I think its a good idea to have the DEC changed into HBD. There is a soft peg ofr DEC, but its just not as safe as HBD.

That's probably the better approach for a medium term, particularly since Splinterlands pools are no longer incentivized (other than from fees).

Great job on your goals.

Thanks. Slowly getting there, except the HBD one which will very likely be a sudden one.
