CARDS Surges Over 43% in 24 Hours, Market Cap Exceeds $180 Million

BlockBeats News, January 14: According to GMGN market data, the Solana ecosystem's physical card trading platform Collector Crypt's token CARDS surged over 43% in 24 hours, with a market cap reaching $186 million and a 24-hour trading volume of $5.3 million. The price increase of CARDS may be related to the overall rising popularity of the Pokémon card market. According to monitoring by PolyBeats, Logan Paul announced that he will auction his PSA 10-grade Pokémon Illustrator card in January 2026. Some funds on Polymarket have started betting that the final transaction price of this card will exceed $15 million. Logan Paul previously purchased the card at a cost of approximately $5.275 million. The founder of the renowned auction house Goldin Auctions, Ken Goldin, had privately offered $7 million to acquire the card, but Logan Paul declined. Recent buying activity targeting the $15 million-plus option suggests that some investors believe competitive bidding at the auction could drive the price far beyond historical records.
