#430: RWA Pokemon Cards on ApeChain and more

Grateful Crew

Pokémon cards are quietly becoming a serious on-chain asset, and this episode shows why that matters.

W sat down with the builders bringing real, authenticated Pokémon cards to ApeChain—and we talked about what actually changes when physical collectibles move on-chain. Not theory. Real cards. Real vaults. Real liquidity.

We get into how pack ripping works on ApeChain, why trust and authentication are the hard problems, and what happens when collecting stops being limited by geography, shipping, or middlemen. 

We cover:

  • How real Pokémon cards are authenticated, vaulted, and tokenized
  • What “pack ripping” looks like when it’s fully on-chain
  • Why Pokémon cards are outperforming many traditional assets
  • The difference between gambling and positive expected value
  • How collectors can hold, trade, or redeem physical cards anytime
  • Why ApeChain is a natural home for real-world collectibles

If you collect, grew up with Pokémon, or care about real use cases for Web3, this one’s worth your time.
