The NBA Top Shot NFT marketplace has been declining for months after booming earlier this year. Here is how to fix it:
- LE Everything
Announce all currently open circulating count moments will become LE. This caused a massive spike in the market last time it happened. - Set Print Limits
Assign a limit of moments per year for each player for each rarity tier. Players who already have a lot of moments like Giannis and Zion should get less moments the next year. - Tickets Exchange
Begin the ticket system by allowing people to send moments to the Top Shot account. Give people more tickets for rare and legendary moments than common ones. Reward those who send in tickets sooner with drawings for packs and moments. - Burning
Users can basically burn moments right now by sending it to another frozen account. Top Shot just needs to keep track of what is sent there and by whom. Incentivize this by requiring it for challenge rewards or drops. - Staking
Give users fee discounts, Dapper credits, baller status points, packs and moments for holding. The length of owning the moment and how rare it is should compound the rewards. - Buy Back
Top shot uses a portion of profits to buy back moment to stimulate the marketplace. These moments can then be used for promotions. - Fantasy Sports
MomentRanks has already implemented moments utility with their fantasy league. Top Shot should partner with them as well as expedite the Hardcourt game they are still testing out before release to the public. Additional promotions with FanDuel and DraftKings should be done. - Referral Rewards
Compensate users for bringing in people and capital to the platform. - Payment Options
Improve bank transfers, add more cryptocurrency options and stablecoins, PayPal, Venmo, etc. - Roadmap
Upcoming product releases time estimates (like Hardcourt game, mobile app) and events / major pack release dates need to be known. - Rewards Shop
Offer digital and real world items that collectors can receive as a reward. Team NFTs, avatar clothing, hats, hoodies, shirts, mugs, etc. Fans will get items while helping promote the brand. - Daily Challenges
Pick a random moment each day that will result in rewards for the holder. This will also bring more traffic to the site. - Player Autographs
Add customized digital signatures & audio to more rewards. This will add uniqueness. - Leaderboard Prizes
Reward collecting by gamification. Top buyers get top prizes.
