RisingStar Investment Tips - Cheap RARE Cards to BUY AND HOLD!!

Take a look at these rare RisingStar cards that you can invest; they're TOO cheap considering how much Fans and Skill they provide!

RisingStar Game

If you're not aware of what RisingStar is, in a very brief manner, it's a NFT game based on the Hive Network in which the players are musicians trying to build their own career and shoot to stardom!

In the game, there are a few stats going on, but the most important stats are FANS and SKILL.

In order to progress in the game, players need to get more FANS: the more fans you have, the better missions you unlock, allowing you to earn more STARBITS (the in-game currency and a 2nd layer Hive Token).

SKILL, in the other hand, is related to a handicapping mechanic called "EGO": the more EGO you have, the less STARBITS you earn per mission. You counter the EGO by raising your own SKILL.

Thus, in the end, to progress on the game and earn more STARBITS, players need both FANS and SKILL.

Cheap RARE Cards to BUY AND HOLD!!

Without further ado, I'll be sharing with you folks this nice spreadsheet that I've built today (22/January/2022)!

Above we can see the stats and current market price of all the basic Rare cards of the game, from R100 (Pixie) to R139 (Bladesong).

Above we can see the BEST cards to invest in the game, which means that they're currently costing less compared to the total (Skill + Fan) that they give to the player. Groovy and Rachael both tie together as the best card to invest into, as both cost only 23,64 Starbits per point of Skill or Fan.

Other good, cheap cards to buy are: James, Hetty, Trevor, Benson, Desmond, Dan, DJ Chad, Star Child and Jeeves. All of them are currently costing less than 30 Starbits/(Skill+Fan). Nice deal, isn't it?

These top cards are also usually the most well-rounded cards, which means that they give more Skill AND Fan for their price. A good player is a player with balanced stats!

If you're just wanting to increase the number of Fans and don't care about Skill, you can see above the best cards to buy.

Lots of cards tie together: Groovy, Rachael, Desmond, Garlic, Rentaw, Sarge, Zapf, Luthien, Drabs, Silent X, Gameboy Ali and Bladesong.

Finally, if you just want to raise your Skill, disregarding the number of Fans, you should be buying Benson and Dan, both costing less than 40 Starbits/Skill.

Investment Case: Efficient Market Hypothesis

My investment case is simple and based on the Efficient Market Hypothesis.

In an efficient market, all the cards should be costing proportionally the same; eg if Card A gives 10 fans and Card B gives 100 fans, Card B should cost 10x more than Card A.

As we can see, there are dozens of Rare cards in the game, and they're currently with very different prices between them: you can spend only 23,64 Starbits per (Skill+Fan) if you buy Groovy and Rachael, but you'll spend more than 50 Starbits if you buy Butch.

Why would someone buy Butch? They just won't. They'll buy all the Groovy and Rachael from the market.

Do you want to profit? Buy them before anyone else does.
