Splinterlands sells multiple products for a variety of in-game currencies. Use this as a reference to discover where they go. Per the passed proposal, after the update on 2/28/2026, the SPS DAO began to receive 100% of all proceeds from sales within the game's ecosystem until it has recovered its initial investment plus 20%. After that threshold is met, any additional sales proceeds will be split 50/50 between Steem Monsters Corp and the SPS DAO.
Stay tuned for more updates regarding the proposal to https://peakd.com/@sps.dao/sps-governance-proposal-keep-all-burns.
