Pal said that just as “the economy recovers” and “luxury real estate” often outperforms the market, the same is likely to happen with certain NFTs during the crypto boom cycle. .

“So I can put my ETH in JPEGs and NFTs. [Crypto]Whether in London, New York, Hong Kong, or anywhere else, punks like luxury properties, when the economy starts to boom and people have more money, they tend to buy expensive luxury properties.

“And it tends to outperform the rest of the market. And I think the same thing will happen with the ETH economy,” he added.

He emphasized that major collections such as CryptoPunks and Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) have become status symbols for the crypto community. This is similar to owning a luxury home, car, or name-brand item and providing access to an exclusive club, or what he called a “mini-network state.”

He suggested that NFTs could serve as “a way to own assets in the ETH economy,” adding:

“Humans are silly and love to inform something socially.”

Pal said he has allocated about 10% of the ETH he owns to “premium NFTs” such as CryptoPunks and BAYC NFTs since he started NFTs.

He suggested that such collections may offer more upside potential than downside risk as they have managed to maintain decent levels of value during bear markets. also believes that the price of ETH is likely to rise in the future.

“If you look at the prices of Crypto Punks and Bored Apes, they are incredibly stable when you look at them in ETH. It’s interesting to me because they didn’t drop any further.They did spike in June with the big crypto crash, but outside of that they rallied again and stayed at 65 ETH. So whatever ETH does, they just reflect that,” he said.
