at least NBA TopShots will take up less space in your attic once everyone realizes this is dumb.

Watching my lil man play NBA 2K20 and open packs and collect players, I kind of get it the appeal - but even then he gets to use players from those packs to play online with. But the inflated nature of the market for TopShots feels insane. Who's paying $40K for a highlight for anything other than speculation and investment?

When I see stuff like this my brain always flashes back to the Tulip Mania lesson from economics class.
