cryptofiloz 3Speak Podcast

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! Sorry for missing days and running off my regular schedule... After that 1-week break, I can't catch up with things... The good news is that I'm slowly getting back on track, and hopefully, I will get there... At least, this post is going out on Monday, which is one of the two days of the week where I do Rising Star content!

Speaking of being confused, I have completely forgotten to mention the new cards in my last video! As of May 1st, I was completely out of the loop, I forgot that we have new cards... So, I took time to check out them today, and if you need more info about ALL cards, check out the [post](https://peakd.com/hive-195370/@nupulse/may-2025-new-cards-enes-nuevas-cartas-mayo-2025) by @nupulse!

In other news, the prices of cards with LUCK went up again... As I'm trying to buy instrument cards for my LESSONS, I have noticed the trend of prices going up... ON one side, it's great when you can buy cheap cards for your needs, but it is what it is... On the other side, it's nice to see our collection values going up, too!

As I didn't open packs from the last video, I re-invested most of my STARBITS back into the game through running LESSONS... Still working on my EGO...

Regarding the packs opening, I stick to my 20+10 packs rule, and for now, it works great!

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! I took a long(er) break this time as I was "on the road", but here we are, 9 days since the last video... Let's do a short Rising Star packs opening video to get back in shape...

The Future Easter mission is over, which means no more Robo Bunny cards in the packs, and no more Easter Fairs to collect parts for crafting... All that means fewer opportunities for card giveaways in the packs... We are left with EPICs and RARE VEHICLE cards as possible options for giveaways...

I'm still trying to push my EGO down in the game, which means continuation of opening 20+10 packs per video... Last few times I was lucky getting nice cards in 20 packs, which helped me a lot in running additional Music Lessons with the spare STARBITS tokens that I converted into STARPRO! To be able to run lessons, you have to pay X amount of STARPRO tokens...

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! I have mentioned before the newest changes in the game made me change my strategy by doing missions, collecting cards, and getting involved in other parts of the game... As I'm still working on lowering my EGO, that means a more cautious approach to doing missions, paying attention more to the missions that could boost my ego! Nobody wants that! So, instead of doing missions all day, every evening, I'm looking around different Fairs, trying to collect parts for different instruments... When I have them, I proceed with crafting instruments, which gives me additional (potentially unique) cards!

In the video, I have also bought a few microphones to boost my SKILL for doing Singing lessons! The price of instruments went up in general, as many people are sending cards to PAWNSHOP, which is great as our asset "bag" is growing in value! Good news for all Rising Star players!

Regarding opening packs, I stick to my 20+10 packs rule where I have prepared 20 packs before recording and will buy an additional 10 packs if I don't find some good card for the giveaway... If I do find it, I will spend 200K STARBITS for doing more lessons!!

Welcome to the newest Rising Star news and updates video! Slowly getting back into my regular weekly schedule, just before ruining it again in the next week... lol... I will try to do the post on Monday (hurry up to join the giveaway), but after that, you will have to wait one week for the next one as I will not be able to do it earlier...

But, let's focus on today... We have a new Festival, as usual... This time, it is held in Mexico and if you are collecting wristbands, don't forget to do the mission... It's very close to moving to the next location!

We have a few new cards added to the game... One of them is PRO Rebecca, which is ready for BLENDING! If you have 49 181 Rebecca cards and 1 FixIt NFT, you can blend them into one PRO Rebecca 107 NFT! We have two new additions to the "Shiny" collections, one in the PAWN SHOP, and the other one in the Hotel Buskeria!

Regarding my progress, I didn't do too well this week... I dropped in Rankings and the drop will probably continue because of my current focus on lowering my EGO... I spend ALL my earnings from the game on STARPRO tokens (exchanging from SB to SP) to be able to pay for lessons, and the rest of my income goes for buying packs... As others are probably having different priorities, they have funds to go into buying Shiny cards, and other cards from the markets, needed for PAWN SHOP, for example... So, all in all, I will try to lower my EGO under 10%, and maybe then I will go more into other parts of the game with my "spare" SB earnings...

The same as last time, I stick to my 20-10 packs opening per video/post... If I don't get some nice card for giveaway in 20 packs, I will buy an additional 10 in the video... If I do get, I will spend the rest of SB for doing lessons... ;)

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! I have to admit that I very often procrastinate things... and sometimes, for a very long time... When the 2 new (biggest) changes were implemented in the Rising Star, I hesitated to change my strategy in the game... Slowly but surely, I made some small changes that didn't make a difference, so it's time to make some bigger ones!

The biggest change that will happen (from this video!) is that I will not open 30 packs per video anymore! I have changed my strategy to open 20+10 packs... What does that even mean? Well, before recording the video, I will prepare 20 packs for opening and 200K STARBITS ready to deploy... If I get a nice card for a giveaway (EPIC, SPECIAL CARD, or RARE VEHICLE card), I will stay with 20 packs... If I don't get any juicy cards, I will buy another 10 packs and open them in the same video to give me more chances to get any!

Why am I doing that? The number of cards isn't relevant anymore for general Rankings, and opening packs usually means a lot of duplicates... So, instead of getting duplicates, I will try to buy UNIQUE cards from the markets instead... Also, it's important to say that I will use spared STARBITS to convert into STARPRO and pay for additional LESSONS! The whole point is to lower my EGO as much closer to 0 as possible!

If this new strategy doesn't work, I will make additional changes on the go... ;)

Welcome to the newest Rising Star news and updates video! A bit late today, but in the perfect moment to wish you Happy Easter!!! Despite being a festive season, we had some news in the game, which means more material to share with you in this video!

The most important thing that you should do right away is to visit [TheDappList](https://thedapplist.com/project/rising-star), log in with your crypto wallet, and **VOTE FOR RISING STAR** game!!! More votes, better visibility for the game, and more possibilities for getting new players! Don't forget to do that!

The second important news is that we have a new card for BLENDING! If you need a **Pro Keyboard Player**, you have your chance to blend it! All that you will need is 49 169 Declan cards and 1 FixIt card! And the last news for today is that we have a new festival and if you are missing the wristband (NFT) from Canada, you have a chance to grab it!

Regarding my progress in the game, I can't brag about great results... It's more the opposite as I lost one position in general Rankings and I'm sitting at 42nd place atm... My focus is on opening packs and lowering EGO, but maybe I should move it somewhere else... Please let me know in the comment section if you have some good suggestions...

At least I was able to buy another 30 packs for opening with my STARBITS earnings! I got some nice cards today and the good news is that the winner in the next video will receive another Robo Bunny card!

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! As every Monday, I'm trying to be consistent with my 30-pack opening videos, but also, I also want to add a bit more value by discussing some news from the game, or strategies for playing Rising Star! Today, I talked about the never-ending topic, of lowering that EGO in the game!

The biggest struggle of mid-class (and high-class) in the game is to keep that EGO percentage down... Every mission that you run, push up that EGO a bit... I have dedicated the last 15 months (maybe a bit more) trying to lower my EGO as it was over 37, if I remember well... I had no idea how it "destroys" my STARBITS earnings from the mission, but I luckily learned that and began to work on it to lower it...

Today, my EGO is between 12 and 13, which is awesome, but from the recent change of LESSONS price (you pay 2x the amount of STARPRO tokens than before), my EGO isn't going down anymore... Currently, I'm tweaking which missions I run during the day, trying to make a "perfect balance" between earnings and lessons price... In the video, I talked about the newest addition to the game diary, where you can follow approximate numbers to cope with EGO...

In the end, this is the "opening packs video", so I did open 30 packs and this time, I was lucky to get some very cool cards...

Welcome to the newest Rising Star news and updates video! When I think there are so many things that have been added to the game recently and there is nothing else possible to be added, we get a new feature! :) To be honest, I'm not sure when Auction House was added exactly, as it wasn't announced officially, or I missed it...

You can find Buskeria Auction House, under the PawnShop, in the Cards menu on top of the screen... The idea is simple, you bid on the card presently auctioned, and approximately every 1 hour, the highest bidder will receive the card... Of course, there is a minimum bid and if you go under it, you will not receive the card... It's important to underline that all cards that are auctioned are bought from the market and NOT additionally minted!

Another big news is that the Rankings calculation has changed (again)... This time, the Total Unique Cards percentage went up to 89%, and the Weekly Minutes Played went to only 1%... Personally, it sucks for me as I was doing "over an average" minutes per week and that was one of the nicest numbers... hehehhe... Maybe because of this, I lost 2 positions in Rankings and I'm currently at 41st place...

Regarding regular weekly news, we have a new festival in the USA... You know the drill, if you are collecting wristbands from these festivals...

In my pack opening part of the video, it was more intense than last time... If I remember well, I got a special card right in the first pack, and a couple more in the following... Today, it wasn't like that... Check it out how it was in the video... :)

Welcome to the Rising Star Packs Opening and Giveaway video! It's obvious that recently, I can't stick to my standard Rising Star videos schedule... Sometimes, it's because of the recent 3Speak reliability issues, and sometimes, it's like today, because of new additions to the game! I tried to keep these Monday videos simple, with opening packs, giveaways, and eventually some tips and strategies, but devs are working hard to add new things almost daily, so a few news slips into these posts too...

Today, I had to share with you the new Easter event, which is active and live, but as it is time-sensitive (limited), I wanted to share it asap! For example, to run this special mission, you will need to have the Robo Bunny card in your collection... To help you out, I will give away one of those in the next video, as I had luck and found some today! As soon as you have it, you can begin running the missions as you can find special instrument cards that you will be able to blend into animated NFTs! Speaking of blended Easter cards, they are not ready yet but will be very soon...

As usual, I have opened my 30 packs today! Very happy to say that "Lady Luck" was on my side, and I found many great cards in the packs, but I will leave that to you to check out which ones!

Welcome to the newest Rising Star news and updates video! The best part of the month is... the beginning of the month... hahahaha... Why? Well, NEW CARDS in the Rising Star game, of course!!! Along with new cards, I have a feeling that we will get soon the new Easter mission as it's time for that, too!!! But, for now, let us enjoy these April cards and try to collect as many as possible!

Regarding other news in the game, we have a new festival, as usual, this time in New Zealand... Also, we have 2 new cards for blending, one SHINY, and one PRO card, so check them out in your member panel...

Speaking of my progress, I was talking about my struggles with doing missions now that the price of them has gone up a bit... It's not the end of the world, but I can't manage to buy more cards from the markets as I don't have enough income to do it... Speaking of income and EGO, you can notice new notifications in your diary at the bottom of the screen... They can help you to optimize your strategy to earn more STARBITS and get less EGO for doing missions... RED color means bad, so you will spot them fast... hahaha...

I dropped a bit in the player rankings, but I hope I will bounce after getting some of these new cards in the future openings... I opened 30 packs today and already got plenty of them, but I suppose I miss many others too...
