shady about this, and it's funny that you tell us to "stop with the money grabs" when we are literally not selling anything with relation to the DECs. In fact, instead of selling anything we are giving that value to the players. Many thousands of dollars have been spent purchasing DECs on the market and buying cards on the market as a result of the DEC feature, and all of that money went to the players and not to us. More money is returned to players in this way than we make ourselves from pack sales on a daily basis.

There are certainly things you can potentially criticize us for, but calling a feature where we are not selling anything and returning value to the player base a "money grab" is just plain ignorant.

I appreciate setting me strait on this. I didn't realize the SEC was making things sound or appear scummy. My mistake. I appreciate the time you took for this comment as well. 
I do love splinter lands, and play kinda regularly, it's simple complexity keeps me wanting to casually play more. 
Back on topic, I do apologise again, I guess my subconscious sentiment is still in a negative mindspace from past experiences. Here's to hoping to a glorious future with many battles and memories made in the battlefield!!

Haven't got a chance to get my starter pack yet but have dealt a little with the steem engine exchange and it's confusing as heck for newbies.  Have to say this will increase dark crystal purchases a ton for you!! Thanks for sharing!!

Great update! It was definitely a little bit of a hassle to buy or sell DEC before this, so this is a great change when marketing the games towards the masses.
