Jan. 14 — Per GMGN market data, Solana ecosystem native token CARDS (tied to collector card exchange platform Collector Crypt) has surged over 43% in the past 24 hours. Its market capitalization stands at $1.86 billion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $5.3 million. The CARDS rally may be linked to a surge in overall Pokémon card market popularity. Per PolyBeats monitoring, influencer Logan Paul has announced plans to auction his PSA 10-graded Pokémon Illustrator card in January 2026. Some capital on Polymarket has started betting the final sale price will exceed $15 million. Paul’s acquisition cost for the card was roughly $5.275 million; Goldin Auctions founder Ken Goldin previously made a private $7 million offer, which Paul turned down. Recent buying activity indicating bets on a price above $15 million suggests some expect a bidding war during the auction, pushing the price to far outpace historical records.
