- [PeakMonsters](https://peakmonsters.com) is essentially a third-party marketplace for Splinterlands that allows users to buy/sell and rent their Splinterland cards. There are many more features to the platform, however, I'll be focusing on the primary ones.

- [Hive-Engine](https://hive-engine.com/) or [Tribaldex](https://tribaldex.com/) is a decentralized marketplace for buying/selling tokens on the hive blockchain. 
- The Hive-Engine was created in order to bring smart contracts to the Hive blockchain without sacrificing security, and exists as a sidechain. 
- Tribaldex is essentially Hive-Engine with a better UI and more integrated features, as the same team of developers work on both.

While Splinterlands does have a referral program in place, it only benefits the referrer and not the referee. Therefore, it is up to us (the existing players) to create our own referral program to help new players enter into the game. Here is how mine works: 
- Sign up for Splinterlands through my referral link [here](https://splinterlands.com?ref=kuhnchun).
- Once you buy the **Summoner's Spellbook**, I will receive 500 credits ($0.50) which I will use to buy DEC, cards, or both to help you start your Splinterlands journey.
- All you need to do is comment below the IGN you used to sign up with. Once I have verified it, I will reach out to see what you would like to spend your $0.50 on and then send it over.
