🎴 Opening card packs on-chain—earning more than Hyperliquid?
The hottest thing on Solana these past couple of days isn’t a new meme coin—it’s Pokémon card packs.
Collector Crypt stores physical cards graded by PSA and others in insured vaults, then tokenizes them as NFTs for on-chain trading. Want the physical card? You can redeem it anytime. The main draw is opening Gacha packs—in other words, on-chain card pulls.
A few stats making the rounds on X:
🔹 Several users posted screenshots claiming its 24-hour revenue exceeded Hyperliquid’s; Solana News estimated its daily revenue at around $1.8 million
🔹 According to defioasis, daily pack-opening volume across ecosystem apps topped $7.5 million, a new record. Pump.fun integrated just two days ago and already contributed around $5.9 million in a single day
🔹 Around 20 third-party apps have integrated pack openings, including Pump.fun and Jupiter
🔹 According to figures compiled on X, around 106,000 packs were opened in a day, and more than 20,000 wallets held tokenized cards
But the most interesting data comes from RipIndex:
The best pack this week cost $5,000 per pull (567 pulls), with players up around 8.2% overall;
The worst was Courtyard’s $15 entry-level pack (around 19,000 pulls), with players down around 22.5% overall.
My take:
This is a real revenue-generating sector, not just TVL going around in circles. But where does the revenue come from? Mostly from people opening packs. The cheapest packs get opened the most—and also lead to the biggest losses. It’s pretty much the same dynamic as gacha games and scratch-off tickets.
So if you want to try it, treat it as an entertainment expense, not an investment. If you genuinely like the cards, buying the one you want outright is often a better deal than gambling on pack openings.
