Tokenized Pokémon TCG marketplaces are printing money.
After the breakout success of $CARDS, the entire sector has taken a leg up. Last week's revenue was $4.2 million, the highest ever!
@Courtyard_io is now making over $100 million annualized on Pokémon cards alone.
@Collector_Crypt stands at $37.5 million annualized revenue, increasing 106% over the past month.
But perhaps the biggest winner has been @phygitals, which grew its revenue 10x over the past month ($22.3 million annualized)!
Lastly, keep an eye out for @ripdotfun. Even though it's in closed beta, its revenue increased 120% to $1.3M.
Introducing the first batch of MegaMafia 2.0.

Looking at this on the lower time frame.
Even if we are destined to trade lower, I don't think bears get a free ride there.
At least a couple of these highs gotta get run IMO.

I don't do a ton of memecoin trading these days, mostly bc I don't feel like I have an edge bc of the tooling arms race.
But my bodoggo friends recently shared Rhythm with me and it's been fun to test drive over the last few days.
The dashboard is sick. Has a lot of great quick-look information that's useful for gauging market sentiment and tracking the "hot ball of money" onchain.
My favorite part is the First Wave signal sourcing feature that uses some proprietary algo to source potentially valuable tokens early. It caught Braveheart this morning super low and a number of other high value/early spots over the last week while I've been observing.
It's a big release from my friends at Moonpay and Bodoggos, so I'm happy to help support them launching today via a signal boost (this isn't paid - I just like supporting my friends when they build cool stuff).
