>the last time crypto was making anyone rich was 5 fucking years ago>GME pump was also 5 years ago>more than half the threads on /biz/ are crypto or GME related>meanwhile, any time any posts a thread about Pokémon cards - the best performing asset of the past 5 years - it immediately gets clowned on by almost everyoneIs /biz/ perpetually frozen in 2021?
>>62240870Who actually wants to own pokemon cards though?
>total marketcap is estimated at 75 billion
>>62240870>Not GME!
>>62240870post your realized profitsill stick to stocks
>>62240870Not all pokiman cards have done a +1900%, meanwhile all golds, btcs and s&p500s have done their respective +%s
KaspaZoraCultAeroAvantisAsterEdge (definitive)KTAHYPEThis is a non-exaustive list of cryptos that pumped at least 10x over the last 2 years.The probem is not that crypto doesn't pump- it does- the problem is that this board is full of low IQ psycho bagholders in their 40s who cannot let go of the fact they bought fucking chainlink almost 10 years ago and thus refuse to post about anything else.Essentially /biz/ is frozen in 2020, the last good year Link had.
>>62241733Every sealed product is up at least 20x since 2020. EVERY SINGLE SEALED PRODUCT.>>62241770Idk about the others but I know HYPE is only about 3.5x
>>62242129Currently 47 dollars
>>62240870its not that long since silver did an ath and oil did a similar one too. leverage in on the bottom and you too could have made it
>>62242780You could have went 4x with silver or oil if you bought 5 years ago, yup. If you bought Pokémon cards instead, you're up 30x.
That's because people don't own the rare Pokemon cards, but they own tons of worthless shares are crypto coins. They fight for their trash.
>>62245543silver literally more than doubled recently. you'd just ride it up with leverage and you could do the same with oil and down as well and theres your 100+x
>>62245543>>62242780>>62247501SNDK was 30 bucks last year and peaked at 1600 last monthYou can't always be sad over the investments you missed, sometimes it's just the fault of /biz/ and the monkeys in their 40s who spent the last 15 years shilling garbage that never panned out. Like XRP.
>>62247509sandisk is wildif i bought i would be so rich, multi millionaire.i might kms.
>>62247520yea its frustrating watching opportunities come and go almost daily. some of which you even thought of but ended up not getting into
>>62245647You don't even have to own rare cards. There are cards with thousands of pristine graded copies going for over $1k for a beat up copy. Look up Poncho Pikachu and Latios & Latias GX.
>>62247509Yes, but for every person who bought SNDK last year, there's someone who bought RBLX last year. You're just as likely to be rich off SanDisk as you are to be poor off Roblox. EVERYTHING in Pokémon is up at least 400% since last year, with some things being up over 3000%.
>>62247592but as with any physical collectables it might not be easy to exchange them to money or what you need when you need, especially not in large quantities
>>62247615Bro, Wall Street is investing in cards. You realize what that means, right? It means you can use them as collateral.
>>62247651Or alternatively, sell them at one of the many trade shows that happen every single weekend. This isn't 2019 anymore; there's no liquidity problem.
>>62247658and how would you know its a genuine card? hard to imagine it being difficult for chinaman to make a copy, hell even north korea would love to be in such a business
>>62240870>Is /biz/ perpetually frozen in 2021?yea, some of us are stuck in 2017
>>62247685That's why you don't buy upgraded high value singles.
Bros I have like $400 in low tier 1995 holos and promo cards. Should I sell them? Seems like the market is very high rn. It’s not that much cash but it’s better than waiting 10 years and they’ll be worth zero. I can get a switch 2 with it
Star Wars Lego kits are a good investment. Star Wars fans are retarded nerds. Lego fans are retarded nerds. It is a perfect venn diagram overlap of the type of nerd that will blow insane money on useless plastic. They will pay big money for discontinued Star Wars Lego kits.
>>62247767I would sell. Those are only interesting to a certain generation. Zoomers won't care about them. Just like how collector cars are starting to crash in value because nobody gives a fuck about a 56 Chevy Bel Air anymore. Many of the old classic V8 muscle cars that boomers pretend are the pinnacle of sports car design will lose in a drag race to a V6 Nissan Maxima.
>>62240870yes. I think this calls for more chainlink cope threads and yearly SIBOS spam
>>62247767Yes but not for a Switch 2. The Steam Deck is way better.
>>62240870I think it's gonna happen once you freak out a bit more.. .. but in actuality, the nihilist would say once we reach the inflection point of peak market fuckery (ie. you're all bled) then boom . The optimist say 2 more weeks.. I say 2 more weeks (for my investments. idk what u retards bought and when) For real anon whatthe fuck even is your question
>>62247685If counterfeiting ever became a widespread issue then you'd see way more premiums on graded stuff even with lower numbers. Neither Kim Gook nor Ching-Chong Xian is capable of making convincing replicas for any TCG or Sport (except Lorcana oddly enough) and they won't be for at least another 15 years. Too many easy tells that only tourist normies would fall for and you can't fake aging.>>62247851Anyone over the age of 50 should be banned from posting on this board. Zoomers love Pokemon, and gen alpha got introduced to it by their Millennial parents. If you think the last bastion of physical hobbies for kids is going to dissipate in the next 30 years you're sub 90 IQ.
>>62247969Not interested lol
>>62248033True but there are a TON of tourist normies in the hobby now. That's why mass produced common as fuck modern set cards and sealed are being treated as investments.
Are shadowless worth anything? I did a sort and have about a hundred of em
>>62248160sealing sounds like the ultimate setup for scams. you could even put blanks in there and no one would know because they don't want to open it and lose the value of their investment
