Shuffle casino's revenue is shared through the casino's mechanism of buying back the token and burning them, which produces demand + scarcity.
This is one of those moments that we've been waiting for, but don't expect it to happen in the near future because so far Shuffle team has burned 5% of the supply and 64% (639,356,547 SHFL) still locked means the process will take longer. To see the real price we have to wait for all the tokens to be released.
If you're talking about waiting for an actual price surge to happen during the current situation, then that should mean that Shuffle should have a banner year for consecutive years so that the buy backs also increase, no?
Shuffle is doing very well considering that it's a new casino trying to take its share of the crypto gambling market. Give it time. Casinos, as well as exchanges, are the most profitable businesses in crypto. There's more opportunities to grow.
The casino itself can grow but how about the token's long term future should be the real question, I say this because when it comes to casino tokens and exchange tokens, both can not be compared because exchange tokens often comes with some really good utilities which ensures their long term growth in the price or value of the asset.
But for casinos, most casinos tokens end up being useless, that is, there is no other use for the token except staking which overtime may become very boring for investors and holders of the token, so if shuffle really care about the long term value of their token, it is paramount for them to really pay attention and create very good utility for the tokens, this is what will create interest in the token, and ensure it's long term value.
