Description

Our memories have order - Our reality, anything but - Try as we might, our collections spread through our homes (& in our case: wallets) - We find them in shoe boxes, night-stand drawers, bookshelves - But when we see that Pokémon card - We're teleported through time & space Selective Memory - We've gone through a lot together ... these past 7 days - Grew up, found our place in world, journeyed through the abyss, & made it to the other side - Finally bought our home - Now we can relax some - in moments between life Nostalgia Drives Collecting - Hot collecting markets in any era - It's what the people age 35-55 are buying - When you've bought your home, have your cars - And life is stable ... people dig to past and buy what they wanted as kids We are all Collectors - Some started collecting in web3, some had history in other markets - We often hear in web3, it's all about the art - To the point where the phrase is approaching meme status - But collecting typically is less about art - & mostly centered on nostalgia Collecting in Digital Landscape - Time here seems to move faster - We experience ample trauma, we spend more time in the Abyss and often revert back - Nostalgia here: like a synthetic diamond - Memories compressed by volatility - Quick forming nostalgia Remains to be seen - If nostalgia will drive buying in medium term - But as enough of us pick up that odd ball piece - We wanted back in 2021 when it was 30x today's price - Perhaps nostalgia may be the new narrative - But don't speculate ... only collect what transports you
