Tokenised Pokémon cards are gaining attention as collectors trade physical cards through blockchain-based platforms.
Collector Crypt reported $44 million in monthly trading volume, up 124% from the previous month.
“Pokémon and other TCGs are about to have their ‘Polymarket moment,’” Bitwise research analyst Danny Nelson wrote on X.
The comparison refers to Polymarket’s role in bringing prediction markets to a wider audience through blockchain-based trading.
Trading card real-world asset platforms reached $87.2 million in market capitalisation, according to CoinGecko data cited by BeInCrypto.
Rival platform Phygitals recorded $2 million in monthly volume, up 245%, while Collector Crypt’s volume reached $44 million.
The activity shows how blockchain platforms are expanding tokenisation beyond financial assets into collectibles such as Pokémon trading cards.
