I'm pretty sure thet said they're adding utility to the packs.

They're doing this drop for a reason. It's not just so you pay for a very common D. Wade

I'm having too much fun riding the hype waves on young guys... especially the affordable /12k first moment guys.

Giving the chance at a free pack for spending money in the marketplace is kind of genius. That's how you encourage the addicts to chase the dragon. I'm not saying everyone who chases challenges is addicted, but I imagine enough are. I've come to acknowledge that opening Top Shot packs gives you a lot of the same rush you get from opening wax.

Anyone who fell for the hack, I honestly don’t have any sympathy towards. TS is run on the flow blockchain, why would they all of a sudden try to mint something on the ETH blockchain out of the blue

i think you can buy TS moments with other coins now. My have fooled some people i guess

"In addition to using your debit card, credit card, and Dapper Balance to make purchases, you are also able to use cryptocurrency from your preferred wallet to buy NBA Top Shot packs or add to your Dapper Balance.
The cryptocurrencies we currently support are:
Ether (ETH)
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
DAI
USDC"

I'm a little disappointed that I didn't see any TopShot promotion or mentions during opening night.

For anyone that was unaware, the Trade in Ticket Stress Test waiting room is live.

I didnt see any communication about it, but I also dont spend much time at all on discord.

Is there a cost for this one? Last time they did a 3 ticket swap and I think it cost $9, right?

If it's free, then I'll convert some trash moments to tickets and roll the dice

It's 10 tickets and I think they shut down the ticket swap on Monday, though that might have changed.

I like the concept overall, I traded in 10 duplicates and received 7 moments not already in my collection and 3 dupes. I’ll take that as a W

I think its a no brainer to swap if you have high serialed junk in your collection. Nothing of note for me on my swap.

Just be careful because 40k might not be so low soon

40k or 400k, I think serials outside the top 1,000 will all carry roughly the same price.

That's a tough decision. $599. Do people think it will be worth it?

You get 2x Run it Back Moments which on average are hovering around $150-200 a pop.

You’ve got to think with the chase moment being #’d to /125, you’d be breaking even, even if you get a scrub.

You're probably right. The CS bonus has pushed me to 11,500, so I'm going to need 5 more WNBA moments to get in priority. Which. Never. Works. Out. For. Me.
