Single commons are now widely available for $2 each, even though they announced an interesting fact. Many of the original moments from first season (much lower print runs like 4K instead of the 40K now being made) were never sold in packs and are being stockpiled by the company. You will have the option this summer to redeem some number of moments to enter a lottery to buy packs from the original season. So you would think that singles would retain some value, but with the crypto industry taking a 50% haircut this week (#thanksElonMusk) the race to the bottom is in full force.

Good luck to those who bought moments for tens or hundreds of thousands each... as always, only gamble what you can afford to lose.
