Pokémon Trading Cards Have Its Polymarket Moment in RWA Space

Pokémon Trading Cards Have Its Polymarket Moment in RWA Space

The post Pokémon Trading Cards Have Its Polymarket Moment in RWA Space appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pokémon trading cards could be the next real-world asset to move onchain at scale, potentially bringing a $21.4 billion market to the blockchain.  “Pokémon and other [trading card games] are about to have their ‘Polymarket moment,’” said Bitwise research analyst Danny Nelson on Thursday.  “I expect the Pokémon boom will be sticky — one of those moments where an ‘only in crypto’ innovation breaks into the mainstream. Kinda like what Polymarket did for prediction markets.” RWA crypto tokenization has boomed into a $28.2 billion market in 2025, but it is almost entirely catered to TradFi assets like stocks, treasuries, commodities, private credit and real estate. While this offers improved benefits such as 24/7 trading and potential cost savings, it doesn’t transform them as “good enough digital rails already exist,” Nelson said. However, Pokémon card trading could benefit far more from the blockchain, Nelson said, noting that sellers still have to physically ship their Charizard, Pikachu and Gardevoirs to buyers. Source: Metaplex Pokémon ETFs in future? Nelson said it’s possible He noted that the inefficient solution still saw market leader Whatnot facilitate $3 billion in sales last year. “This market remains largely informal. You don’t see Pokémon ETFs or investment funds, and you probably won’t for a while. But maybe not as long as you’d think.” Pokémon cards and other trading card games like Magic: The Gathering have been around for about three decades, long before non-fungible tokens were ever a concept. A new market leader paving the way Nelson’s comments come as Collector Crypt recently emerged as a tokenization platform for selling Pokémon cards on Solana, enabling fast trades and profitable exits. The token backing Collector Crypt, CARDS, has already risen 10-fold to a fully diluted volume of $450 million since launching last Saturday, Nelson pointed out. Related: CZ-owned Trust Wallet…

NFT Trading Volume And Sales Climb Again

NFT Trading Volume And Sales Climb Again

The post NFT Trading Volume And Sales Climb Again appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The non-fungible token (NFT) market has just closed its two strongest months since February as adoption and renewed interest have driven trading volumes to its highest levels this year. NFT trading volumes were up 9%, but sales counts dipped 4%, showing that while “fewer assets traded hands, collectors are paying more per sale,” according to a report published by blockchain analytics platform DappRadar on Thursday. CoinGecko shows that trading volumes for NFTs spiked in the last 24 hours, rising more than 25% to reach a high of $7.9 million. Resurgence driven by adoption A key driver of the uptick in the NFT market comes from adoption, according to DappRadar analyst Sara Gherghelas. She pointed to cases such as the nightclub Hï in Ibiza, an island near Spain, which opened the first permanent NFT art gallery inside a club, showcasing works from NFT artists like Beeple and Mad Dog Jones. Another driver is the Coinbase layer-2 network Base, which climbed to become the third-largest chain by trading volume, sparked by low minting costs and airdrop speculation. Source: DappRadar However, Gherghelas said Ethereum “remains the powerhouse,” commanding 61% dominance in the NFT industry. In August, developers also introduced trustless agents.” “This could allow AI systems and DApps to safely recognize and interact with one another using NFT-based IDs and reputation layers,” Gherghelas added. In July, American rapper Snoop Dogg sold out a collection of almost 1,000 NFTs on Telegram in 30 minutes, which also sparked discussions about a possible market resurgence. Investors, degens are trading NFTs again NFTs saw $578 million in trading volumes and 5.5 million sales in August, up slightly from July, which saw $530 million in trading and 5.2 million sales, according to DappRadar. January was the biggest month for 2025 so far in trading volumes, with $997 million,…

The Crypto Transparency Revolution Nobody Asked For

The Crypto Transparency Revolution Nobody Asked For

The OECD’s Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) establishes global standards for monitoring, reporting, and exchanging information on crypto transactions. Designed to combat tax evasion, CARF mandates reporting from exchanges, intermediaries, and service providers on activities involving NFTs, crypto-fiat trades, and wallet transfers. While the framework expands definitions beyond FATF standards and promotes international cooperation, challenges remain around decentralized platforms, reliable identification of wallet owners, and enforcement in cross-border contexts.

Why the World Needs a Unified Plan for Crypto Tax and Regulation

Why the World Needs a Unified Plan for Crypto Tax and Regulation

Crypto’s borderless nature makes it a challenge for tax administrations worldwide, enabling potential tax evasion and regulatory arbitrage. International organizations—including the IMF, UNCTAD, FATF, OECD, and G20—are calling for coordinated global policies to close loopholes, improve compliance, and enhance transparency. The FATF Travel Rule, in particular, requires VASPs to collect and share detailed sender and recipient data, but implementation faces hurdles like interoperability, data privacy, and unhosted wallet transactions. Despite these challenges, efforts continue to build a unified global framework for regulating virtual assets while balancing financial integrity with innovation.
