Fanatics is not good for this hobby, much like Walmart was not good for local businesses when they came to town. It's a tired story filled with egos, power and money. Reminds me of that cartoon my kids watched when they were kids, Pinky and the Brain, two rats who were trying to "take over the world".

This is the same outfit that spent millions pumping NFT's to the masses, how many naive investors listened to them and lost money.

Same schtick as Goldin/West just a fancier wrapper.

Makes me appreciate the old school collectors and net54 even more.
