I am personally able to withdraw funds, and I don't actually know how quickly most people will be approved, but I understand why people would be upset.

I don't know how they will protect from CC fraud going forward, but if you listen to people in similar industries like DFS, this is just part of the growing pains.

I should add, that the aspect of this that leads to the withdrawal problems, IS groundbreaking to the NFT space.

This is the first NFT project with a real FIAT onramp. What they need to figure out is how to offramp, while covering for CC fraud. No other NFT project had that problem because they only had Crypto onramp.

I guess nobody here has ever dealt with chargebacks or ebay returns when selling cards, huh? Lucky, must just be me.

As someone who has been playing DFS since inception, the problems TS has (not the product itself) are nowhere in the same realm. At all.

TS isn't the FD or DK of the space, but one of the fly-by-night pop ups that faced the same liquidity issues and closed up shop with the funds. At least that's where they are currently. With crypto surging I do think everybody will be made whole. Should crypto tank before every member is verified to withdraw, kiss the money goodbye.

"Collecting NFTs" is really just code for money laundering. They pop up, get hyped, and something newer and cooler comes out and the rest of the crypto crowd moves on. It's the cycle of how things work

It's funny you call people out for not knowing what's going on when you have no idea about what they do or don't know. Guarantee Ninja would run circles around you when it comes to crypto knowledge as would many other members on here.

You are wrong, and you know it, which is why you gave yourself an out that you can come back and say, "it only worked out because crypto is surging". Well done, I see you have experience with this.

Ninja might be the #1 genius in the crypto space for all I know, but he does not know about NFT's, and I know that because I read his posts in this thread.

Ok, this is my last post in here for a while. I'm in full "Someone is wrong on the internet" phase so it's time to stop.

I'll check in every month or so.

Doesn’t seem to me to be many people, if any, collecting these NFTs for fun or as a hobby. It’s been a money making $15 to $1000 type thing. You can read a hundred pages here and a discord that proves this. There’s one guy here who even mentioned collecting these been an enjoyable pack ripping experience

It hasn't worked out yet.

It's obvious to anybody that they have a liquidity issue (Again, speculation but seems painfully obvious) and they're masquerading behind KYC and other "excuses" because for many this is their first rodeo in the space.

I'm not saying I know or don't know. The only thing I know is that the majority have had withdrawal issues (unless they're lying). That isn't a "normal" thing, no matter how much you and others want it to be.

There's no outs being laid or anything, I've been saying the same thing for a while now. You just read it with a bias for whatever reason or don't read it altogether (similar to the P2020 thing above).

Such a tiny % of people actually give a crap about NFTs. They're vehicles to easily move money around, that's it.

TS will end up having a small, but dedicated userbase once the masses leave to some other, newer, cooler NFT.

But TS is the GROUND BREAKING NFT and nobody understands it. C'mon man, it's mainstream!!!! Haven't you seen the user base????

Take this and go drop the same response in the Haiku thread.

These "scams" exist because people don't think.

Some would call you heroes of the internet

Please go on the NBATopShot discord and save the people there. You can save 30,000+ people from getting scammed on discord.

You all sound super knowledgeable and can surely convince everyone on discord that they are getting scammed. You will be legends.

Dont waste your time here saving a hand full of naive people. Get your word out on Discord.

Many of those "30,000" are a part of the problem, of which you can't figure out.

Imagine if just half of the discord server were buyers of TS, we'd all be rich!!!

When you can't even cultivate 25% of you base to buy-in....yikes...

Can you imagine if YOU sold your house all your cards and just bet everything on Tampa bay just 7 days ago. You would be collecting real money 2 days ago.
