Well played.

I'm not sure how high TS can go, but I do agree that's a key moment.

I also think Luka is gonna be gold long term and Zion for the short term.

I think there's enough interest now that the cream will continue to rise. I'm looking forward to more pack drops personally.

I'm looking to see what happens when next season gets started, hopefully this momentum carries over. With you on the early Luka and Zion moments, still want those ASGs.

Dang. The Udoka Azubuike I bought for $60 a couple weeks ago and then sold for $100 is now up to over $160. Not sure why it's rising so much but I wish I would have held a bit longer. Oh well, I nearly doubled at least.

It's a bottleneck to completing the Jazz set, which has the least amount of players compared to other teams & he is doing well in summer league.

Am I going to have to eat my words? Looks like Top Shot is alive and well. Color me surprised, but here we are. Sold my Cavs moments way too soon but that's the way it goes some times.

There is a quest right now that requires 3 Cavs moments, thats why there is a recent surge.

The essence of NBA Top Shot is that you collect moments from basketball games. The NFT in the project is a card that contains a short video clip from three different angles of some successful basketball moves.

invested $200 bucks in that Panini stuff.
Website sucks and you need only PAYPAL to sell. Is there anything in the middle of Panini and TS ? Probably would make it big.

The Losing Edge · 08-17-2021, 06:11 PM

For me, I've used this summer lull from packs to build up my CS. I had been wanting to do it and seeing this momentum building got me motivated. I had such a scattering of moments that was doing nothing for me. I reorganized and sold some decent moments to buy Nuggets (see below for why I chose them) moments. Now I have a Nuggets complete team set and past 5k CS (from about 1k) w/ 140 moments total. Didn't add any more money just reallocated what i had much more efficiently. I didn't have anything spectacular that i sold either. The only decent pack i ever got was the Seein Stars. Missed the rising stars and all-star game one and haven’t hit anything but common packs since then. After seeing what the requirements for the playoff rare and legendary packs were it seems that for any decent pack going forward, you are going to need a 5k plus CS to have any kind of shot at it, and honestly even 8K would still probably put you with a slim chance. I know a lot on here don’t love that, & I agree it seems way too high for even average accounts to get there. But on the other side, I do believe in the platform, enjoy messing around on it, & love how they can react to something like the Valley-Oop and get such a great moment like that in the system quickly. If it was doable to build CS without having to add more money than I was in. Feel like I’ve accomplished that now and hopefully at bare minimum all these moments can go to use whenever the hell they decide to drop these trade ticket S1 packs.

This has been discussed on here pages ago, but it really is amazing to see the power of a full team set on CS. Every common moment gets you 36 points, non-common (such as playoff moments or hustle and show) gets you 60. If you have patience and can snipe the $3 commons or $5 non-common sets you’re getting 12 points for every $1 you spend. It’s the best rate you can get. Rares & legendaries get you there faster, but the ratio is way off because those moments are too pricey. Can't do much better than 6-$1.

*Cliff notes on why I went w/ Nuggets.
1. No Run it back to deal with. (Although I’m expecting one coming up here in 2021)
2. No big rookies in S3 to have to pay up for. Bones Hyland here I come!
3. Decent amount of non-base set moments to get for $5/6.
4. Not a lot of new players for next year. Hello Jeff Green.
5. When I started there was a lot of $3 Gary Harris & Aaron Gordon base commons. But those are all gone & I only have 19 $3 Aaron Gordons.

PWCC, Ebay, PSA , BGS , USPS, Fedex, PayPall, charge backs, Scalpers, Walmart, Target , problems, problems, problems.

Everyone come over to the NFT sector . Forget physical card problems for now.

Just have fun. The strange thing is people that accuse others of pumping are usually the biggest pumpers of something in another thread. LOL

Thanks, I really know nothing about this and this helped a little bit.

daeve · 08-18-2021, 10:03 AM

Hadn't looked at any of my moments' prices in weeks - got a few with nice up arrows now. I told y'all the Obi was a good value a while ago

- that one is up a good %. I should've been buying more on the dip - ah well.

One of my friends actually became a Azubuike whale. He’s been buying a bunch of them up because of it being a bottleneck

Eckstein197 · 08-18-2021, 10:07 AM

TS is doing well, it’s funny the past week or so before the Okoro quest, there wasn’t much to chase/do, so there were a bunch of random pumps. Overall though the market cap is around 736 million which is significantly up from a month/2 ago when it was 600 million

I expect we should see some more quests and such, and then rakeback is supposedly coming soon. Along with RIB. And then also trade tickets. Should be plenty of content to keep up with until the season starts for series 3

Should be interesting...

Also, haven't heard much about UFC or NFL lately.

Maybe they are putting those on pause until they can figure out NBA even more.

I think those two have even more potential from a utility standpoint.... Imagine quests like "put together a showcase featuring every winner from UFC 275 and receive a new moment featuring the 'knockout of the night"....

of even better: "Put together a showcase of 9 AFC players before kickoff on sunday. If 6 of those players score a touchdown, earn a moment of that week's offensive player of the week".

Really step up the 'challenge' aspect of it.
