Sold this grail Hoodie CryptoPunk yesterday for $426,000 USD. 💰 🤑 What floors am I sweeping? 🧹 Going a bit unconventional with the approach on the shopping spree compared to most of this space. No, not more NFTs, $MOG or ticker $BITCOIN (for now). We’re going physical collectible grail allocation shopping after selling my digital grail that served me well (was too used to comfy life). Something wayyy older before Punks existed. POKÉMON. Let’s take a look 👇 🔴 Pokémon 1999 sealed base booster box (x4) English set 🔵 Pokémon vintage 1996 sealed Japanese (“Pocket Monster”) base booster box (my holy grail in sealed collectibles TCG) 🟢 Vintage Japanese sealed Fossil (‘97) and Gym Heroes (‘98) sealed booster box + PSA graded slabs of sealed booster packs of the original 1999 English with some heavies! 🏋️‍♂️ For many of us in the space, we’re obsessed with these NFTs due to our core love for collecting as kids. Whether it’s pogs, Barbie’s, HotWheels, sports cards or Pokémon. Those collections and fun of ownership is what resonates so well with us NFT nerds. The sale of my punk allowed rotation into physical grails that the kid version of me would never believe I’d acquire one day that I’ve wanted to pull the trigger on for a hot minute. I’ve seen a lot of emergence of physical meets digital tokenization (cc @0xsammy & @ericwhiteback) that is a really cool use of NFTs and the blockchain for transacting and overlapping interests in collecting which is an awesome start with a bright future ahead. 🙌 Don’t forget to take profits, have some fun with it all and extend your range into collecting physical grails that align with your digital journey. Those paths will overlap sooner than we know. 🫡 Yes - time for me to change my pfp soon since I no longer own the hoodie punk but allow me one last engagement farming while the irons hot without calling the NFT police please @OneAndOnlyPapii 😂 @cryptopunks @Pokemon @yugalabs
