Who said that NFTs are “dead” ? Excitement and curiosity around non-fungible tokens may have waned, but digital art would be in the process of “ build up slowly », specifies Jean-Michel Pailhon, founder of NFT Factory Paris. So, the success that the NFT Pokémon cards recently deployed on Polygon are currently experiencing does not surprise us.
Courtyard NFT Pokemon Cards, All Sold
In an interview with Tremplin.io, Jean-Michel Pailhon predicted that “ the market [des NFT] will come back probably stronger and more stable in the near future, and investors will be more reasonable “. That is to say, less and less excited about the “NFT hype”. He also expects renewed interest from collectors and institutions.
While waiting for the comeback of non-fungible tokens, let’s take a look at this unexpected phenomenon of selling authentic digital collectibles.
“ Pokémon NFT card packs are the talk of Polygon »
The article attached by NFT Now to this tweet highlights “ a flash sale » packs of NFT Pokémon cards which did not fail to increase the exchange volume of Polygon, issuer of the MATIC crypto.
The sale, called “ Stress Test: Break Courtyard.io », allowed buyers two possibilities:
- purchase of NFT Pokemon cards for 5 dollars;
- and purchase of “mystery boxes”, containing virtual packs including announced Pokémon-themed cards (NBA Topshot, Moments, etc.).
On the official website from Courtyard.io, we took an extract from the presentation of this Pokémon NFT project.

“ We are working on something BIG and we need your help. We’ve learned a lot over the past few months and have made improvements to meet demand. You only have one task left to complete: Break Courtyard.io. »
And the Courtyard team continues:
“ Shortly after dropping, you can tear and reveal your pack to see what you got. You can choose to rent, trade or buy back from the vault. Everything happens on-chain, which proves the fairness and randomness of the distribution. »
Polygon, the new Eldorado of NFTs?
Polygon, whose MATIC token is struggling to regain its ATH of December 27, 2021 at $2.92, does not lack appeal in the eyes of NFT project promoters. Earlier this year, Dune Analytics published a report highlighting a increase to 1.6 million Polygon users on OpenSea.
NFT Pokémon cards are just a logical continuation ofassociations with major brands. You have probably heard about the launch of G-SHOCK NFT watches at the beginning of this month of September. The decline of the digital asset market has not demotivated Casio in its unique NFT project associated with G-SHOCK.
