🚀 MemeStrategy Launches Tokenized Fund for Pokémon Collectible Cards

On March 3, MemeStrategy, a digital asset company listed in Asia (HKEX:2440), announced the launch of the world's first tokenized fund for Pokémon collectible cards, aimed at professional investors. According to BlockBeats, the fund offers tokenized equity through the licensed alternative asset digital investment platform, EVIDENT Platform Services Limited, with the goal of establishing an institutional-grade investment channel for the collectible card market.

The fund will focus on investing in PSA 10-rated 'Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat' cards. These cards were jointly released by The Pokémon Company and the Van Gogh Museum, inspired by Van Gogh's famous self-portrait with a grey felt hat, and are part of a limited edition. The company disclosed that there are approximately 47,000 PSA 10-grade cards in circulation, with an estimated total market value exceeding $94 million. The fund aims to acquire about 25% of the PSA 10-grade cards available in the market.

Citing market data, the company noted that the global collectibles market is projected to reach $628 billion by 2031, with the collectible card segment expected to grow from $14.7 billion in 2025 to $37.42 billion by 2034. Over the past 20 years, the value of Pokémon cards has increased more than 30 times, with high-end single card auction records continuously being broken, including the 'Pikachu Illustrator' PSA 10 card, once owned by Logan Paul, which sold for $16.492 million.

In terms of structure, the fund is managed by MemeStrategy's wholly-owned subsidiary, RWA Labs Limited, which acts as the general partner (GP) and simultaneously as a limited partner (LP) for strategic investment. The physical cards are authenticated, insured, and stored in museum-grade temperature and humidity-controlled conditions by the Grade10 vault. The related assets will undergo semi-annual reserve proof audits by one of the Big Four accounting firms.
