Grain Factor

By azircon on 6/22/2025

Grain Factor

As per the land whitepaper: The Secret of Praetoria each land resource has different production difficulty based on the Production Point (PP) of the cards you stake into the plot. Grain is the easiest resource to produce because it has the highest production rate (0.02 units per Production Point per hour). Other resources like Wood, Stone, and Iron have lower production rates, making them harder to farm. Here is the Production Rate and Relative difficulty in tabular form:

Resource Production Rate (per PP per hour) Relative Difficulty
Grain 0.02 Lowest, easiest to produce in volume
Wood 0.005 4x harder than Grain
Stone 0.002 10x harder than Grain
Iron 0.0005 40x harder than Grain

When you go the Land SPL Stats webpage, the first thing you see in the boxes with resource prices, and followed by a plot we call The Grain Factor Plot, looks very similar to the plot above.

The Grain Factor measures how a resource’s (Wood, Stone, or Iron) market price compares to its production difficulty relative to Grain in Splinterlands. It is calculated by converting the resource’s market price into its Grain Equivalent (the number of Grain units it’s worth based on Grain’s current price) and dividing that by the resource’s production difficulty (4x for Wood, 10x for Stone, 40x for Iron). A Grain Factor of 1 means the resource’s price aligns with its production difficulty relative to Grain; higher or lower values indicates the resource is fundamentally overvalued or undervalued.

The fundamental premise of this chart is the understand the price of every natural resources with respect to the price of Grain. That is why Grain price in this chart is horizontal white dashed line (highly distinct and visible) along the X-axis at 1.0. We call this the Grain Baseline. If a resource is trading above the grain baseline it is fundamentally overvalued. If a resource is trading below the grain baseline it is fundamentally undervalued. So currently Iron and Wood are undervalued by about a quarter (25%), while Stone is overvalued by about a third (33%).

Explanation based on Today's market price

I find it is best to understand the concept by calculating something simple. We can look up today's resource prices on the same landing page at Land SPL Stats. We can just put 1000 in each resource boxes, one at a time, and hit enter.

Resource Price (DEC per 1000) Price (DEC per unit) Grain Equivalent Production Difficulty Grain Factor
Grain 7.87 0.00787 1.0000 1 1.00
Wood 23.93 0.02393 3.0399 4 0.76
Stone 104.37 0.10437 13.2592 10 1.33
Iron 236.37 0.23637 30.0356 40 0.75

So, those numbers at the right most column are the Grain Factors for today. @beaker007 started collecting this data from March 20, 2025. We now have more than three month worth of data, which you see on the landing page at Land SPL Stats and that is the same plot (with a twist) on the first image of this post.

Stone Anomaly

I am introducing a new term, as I love to do that! :)

People have been observing this for a while, but no one defined it. Therefore, I see an opportunity to create a new term, a new factor! If you look at the grain factor plot historically, you can easily see that stone remained overvalued by a large amount almost always. If we consider just the production difficulty, Stone is not the most difficult resource to produce, that is Iron. So all else being equal, Iron should be the most expensive resource (and it is if you look at the raw price), but it is not relatively speaking in terms of Grain Factor. Stone Anomaly addresses this problem.

Stone Anomaly is defined as the difference between the price of Stone in Grain Factor, and the average price of Wood and Iron in Grain Factor. In other words, it is the shaded area in the first plot, and the plot below.

I also plotted the numerical value of Stone Anomaly as a step plot in light blue with labels for better visualization. Notice the Stone Anomaly is much higher after the launch of midnight potion, averaging 0.77. Earlier it was 0.49 on average. In fact if you look carefully at the plot, some of the high number at the beginning of the data collection could be considered edge effect. Majority of the time in April and May, the Stone Anomaly was about 0.3.

Cause of Stone Anomaly

Here I can get into pure speculation, something that I don't like to do often. However, since this is not directly price speculation, I guess it can be okay. I can't find, any stone whale holding stone to artificially inflate the price. So my guess is that the 32% of Praetoria that is currently active, is depleted in Stone, and therefore, the 78% of Praetoria that is currently inactive, is enriched in Stone. Overall, it must even out, because the process of creation of these resources are by random number generators which ensure normal distribution.

Now, I have no idea if this is correct or not, but it is the best educated guess that I can come up with the data I have. It is not possible to know exactly until more of Praetoria is active. Let us get there quickly though!

Grain Factor Table

I modified/rearranged the data, that can be downloaded from the first page of Land SPL Stats, and made a simpler table. I also calculated two additional columns. The Average Wood-Iron column is just an average between the Wood and Iron column, basically represents a mid-point between the two resources. Stone Anomaly, the last column, is the difference between Stone Grain Factor and the Av. Wood-Iron.

Anyone can download this table and data and make their own analysis. Hope this helps!

Finally three definitions:

Production Difficulty measures how much harder it is to produce a resource (Wood, Stone, Iron) compared to Grain in Splinterlands, based on the ratio of their production rates per Production Point per hour (Grain: 0.02, Wood: 0.005, Stone: 0.002, Iron: 0.0005).

The Grain Factor shows how a resource’s (Wood, Stone, Iron) market price compares to its production difficulty relative to Grain in Splinterlands. It’s calculated by dividing the resource’s Grain Equivalent (its price in Grain units) by its production difficulty (4x for Wood, 10x for Stone, 40x for Iron), with a value of 1 meaning the price matches the difficulty.

The Stone Anomaly refers to Stone’s overvalued market price on the basis of Grain Factor, it is measured as the difference between Stone Price in Grain Factor and the mid-point or average Wood-Iron price in Grain Factor.

I should be happy then, as so many of my 200 lands were Stone? Nice!

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/22/2025

Stone is currently the most valuable resource. I recommend putting the stone in internal pools paired with DEC, as opposed to holding and selling them. Stone also get the maximum fees due to high trading volume.

image.png

mightyrocklee's avatar @mightyrocklee 6/23/2025

Actually I sell it mostly for DEC, but pool may be a good option too. I will start to allocate 50% to it.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Good idea. In flat to down market, pool does better

mightyrocklee's avatar @mightyrocklee 6/23/2025

I do have much less as I sell stone to get aura. I got loads of stone and need iron and wood instead.

captaindingus's avatar @captaindingus 6/23/2025

Heck yeah, that's awesome!! But are they operational??

mightyrocklee's avatar @mightyrocklee 6/23/2025

actually, I still got some 7-8 stone ones with only one card.

bozz's avatar @bozz 6/22/2025

I still haven't had time to dig into my production and see if I can add some pieces here and there. I did some cursory evaluations, but not the deep dive that I have been thinking about taking. I'll probably still be saying that three months from now, so I really only have myself to blame...

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/22/2025

I hope you are claiming your production every 7 days. Otherwise plots get full and they get lost

bozz's avatar @bozz 6/23/2025

Ah, I probably don't. Good reminder!

beaker007's avatar @beaker007 6/23/2025

Its slowly turning around, market is doing its thing...

one thing that could be interesting, if you have runi and its on a natural resource, you should move it to the resource that is above grain baseline. This way you get the best out the 100% boost.

And i think there is not a cooldown anymore on moving runi around... or is there still the 3 day cooldown?

tarabh's avatar @tarabh 6/23/2025

So it seems that the market is starting to address the "stone anomaly", I guess that is to be expected now that you have flushed it out into the open recently.

I really enjoyed the deep dive into Beakers Land tool on Splinterlands 101, it's a very powerful tool, but one I didn't full grasp until it was explained fully

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Yes it is very powerful tool. The best there is on land related stuff. I am glad you are using it.

captaindingus's avatar @captaindingus 6/23/2025

I'm glad you made a post on this, more people will see it now :)

This is the PP Based Price Metric or "PP Value" which I've been posting about since March :)

Cheers to you and @beaker007 - I'll keep posting the Land Updates and the weekly Snapshots on Wednesdays and I'll be keeping an eye out for you and beaker to post updates as well :)

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Question is why there is no net turning on of plots at land for last 3 months. I know that I have turned on 250 plots during this period. But that also means someone else must have turned off many plots to balance my share. Because overall it is perfectly flat.

image.png

Investigate this is you have time. I don’t know why.

captaindingus's avatar @captaindingus 6/23/2025

My hypothesuspicion (do you like that Portmanteau?) I do and it just hit me as I was typing lol!

I believe it is due to the combined efforts of yourself, beaker and Jedo.

Thanks to you guys, I personally deactivated a lot of plots that were underperforming and drastically increased my Efficiency!

However... this means my "active" plots dropped from like 28 to 9 (10 now?)

This is probably happening across the Regions and why it's a Zero Sum equation at the moment.

Nothing more than extrapolation of data from you, my personal experience and the community reaction to your efforts.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Quality is better than quantity.

That has always been my motto!

captaindingus's avatar @captaindingus 6/23/2025

Yessir - it was definitely due to the eye opening from you, beaker and jedo that I was like "ok... it's time to rip the bandaid off!"

Helped a ton!!

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Spread the word. Even activating one plot in a good way is better than zero plot.

vimukthi's avatar @vimukthi 6/23/2025

Thank you for the charts. I have been holding myself back from buying more Stone. I only buy enough to use on my few Plots. The rest I'm happy to buy more freely as they have a lower Grain Factor.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/23/2025

Stone currently is the most valuable resource, by far. It is about 70% better :)

beelzael's avatar @beelzael 6/24/2025

I was wondering the other day, but didn't have time to calculate: When would it make more sense to produce grain instead of wood? It's not the Grain-Factor-Line, I calculated that once I think. If you know, great, if not, I'll calculate another day.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/24/2025

It’s a variable answer depending on situation. But for you, until grain is 4X expensive while wood being constant, a scenario that is highly unlikely to nearly impossible

beelzael's avatar @beelzael 6/24/2025

So, basically when wood reaches a Grain Factor of 0,25. That is indeed unlikely, for now and hopefully forever.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/24/2025

Yes. Highly unlikely.

We have 7.3 Billion of surplus grain. It will take more than a year to burn through that stockpile. We can forget about grain rallying anytime soon

beelzael's avatar @beelzael 6/24/2025

So, new strategy - buying a lot of stone plots, rent cards, buy grain for them and drain that surplus while hammering down stone price, destroying the system. And then become rich with the two grain plots I have. Evil laugh, the curtain falls.

azircon's avatar @azircon 6/24/2025

Unlikely. The only person who can manipulate land market is Vugtis.

He alone owns 1.2 Billion grain and 24 million stone

beelzael's avatar @beelzael 6/24/2025

Unlikely, but not impossible! Just watch for around... 53 years and 2 months. Estimated.

Hive prides itself on decentralization, but when accounts like @themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote & Co dominate curation trails, suppress dissent, and allegedly manipulate rewards through coordinated downvotes or alt-account networks, it undermines the very ethos of the platform. Here’s what we do know—and what we can do:


1. Accountability Is Possible—Because Blockchain Doesn’t Lie

Hive’s blockchain is immutable. Every transaction, vote, and curation trail is publicly verifiable. Tools like PeakD’s wallet explorer and curation dashboards allow anyone to audit activity. For example:

  • Pattern Analysis: Downvotes from high-HP accounts clustered on specific content often reveal bias, not merit.
  • Reward Manipulation: Allocations from apps like reward.app (see your data) highlight disproportionate gains for certain users, raising questions about fairness.

Your Power: Use these tools. Share findings. Demand explanations. Transparency is your ally.


2. The Illusion of Control vs. Collective Action

No single account “controls” Hive—but influence is concentrated. High Hive Power (HP) grants outsized voting weight, and when wielded without accountability, it stifles diversity. Yet Hive’s strength lies in its users. If enough voices unite:

  • Downvotes Lose Power: Engagement, not suppression, drives visibility.
  • Rule-Breakers Face Consequences: Communities can blacklist malicious actors or advocate for protocol changes (e.g., penalizing alt-account farming).

Call to Action:

  • Tag Wisely: Use hashtags like #Bilpcoin or #BPC to earn rewards while amplifying transparency-focused content.
  • Vote in Governance: Proposals can reform reward systems, curation mechanics, and anti-abuse protocols.

3. The Exodus to Blurt/Steemit Is a Warning

Many creators have fled Hive for platforms like Blurt (no downvotes) or Steemit (centralized but user-friendly). This isn’t just about “toxicity”—it’s about ecosystems valuing participation over punishment. Hive risks losing talent if it fails to address:

  • Silencing Tactics: Downvotes without dialogue erode trust.
  • Reward Equity: Are curation systems favoring insiders? Data (like your reward.app logs) suggests scrutiny is warranted.

Opportunity: Hive can evolve. Imagine a platform where downvotes explain their rationale, or where rewards prioritize quality over alliances.


4. Bilpcoin’s Role: Exposing Truth, Advocating for Change

The Bilpcoin team remains committed to:

  • Auditing Power Structures: Publishing transaction trails, downvote clusters, and reward disparities.
  • Empowering Users: Rewarding posts that spark critical dialogue (add #Bilpcoin to your content!).
  • Calling for Reform: Pushing witnesses and developers to prioritize fairness in governance.

Final Thought: Safety Through Unity

Do you feel safe? That’s a personal answer—but collective action can restore agency. Hive’s future depends on:

  • Speaking Up: Share your experiences. Tag posts with #HiveTransparency.
  • Voting with Your HP: Support accounts advocating accountability.
  • Demanding Change: Push for curation reforms, alt-account audits, and community-driven moderation.

Hive’s greatest strength isn’t its code—it’s its people. Let’s build a platform where truth isn’t downvoted but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.

@themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts:

Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt-account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos.

Key Concerns:

  1. Systemic Manipulation:

    • Coordinated downvotes from high-HP accounts suppress dissent, creating a chilling effect on free expression.
    • Automation and alt-account networks allegedly exploit rewards, distorting organic curation.
  2. Community Exodus:

    • Creators flee to platforms like Blurt, where downvotes don’t exist, fearing punitive curation over engagement.
  3. Governance Crisis:

    • Hive’s credibility hinges on accountability. Who decides what content thrives? How do we audit power structures?

Solutions Needed:

  • Curation Transparency: Publish clear rationales for downvotes to foster trust.
  • Community Audits: Leverage blockchain data (e.g., Bilpcoin’s analyses) to identify abusive patterns.
  • Reward Reform: Adjust algorithms to penalize manipulation and reward authentic engagement.

The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.

Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust.

A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates

Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust.

@themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co,

How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable.

@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on-chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., #buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community-driven ethos.

Key Issues to Address:

  1. Downvote Practices: Silencing dissent erodes trust. Constructive dialogue, not punitive curation, fosters growth.
  2. Accountability: Transactions and curation trails are public. Scrutiny is inevitable—integrity demands addressing concerns openly.
  3. Community Impact: Driving users to platforms like Blurt/Steemit weakens Hive. Creators seek ecosystems that value collaboration over conflict.

A Path Forward:

  • Engage in open discussions about governance and fairness.
  • Audit curation practices to align with Hive’s decentralized values.
  • Prioritize transparency—publish explanations for downvotes or collaborative reforms.

The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division.

Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged.

#HiveTransparency #CommunityFirst #BilpcoinSupport"

@themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration.

Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins.

Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it.

It’s over.

The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see.

@themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP. Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain.

TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM

  • STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES
  • STOP PLAYING WITH PEOPLE’S LIVELIHOODS

Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention:

The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay:

  • Downvote abuse
  • Farming schemes
  • Speaking disrespectfully to others
  • Encouraging people to avoid certain users out of personal dislike
  • Self-voting with alt accounts
  • Self-funding projects through self-votes
  • Promoting games that don’t even exist (LOL)

These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are unethical and outright destructive.
