Welcome to Collective
Collective is an on-chain platform that connects funders with curated trading card vendors. We give you transparent, liquid access to a market that's historically been hard to invest in.
The Problem
The trading card market — especially Pokémon — has generated exceptional returns over the past decade. But accessing this market as an investor is difficult:
High barrier to entry: You need expertise, time, and connections to buy/sell effectively
Illiquid: Cards can take weeks or months to sell at fair value
Fragmented: No easy way to get diversified exposure
Opaque: Hard to track performance or compare vendors
The Solution
Collective solves this by pooling capital and deploying it through vetted, professional vendors who do the hard work: sourcing cards, managing inventory, selling at the right time.
You deposit stablecoins. Vendors trade cards. You earn returns.
Everything happens on-chain for transparency. Your deposit is represented by vault tokens that track your share of the vault's value.
Why Pokémon?
Pokémon is the highest-grossing media franchise in history. The trading card market has shown strong, sustained growth — especially in graded vintage and modern chase cards. We're starting here because:
Deep, liquid market with global demand
Clear price discovery (auction data, grading populations)
Our founding vendor has deep expertise and a proven track record
We may expand to other TCG markets (sports cards, MTG, etc.) as we grow.
Built on HyperEVM
Collective runs on HyperEVM, the EVM-compatible layer of Hyperliquid. This gives us:
Fast, cheap transactions
Native stablecoin support
A community that understands both DeFi and alternative assets
