This annoyed me - Topshots failure essentially boils down to making things too complicated for the average user. The old adage...

I understand the users with $million ports spending 12 hours a day figuring out what needs to be done to play with their $1000-$10,000 moments.

But the average users , 99.99% of us, dont have 12 hours a day to waste on figuring out what utility $2-$5 moments have.

I think Panini beats Topshot for failure at this point. At least Topshot went somewhere first before failing. Panini just hit the first winner with Optic packs, then decided to ruin it this weekend. Almost got going. Almost.

How much of that is moments minted and sold in packs? I feel it is just flat lined for moments already in circulation.

This exact thing happened last year. Off season actually went up a little. But it crashed again as season started.

Just flat.

It actually has gone up a bit. I saw that some of the S1 moments I picked up a few months ago went up by 20-30%. Also, it seems that you can't easily pick a $2 moment that easily anymore.

This happened as soon as crypto bounced back.

Burning, locking, leaderboards, expected smaller mint counts, net zero additional moments in the next season. All of these are contributors.

Meh, TS road maps mean ZERO. It is not only TS, all NFT road maps are worthless.

Just roll with the flow. This bump happened last summer. nothing new.

Still thoroughly enjoying TS, been liking the crafting moments. Crafting challenges are going to be key going forward, over minting is what killed off a large part of TS, crafting can help with that

I still would love to see each nba/wnba player with moments on the platform get their own crafting challenge. But make it extreme

It would be all commons, and the amount to take out of circulation would be really nice. It would be a new set, something like Burn Barn/Craft Stars/Craft it all. And then what you do, it would be like burn 50 common LeBron’s to a new LeBron and it would be a pretty low number due to the volume of needed cards to burn

Obviously you’d need to figure out a staggering method, for LeBron you’d require say 50 while someone like Gabe Vincent who has like 20K moments only could require only like 15

At this point, i think people just gave up. TS made so many promises and never follow thru. If they do follow thru, they drop it in a few months. There is no clear direction for users to plan.

That is just my opinion. Like going somewhere using a GPS with no sound and a broken screen. Going nowhere fast.

I mean NFTs are down significantly across the board. TS has actually weathered the storm pretty well in comparison to a lot of other NFT projects. Crypto taking a massive dump certainly hurt.

Still like the product going forward, burning will be good for the site

Ohh man.. the drop structure for the 1986 RIB packs came out, and like usual, it's a giant feed to the whales.

Can TopShot please just wipe itself out and restart? I really think it's beyond repair at this point.

I too saw the writing on Top Plop a few months into it.

so, it took a lot of time, but I sold 3k of my TS and bought ALL DAY S1 Moments.

it took forever but life is good now in ALL DAY and I still have 1.5k in top shot to sell moments, if I even need them for ALL DAY.

ALL DAY literally watched what TOP SHOT did and ALL DAY did the opposite.

BTW that new top shot CEO lmfao a female......I can't just too funny, the male was a moron and had no clue about basketball, so they hired his girlfriend.

cheers

Looks like the Top 750 Collectors Score owners for each team on TopShot will be getting an airdropped team moment.

Also, TopShot moments will soon be listed on ongaia, and they're going to have a marketplace promotion to increase the churn of moments.

New pack today with moments all numbered to 5k or less and there appears to be zero hype here. Thing fell off hard.

Did you see the checklist?

All the players worth getting are saved for the whales with huge TS scores.
