3.The sports cards market's low estimate valuation is 5.5 bln$ and is expected to have a significant
growth in the coming years(it has outperformed S&P500 in the last decade,so alot of ppl turn their
heads towards it. The best perks of the digitalisation are:

4.- no chance of forgery or fake cards(recently there was a
Pokemon box sold for ~430k $ , that turned out to be fake).This cant happen on the blockchain. Period.
Like NEVER.
-No chance of incidents with your physical cards-loss,fire,flood,damage.

5. The most valueable cards are
rated 9/10 or 10/10(basiclaly means you should never pull them outside the box/plastic sleeve and keep
it that way for years.

6. -No need to wait for months or pay alot of money to a 3rd party company, that need to verify if you have
an authentic card(the waitlist currently is a few months to a year long, unless you are willing to pay
300-500$ for a faster authentication process.

7. @nba_topshot is a collecting card game,but there is an actual game coming(with mobile version etc.)where you can boost your ingame performance and experience with your rarest cards collection- imagine boosting Curry with a LBJ dunk legendary card.
8. The huge improvement(imo)is that the card is not a picture,but a moment(short clip) with a significant and beatiful play- dunk,steal,block etc.
9.Some stats and metrics- there is a steady growth in interest and the site has almost doubled its growth
for a few months period ( alexa link).Almost 20k twitter followers and 5k discord community members.

10. Cryptoslam site shows increasing weekly and monthly volume andd more than 1.3 mln $ of marketsales https://cryptoslam.io/ The foundations are set and once the new NBA season starts , the official release of the game will launch.The project is still in its infancy(open beta)
11. There will always be people,who prefer touching/holding their sport memorabilia,but even if digitalisationcatches a few percent of the traditional marketcap per year,the growth is imminent,especially once the NBA fans discover it and start collecting and enjoying it.

Ending - finish with this LBJ rookie card sold for 1.8 mln$ recently( https://www.talkbasket.net/104897-lebron-james-rookie-card-fetches-1-8-million-dollars) and a beatiful dunk from the 2020 Legendary finals set , which sealed the 4th Ring and a new page in his Legacy book- Lakers title.( https://www.nbatopshot.com/listings/p2p/320cae53-d585-4e74-8a66-404fa3543c19+b2fcd3d0-c8a7-4355-b12b-9c4f58b7e523)
