Easier to store, access, and sell? Good luck to you on your future endeavors.

You don’t truly own them, thats the issue. If the platform goes down, so do your moments.

So, I have 19 moments just existing, they're common cheap $1 moments. I rarely even go to the site, so if anyone has any sorare nba cards that they would like to trade for these, let me know. I'll trade for the 19 crappiest cards you have on sorare. PM please.

Panini NFT opened their burn function today. Definitely a step in the right direction. Top shot needs to take note.

It looked like everything was already claimed and you needed some high value NFTs to complete any of the challenges.

Man I haven't done TopShot in a minute. Any chance this comes back during the next bull run? Should be fun to see everyone remembering the NFT and metaverse world.

Good luck. Sorare is 1 million times better than top shot. I feel like sorare’s management is making good decisions to make the product better too. The NBA road map for season 2 was very well done.

I don’t. It’s a rare instance where it was clear what was going on and you had several people in here warning it was a rug pull and those folks got shouted down and shamed. People had plenty of time to sell and try to recoup losses and got greedy. NFTs are dead and may the never rise from the grace again.

And those who shouted down and shamed others are no longer active members of this forum.

100%, looking forward for the new season.

I just gave it a shot in case someone had some cheap former players in sorare that can't be used. I play but also collect so eventually I'll get a copy of those scrub players.

So much of the buying was frantic FOMO.

Yep, if that guy made a few thousand, so can I...I hope! That was the rub.

OP is still massively involved in NFT's right now, we know where that money came from.

Without utility, NFTs have very little value. Very few collect want this stuff. Panini is in burn mode right now with their new crafting. Burning NFTs allows packs to be sold and cards to be flipped. Only revenue stream right now for these jpegs or gifs

Luka Bubble Game Winner 3PT $625 used to be $1200
LeBron No Look 3 $179 lowest ask.
Ayton Valley Oop $725 used to be $1200
How do current prices compare?
