Sarah Todd:
The Jazz will have losses to six of the seven teams with the worst records in the league after this one. And no signature win over top-tier teams.

Being a Jazz fan is torture right now. Something needs to change.

To understand why Todd will beat Risso, we first have to understand why Risso is currently more expensive. Right now, the majority of Veve Users are innovators and early adopters - people who see the huge potential of Veve. So inherently, these people have the mindset of an investor. Their goal is to make as much profit as possible. Naturally, they would go for the Risso Batman, as they believe that rarer is always better, and Ultra Rare beats Common. And with a relatively small user base as Veve has now, it does indeed make a difference whether a collectable has 1750 copies or 7500 copies available. This is where we are now.
But assuming that Veve will be growing to be a trillion dollar business and become a household name - what will the situation be in 5 years?
If Veve becomes as big as we think it will, the user pool will change as well. The majority of users will be collectors and fans of the franchises, not investors. Collectors will enter later, because every hobby needs time to establish itself first. A hobby has to earn the trust of collectors, it has to prove that it can sustain itself and not perish in a downturn period. A hobby also needs time to develop because a key success factor is nostalgia. Nostalgia is what brings people back to the hobby even if they temporarily leave, and it creates an emotional bond with the hobby. Lastly, Veve has an especially difficult job because it has to establish NFTs as serious alternative to physical collectables - something that nobody has ever done before. And I know how hard this is, because I know seasoned collectors from the sports cards and TCG field who still look down on NFTs as cash grab and Ponzi scheme.
So, what happens once Veve becomes an actual platform for collectors? It means that users will start caring about factors that we know from other established hobbies: Rarity, Age (the older the collectable, the better), Rookie collectables (First Appearances), and items that are part of the history of the hobby. If we now compare Todd vs Risso, how do they fare?
Rarity: Risso beats Todd here. However, once we reach 50 million active users, both will be so rare in the big picture that the difference between 1750 copies (Risso) and 7500 (Todd) will be negligible. There is no way that among 50 million users, there are 1750 serious collectors but not 7500.
Age: Basically a tie. Both are Season 1 and the first set ever. Todd however counts as FA while Risso is only FE.
Rookie appearance: Todd beats

Curious if Superman will keep going up..I'm tempted to liquidate and get one, I know it's not super smart to put all your eggs in one basket but the mint # is around the same and it's superman..
Looking for this album let me know if anyone has a copy they’d like to part with
This is the obligatory filler part of the post so I could hit the requirement for post rules which really doesn’t make sense to me.
Hoping he does a show in my state so I can get the meet and greet package. I went to the November 5 show in Grand Rapids and it was great (even got to meet Michele after the show!) but I didn't get the meet and greet. I really want to meet him in person
