$87k is chump change; according to this article, there is about $500M in value in the NBA's Top Shot (NFT) program alone.

Of course, that's only 25% compared to its peak in the spring of 2021 (when it was almost $2B). I wonder how much money people lost if they bought at the top.

The old adage still stands: something is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it, whether it's a precious metal, and signed jersey, or digital highlight of Steph Curry shooting a basketball
