YouTube celeb Logan Paul did a live Pokemon pack pull. If you didn't get in on it, you can buy NFTs (digitally numbered videos) of each card for between $5,000 and $20,000.
Previous ones have sold out for as much as $38,500.

A fool and his money are soon parted
Wait what? This much money for digital cards?
Terry Bradshaw was AMAZING!!
Ignore list -Basebal21
NBA Top Shot cards/"moments" at 6 figures....
Not even for digital cards! For a VIDEO of someone showing off the card!
torn on this one and similar things like top shot. while i don't get it, there appears to be a market for these things. more power to whoever's cashing in on these things.
it's like someone sitting at the self service stand at mcdonald's and charging for napkins, straws & ketchup.
Must be signed by Pokemon.
It's a very rare autograph.
Classic development of derivatives market.
Kiss me twice.....let's party.
What am I looking at?
people are nuts
I don't get it. What exactly are people buying for 5k-20K
They're paying $20,000 for a limited-edition video of someone opening a pack and pulling a specific card.
Take your time and read that again. And yes, it's as crazy as it sounds.
if people have this much money to throw around on such frivolous things, it's no wonder that tangible sports cards are selling for so much -- does this mean the Youtube box breakers are going to try to make add'l money by selling rights to the videos of their box breaks? Good grief...how did people who are buying these kinds of things come to have so much money? Making purchases like this, you'd wonder how they were able to amass sums of money that they can "throw" at these video clips
Hmmm, I'm willing to sell the ORIGINAL of my first PSA submission form filled out in 1999. 1969 Topps PSA 8 Reggie Jackson, Mickey Mantle, Nolan Ryan and PSA 9 Roberto Clemente. $10,000 to the first taker!!
For a mere $5,000, I'll sell the shoebox my 1986 Jordan (which I'm positive was a 10
) use to be in before I sold it in 1989.
Lets just sell this conversation about this conversation.
Last I checked having a picture of a card does not count as having it in your collection. Same goes with my other hobby (video games)...having a collection of ROMs on your Everdrive does not count! Only actual cartridges/discs that you own "count" as being a part of your collection.
Do you guys get the difference?

I’m selling copies of my wedding video for half a million. Actually, I’ll pay anyone that to take them off my hands.
When I see this buffoonery, I'm left with the assumption that all the hard earned money I saved is evaporating via the printing presses of the US Treasury.
At first this seems unbelievable, but then I see my son watching videos of someone else playing video games, and it becomes clearer.
@batpig LOL! I feel the same way and rib my son about how he can stand to watch someone else play for hours instead of just playing. Still don't understand it tbph.
its crazy to me. but then, I don't even get a real paycheck or actual money on payday. I just get an email that numbers were digitally transferred from my employers account into my account.
I haven't had physical U.S. Dollars in my pocket for a very long time.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
How much for a limited-edition video of someone watching the limited-edition video of someone opening a pack and pulling a specific card.

How far behind is an options market on the assets held by the limited number of investors on a Rally/Collectable/Dibbs/TopShot card/moment/purse/lambo etc?
