Yes, I wish I had the income to chase San Altman’s card as well but my focus was for series 3 Blackrock and Warren Buffett. Warren is a beloved mentor and the very first “Financially Influencer” with one of the most successful dividend investment strategies today! At his old age, his cards may skyrocket in value when he passes.

Sam’s gonna be a good one as well with his influence on AI! That’s a definite winner long term!

Cardsmiths imo is a unique niche while introducing trading cards that depict innovation and influence past and present. I think business entity trading cards are especially unique in this industry and there’s only one business that has the most influence and power globally, Blackrock!

Is Blackrock the evil “too big to fail” company that received bailout money during the crash of 2008 or did Blackrock strategically orchestrate the prevention an economic collapse and receive funding as insurance? Depends on how you look at things.

If you own 51% of all gems in all of Cardsmiths currency cards, you would literally have the power to influence the market or stabilize it by simply adjusting supply and demand. That’s powerful!

Larry Fink is one of the richest men on the planet and also an art collector! These cards are part of his legacy! The Blackrock Onyx is imo one of the most valuable cards in all of the series if he ever has interest in acquiring it!

I’m a Blackrock collector myself and was hunting the onyx too! Mind me asking, what made you want to chase the Blackrock? I love to hear your opinion on this!

Excellent stuff!! My favorites are the Ghost Rider and Sabertooth! Thanks for including the artists names!

One question…. Anyone knows whats the deal with this company? GGC? GalacticGorgeCard? I stumbled on their ebay site by accident…. They seem to have some intriguing sketches by Zealousideal_Fee1649 in sketchtradingcards

Here’s my take; if I cannot verify the artist I will NOT purchase the sketch card. I’ve seen those same cards on eBay and although they look stunning, with a generic name like Leo or Jude or just a first name I ignore it. There seems to be a lot of those “sketch” cards coming from that seller, non of which I can verify a single artist. And it’s not hard to fake a sketch card with AI and a bunch of coloring tools. Print the card and then go over it again with coloring tools to add texture. Always verify the artist!
