The Problem

The Pokémon Grail Boom

Pokémon cards have evolved into one of the most valuable collectible markets - over $9.5B in global value and rising. High-grade slabs now trade for six and seven figures, with verified sales like the 1998 Pikachu Illustrator fetching $2M. But as prices soar, the market faces two fundamental problems.

---

1. Illiquidity

Top slabs only trade through auctions and private deals. Capital sits idle, pricing is opaque, and transactions move at the pace of the collector world, not the open market.

2. Inaccessibility

With grails priced in the hundreds of thousands, retail investors and collectors are locked out of the market entirely.

The Solution

By turning premium slabs into a vault backed, fungible token, $GRAIL transforms this illiquid, exclusive market into an onchain asset class that anyone can access and trade.
