That's an eternity in this hobby.
All the 90s collecters/investors were all gone in 5 years or less.

This will happen here.
I kind of agree here. I can't help but think that a lot of the new faces around the hobby will melt away. I saw it in the 90s as well. That's not to say the Blue Chip cards won't retain their gains from this period, but Zion Prizm PSA 10s and similar stuff holding value? It's just unlikely. Maybe like Rubies, PMG, certain subsets (Kaboom, Color Blast, and the like) hold value?

I feel like a lot of people , including Wall Street (with no institutional history of card collecting) maybe jumped the gun here.
