With all of the coin collectors out there and crypto stackers I am very surprised that this space isn't shown more interest by the general public. Now this could be for a variety of reasons:
1. The general public just doesn't really know about crypto collectibles or hologrammed coins/bars etc. (i'm leaning more towards this).
2. People don't want to get scammed due to tricksters or rug pulls from shady makers copying the private keys in creation (definitely more relevant).
3. We are still very early and this space is still maturing & growing.
4. There could be other places online that people are publicly collecting & showing their coins/ products (less likely).
5. There is a lack of interest because collectibles are already a very niche space to begin with.
6. What am I missing?
Now there are some recent developments that I definitely won't downplay that are incredible so lets look at those bullet points
- Stacks Bowers & Heritage Auctions
- PCGS & ICG Grading crypto coins regularly - NGC with the one off Otto collection
Am I missing anything here above?
I am also curious where there might be other congregations and groups of collectors in this space outside of Btalk
1. Instagram
2. Redditt
3. Facebook
4. Other Forums
Can you guys list any specific groups where there are crypto collectible enthusiasts or other lesser known populations of folks into this hobby? ....
