I like the looks of the HGA slabs.

I never anticipated blockchain cards, but I guess its a thing now. a LeBron dunk sold for $208k recently. Other NFT things are bringing ridiculous amounts. Jack Dorsey is selling his very first tweet, if it hasn't already sold, and last I heard it was at like 2.5 mil. Some blockchain art has brought millions. |

With cards, there are many factors that add into the desire. With the NFT, its literally just bits that have an accompanying blockchain "guarantee". thats my best take. And I'm assuming alot of instant millionaires via bitcoin or some other equally easy avenue are the big spenders on this stuff. I could be wrong. its not my cup of tea, but I am fascinated by it in terms of why. All I can think of is that its new. And its blockchain. And that makes it sexy, or something. If you ask me, its like buying GME at $450 and holding it with diamond hands. I guess one other part of Top Shot that I don't fully understand is the actual currency used to buy and sell with. I've heard some mumblings about people selling top shot items, and then having an uphill battle in getting their actual dollars from it . |

In the M:TG market there are three types of cards that hold value: 1) Those that are crap but come from the earliest sets with very low print runs that the company has promised to never print again. 2) Those that are actually played and are valuable because of that. 3) The ones that are both and they are the ones that are above $200. |

The difference between non-graded & graded cards is astronomical.
