2/ Sorare – the fantasy football (soccer for us American ingrates) – leads its fantasy sports competitors in P2P trading showcasing the robust community and marketplace it’s developed.
3/ MLB Champions takes the third spot with over $1.5 million in NFT sales and with the lowest average NFT price of $16.
4/ As an asset class, trading cards are historically uncorrelated to the stock market with the top 100 cards outperforming the S&P 500.
5/ NFT trading cards will likely outperform traditional trading cards because Sorare NFTs maintain fantasy utility value until a player retires.
Still, crypto trading cards will likely mirror the PWCC index where the top cards vastly outperform the long tail of cards.
