Logan Paul reportedly sells rare Pokémon card for $16.5 million after prior NFT dispute

Logan Paul has reportedly sold a rare Pokémon card for $16.5 million, marking another headline moment for one of the best-known collectibles in the crypto and NFT-adjacent scene. The sale comes years after he fractionalized ownership of the same card through Liquid Marketplace in 2022.

That earlier move drew scrutiny after Liquid Marketplace later went offline, leading to a lawsuit as investors demanded returns tied to the fractional ownership arrangement. The episode became a notable example of how digital ownership experiments can create complications when platforms shut down or fail to deliver as expected.

For readers following crypto culture and NFT history, the story highlights the ongoing overlap between high-value physical collectibles and blockchain-based ownership structures. It also shows how celebrity-led drops and tokenized collectibles can attract attention well beyond the usual crypto audience.

While the new sale centers on a physical item, the earlier fractionalization effort keeps the story connected to broader questions around NFT platforms, investor expectations, and the durability of marketplace infrastructure. The outcome adds another chapter to Paul’s public role in the collectible and crypto crossover space.
