Yes I think cards are being used to hedge inflation.
I am easily one of the least educated/experienced persons on this forum, but it doesn't take a genius to see the American Dollar is becoming more and more worthless. Currency is changing, as crypto becomes more and more legitimate. Government is printing money at will, and the basic economic principles aren't there for a healthy economy. The number of "financial gurus" and big time investors coming into the hobby are not by coinkydink. I do believe there is an element of manipulation at play when it comes to modern at the very least, but I think most vintage and especially pre-war are pretty safe places to park money; tangible assets with a huge interest base and limited supply that will only increase in the tiniest of amounts, if at all.
