Big agree the fees on alt/fanatics are actually super reasonable once you take the time to learn more
Huge fan of crypto rails for tcg / collectibles and build in the space myself, but just wanted to clear up misunderstandings around buyers premiums. The 20-22% buyers premium on auctions should be baked into the final price / comp of the card (when you look at price history on alt/cardladder, they report on final price). For tcg, all these auction houses pay most of the buyers premium to the sellers. E.g. auction house I work with pays me 115% of hammer, buyer pays 120% of hammer so I get 96% of the final sale. In addition they provide - dedicated rep that responds within 20 mins almost 24/7, who each have their own ops team to resolve issues quickly - free insured shipping of any value, including armored card transport - active customer engagement with a buyer base I will never have access to (literal billionaires and Forbes 150 guys) IMO they more than earned their fee. I’m 100% rooting for tcg rwa platforms but would encourage we focus on the real differentiators

👀 I don’t know ZAI’s P&L so won’t comment on it but will state the obvious: Unless you vertically integrate and show a credible path to owning models, app, tokens, cloud, data centers and silicon the risk of being a hi volume, low profit company is abnormally high in this sector because value is accruing and changing so rapidly.

Don’t use AI to save yourself time by wasting someone else’s.
Lazy work used to mean too little output. Now, with AI, it often means too much and more work for everyone else. @tobi call it "slop grenades." A "Slop Grenade" is when you let AI produce the work and pass it on without adding any value (including checking it). Someone else has to wade through it, catch the mistakes, and clean up the mess. You save time and look productive but someone else pays for it.

It’s been a wild journey to $100M. Grateful for everyone who’s supported us along the way. We’re working hard on V2 and can’t wait to show y’all what’s next.
Monster just passed $100 million in all time volume! Thank you so much for everyone who has ripped along the way. We have been a bit quiet over the last few weeks as we build out Monster v2. We can't wait to start showing you all what we have been cooking. See you at $1b 🫡

Oops
Top 2 cards in the $100 pack just went up in price. Top prize card is now $26.5k wroth 265x. 2nd prize card is now $11.5k worth 115x. Odds are also looking pretty good. You will most likely not find a better chase from other platforms. mnstr.xyz?ref=VITALIKSUMMONE…

I tried ripping some free packs on an undisclosed gacha platform today… “network connection” issues and a few charges to my bank account later and I still hadn’t ripped a pack… … just reminds me of why when I wanna rip from a gacha, I will always go straight to @mnstr ✅🤷🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️

It doesn’t have to make sense to you. All it takes is 2 people and the sky’s the limit.
