Even better, thanks for the update.

Ah, you're right! Shoot - sorry about that. A little ambiguity in the way they posted it and I misread it.

No worries, just didn't want anyone screwing up if they're going for the challenge.

This is also important for people holding Cool Cats packs, if I can get at least one of each Cool Cats release, I may be able to flip individually or as a bundle.

If you really want to capitalize on Top Shot you should check twitter. Terry Rozier tweeted he was going to check it out and his cards shot up.

I bought a Zion block 2xx at 1200 and sold it for 1700 and thought pretty highly of myself at the time.

Ton of people dumping S2 LeBron Dunk right now (and probably the 3 Pointer as well). Not going to tell anyone how to spend that kind of cash, but if you want the Dunk (tons of 3 Pointers still in packs) then now might be the last change to get it at a stomach-able price.

Yeah I really feel like series 2 LEs for superstars will be the 2nd tier of best cards for stars. So for comparison, prizm is the best for Zion/Ja, while their optic is 2nd for base rookies. So I'm totally fine holding Giannis right now. Just trying to convince myself to pour more money in to top shot

If you're putting more money in, either buy a nice S1 or deposit and wait for the next large S2 pack drop. There's still 5k LeBron, KD, Luka, etc. to come out of that run and prices will drop for a bit when supply goes up. But same theory with the 15k LE. Probably never going to see that limited of a run on superstar commons again so great entry point for new collectors.

Should I unload the Kleber S1 Dunk now that it has moved back into the $300's and the Morant S2 Dunk now that it's approaching $500? I love that Morant though. If I was to sell both of those at current value I would have all of my initial investment back.

Yeah I really want more dapper available when the next big pack drop happens. Let the market crash a little and I'll snap up some nice moments for half/75% of current prices

So realistically where we can see this going? if each moment is an independent mint (AKA crypto coin) the market cap of that coin will be translated to the coin supply. so a Luka /7500 can literally be in the $80K-$100K each

I don't think this can be stopped, we just open something never seen before

I'm doing my best to balance having some liquidity to buy that dip while still being in on some other stuff now. Deciding on anything to sell is more difficult than I imagined.

I just sold an Isaiah Roby moment after he tweeted about Top Shot.

I've been asking myself this all day. Would be extremely curious to see what people much smarter than myself think.

If you’re holding money in dapper right now, you are missing out on huge gains.

Yep, the value could be endless. That's why the lower run 7500 or less could wind up being extremely valuable. Even the 15000 if the pack print runs start going to 25k or more which I think they have to in order to keep up with this demand.

Depends how much, I've got about 30 bucks right now because all the rest is tied up in moments, but I feel like having that amount isn't a bad idea because if there's a random pack drop I won't need to sell anything (unless it is some crazy card)

I'm in this boat, but currently liquidating to invest in a more iconic moment.

Nothing wrong with holding cash when you have a plan to then use it

Absolutely. I’m just imagining someone keeping $2k in their dapper account. Might as well just put it in a .00002 savings account.

Dropped $100 to buy in a couple of weeks ago.

Sold me free Donovan Mitchell "gift" for $285 on Friday and picked up a few cards that were more expensive

Currently my portfolio is "worth" $2700 nd I have about $60 sitting in Dapper (can't find anyone good to buy right now)

Guys in my portfolio

Giannis
Carmelo
Chris Paul
Kawhi
Bradley Beal
Mike Conley
Embid
Andre Drummond
Lamarcus Aldrige
Malcolm Brogden
Darius Bazley

Feel like it's a pretty good crop of players

I'm holding, as I'm fine with the $100 investment
