I was calling tops last year too, simply in disbelief that my TCG bag went 10x while crypto went down only.
I have accepted the fact that the asset class is simply too small, and with increasing wealth disparity, excess wealth will continue to flow into highly scarce trophy assets which don't have an ongoing increase in supply.
I have no idea where things go from here, and I'm just thankful i held onto my grails.
But all these AI engineers aren't buying lambos and pateks, they are buying pokemon cards.
I know people have been trying to try to call for local tops on tcg markets since this tweet and will prob continue to. While things may be pretty frothy, I still personally think on a years long basis the collectibles market will continue to grow quite a lot
