Those layoffs are definitely a red flag for any kind of investors. Especially Topshot and Strike are in a deep crisis and Golazos (LaLiga) hasn’t been released yet. EPL (which was probably a pretty expensive license) still in the making.

Wondering how much liquidity Dapper has to survive this? I mean Candy and Panini aren’t exactly knocking it out of the park, but they can afford too slowly grow this.

Dapper expected the FLOW coin to help carry them through all of this.

These unicorn tech companies that aren’t turning a profit today are dead in the water over the next 12-18 months unless someone acquires them. They stand no chance of obtaining funding when you can get treasuries at 4%+.

Anybody have a graph of the market cap? All the websites I used to use to look at it have kind of hidden the charts.

Here is one from collective.xyz:
https://collective.xyz/topshot/market

I don't know if the market cap means much now because it is based on floor prices and not last sold. If nothing is selling at the floor price then is it really an accurate assessment.

I think it's the opposite, they have a decent vision with a mediocre product. If they had the UX design that Dapper has, it would be awesome.

Crazy when you think you would have been in a better position long holding most crypto/altcoins instead of these .gifs. At least the crypto market's still flashing dead cats and signs of medium to long term resiliency.

They have the one thing Top Shot doesn't, and is probably key to something like this working long-term, an app.

This blog article is just comedy gold. They act like burning unreleased moments is actually doing something. The Great Burn...Just reserved 3 of the new packs. Seem good, but don't want to get sucked in. Maybe the bottom is actually here.

Wow... burning the few moments people might actually care about.

Sounds like a good idea.

Gotta love the bag holders on Twitter acting like this is some major event to be celebrated. Any piece of news they'll latch on to and act as if that is the move that'll save the day.

Where the pumpers at?

I "won" four packs. I received 4 Anthony Davis and 3 Paul George. Great randomization!

I think gone are the days of expecting to make make a profit on these.

It's like buying retail wax, or scratch off tickets. If you do it for fun, great. But if you are doing it as a financial strategy, you'll need luck.

Probably why many new 2020 entrants into the physical card market have left the building
