Maybe it's connected to the decline in Bitcoin values?

Yup! Definitely one of the reasons....

However, i think this 1952 Topps complete set was a steal. $74K

Goldin advertised this card as the most important modern card, and the holy grail of the card hobby. A bit of humble pie looks good on them. This card is trash, and it's nice to see the market didn't fall for their advertising blitz.

Yeah, I just don’t see it. I mean $2m is nothing to sneeze at but it’s arguably the second best player of all time at best (which is amazing but still) and not even signed.

Whoever bought it (might be a group of people) clearly can afford it without breaking a sweat. An "investment" no doubt. The whole concept of the card strikes me as innane.

I'd comfortably say with the degree of derision the card got from many people it will never sell for a profit. But more likely someone will find this post in 10 years and mock me for being an idiot.

Buyer(s) could have bought all of these instead and kept 1.5M for a rainy day.

Or it will pop up on eBay later this week with an 8 mil BIN and "🔥 INVEST 🔥 PSA 10?"
