NFTs aren't dead, they found a real use case in Pokemon TCG

For the past 5 consecutive weeks, Pokémon TCG RWA weekly revenue has surpassed $5M.

Weekly revenue grew from near zero in late 2023 to a consistent multi-million-dollar powerhouse in 2026.

The average Joe thinks NFTs died years ago, but in reality, some communities have found a proper use case.

This isn't a "one-day pump." It's a slow, steady grind of real users vaulting assets to gain an efficiency edge.

Yesterday's ComicBook.com x Collector Crypt announcement brings digital vending machines to a 40M-user audience on Solana, moving this from a crypto-native niche to a mainstream retail funnel.

Not a lot of media is talking about this. With AI now handling the bulk of newsroom summaries, I wouldn't expect AI to find this by scraping on-chain data, it's too busy recycling old headlines to see the real-time volume shifts.
