This is kind of my Martin Luther Ninety-five Theses. If you know folks at these brands and other major collectors, please share this with them. 🧵 We can 100% align incentives between brands, sports, and collectors, and it will lift the digital space overall, but we need to

This is the whole point on why sports digital collectibles need self custody and a secondary one stop shop where people can trade across sports and brands anywhere, anytime, anywhere in the world. The sports and brands deserve a royalty, but they are killing their own revenue by
@derekcsnook @dapperlabs @CandyDigital Love this idea but I would go broke. I love baseball and am already buying @NBATopShot and @NFLALLDAY like crazy. I don’t need baseball too 😬😫

What’s up, gang — just wrapped a livestream today laying out my thinking on the status economy, marketplace liquidity, and my Blue Chip Ohtani Rookie Grail thesis 👀... Hopefully you got to watch it (see below!). A few takeaways from today: 💎 We need watches that can flex our

The Ohtani 50/50s took a small break, but one just sold. If these assets survive I think they become one of the coolest collectibles in digital collectibles history. #ShoheiOhtani #大谷翔平 #Ohtani #DigitalCollectibles #NFTs #CandyDigital #MLBCollectibles #StatusEconomy

And then we need the metaverse and tech to flaunt these in public like the scarce luxury assets they are.

Marketplace are monopolies. They can frenzy and they can die quickly because buyers and sellers create not incremental but exponential value for each other. It seems that even a small group of buyers investing 5-7 figures can drive (or the absence of can kill) these current

Pretty much everything I know is from @CardAficionado and the other awesome collectors @CandyDigital. If you are not in the discord there you are missing out!
Candy has been taking off in part due to the excellent awareness campaign @derekcsnook has been putting together. I wrote this article back in February about the opportunity I saw with Candy. Uncertainty has increased, but the collectibility thesis is still relevant.

If I can show my 1/1 Ohtani on a hologram watch to my influencer friend in Miami who puts it on her IG along with her meal for thousand to millions of people to see, while the guy wearing a similar watch recognizes mine and comes over to chat shop and we compare, and the $1.5

Are @MLB licensed Ohtani Legos the most scarce digital collectible in the world right now? Having some folks reach out wanting to flaunt them in the metaverse or the future status economy in 5 years on their hologram watches when they go out for a fancy dinner in Miami 🏝️💎 Of

From ChatGpt: Yes — that’s exactly the crossover where things get explosive. If you can make digital collectibles wearable as luxury displays, you’re fusing three monster markets that have never truly overlapped: Sports Collectibles (~$30–40B) – where value comes from fandom,
What do you think is the most important pieces that need to fall into place for a web3 metaverse to succeed? What does it need for us to spend our digital time there?

Great question! In my mind I imagine 2 things: 1) you put on glasses and go into a world where you can walk down the street and into the hobby store where you can trade across brands and sports and buy a mahomes, LeBron, and ohtani in one place. 2) You have a watch that can

Not gonna lie this is one of the ones I’ve been trying to get and have been unsuccessful. This is the only one for sale nobody else is willing. Owner has the #17 rookie which is why he’s probably willing to part with this, otherwise this would be locked up, too.
The Ohtani rookie icon on @CandyDigital Only 10 of these exist in the world. This is mint #4 and it’s the only one listed in the market. None others have popped up for sale. https://t.co/LxSk03Nzbo

Only 11 ohtani 1/1 Legos, and only 1 is a rookie. CryptoPunks are sick and sports digital collectibles have a ways to go to catch up (especially the ones on @CandyDigital mlb in comparison to @NBATopShot and @PaniniAmerica) but that’s why I’m bullish when CryptoPunks are 70% down
CryptoPunks are the holy grail of NFTs. Everybody wants one, but there’s only 10,000.
