比特币(Bitcoin)是热门?那是今年2月的事情了。非同质化代币(NFT)?古老而且过时。宝可梦(Pokemon)卡牌才是新宠。
近期,一位收藏家花了31.18万美元买了一张大受欢迎的喷火龙卡牌。有些人在eBay上出售宝可梦卡牌,目前售价在1.1万美元到27万美元之间。
最近,一张非常稀有的卡牌售出,经一家独立的评级服务机构鉴定其完好无损。这张卡牌共收到124次出价。
实际上,超过30万美元的售价还不是宝可梦卡牌的最高售价。今年年初,一位收藏家花了36万美元买了一张稀有的水箭龟卡牌。与此同时,一盒尚未开封的初版卡牌竟然卖出了40.8万美元的高价。
值此25周年之际,宝可梦公司(Pokemon Co.)推出的系列新产品也比以往任何产品都更受欢迎,其一在于怀旧,其二在于宝可梦产品范围之广,从与任天堂(Nintendo)成功合作推出的卡牌游戏,到广受欢迎的手机游戏以及影视剧。
近年来,人们收藏卡牌的兴趣普遍高涨。体育类卡牌的售价非常高,其中达拉斯独行侠队(Dallas Mavericks)的球星卢卡·东契奇的签名新秀卡牌售价高达460万美元,1952年米奇·曼托卡牌售价高达520万美元。据估计,目前体育类卡牌的整体市场规模约为50亿美元。
人们最近开始关注非同质化代币,这也让体育类卡牌和收藏类卡牌从中获益,因为两者都有数字交易卡牌——因此,如果能够追踪某一卡牌的所有人,此类卡牌可能在收藏界更加珍贵。

Bitcoin? That’s so last month. NFTs? Old and busted. Pokemon cards are the new hotness.
One collector recently paid $311,800 for a Charizard trading card from the popular series. Others are up for sale on eBay with prices currently ranging from $11,000 to $270,000.
The recent sale was for a rare version of the card, which was certified in perfect condition by an independent rating service. All totaled the card received 124 bids.
The $300,000-plus sale actually isn’t the highest price ever paid for a Pokemon card. Earlier this year, a collector paid $360,000 for a rare Blastoise card. A sealed box of first edition cards sold for $408,000 around the same time.
Pokemon is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and interest in the series is stronger than ever, fueled in part by nostalgia and in part by the Pokemon Co.’s wide footprint of products, which range from the card game to a successful partnership with Nintendo to a popular mobile game to film and TV series.
Interest in collectable cards in general has been spiking lately. Sports trading cards have seen some very high profile sales, including $4.6 million for an autographed rookie card of Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic and $5.2 million for a 1952 Micky Mantle card. The overall market for sports cards is now estimated to be roughly $5 billion.
Both sports and collectible cards could also profit from the recent interest in NFTs as both already have digital trading card options – so adding the ability to track ownership of particular assets could make them even more valuable to collectors.
YouTube star Logan Paul racked up sales of over $500,000 earlier this month on digital Pokemon cards that included his own image.
