Our take
Co-founded by baseball Hall of Fame awardee Derek Jeter, Arena Club was established in 2021 and certainly has a lot of publicity behind it within the sports community. Rightly so, following the trend of physical businesses moving to digital, Arena Club is transforming the way that trading cards are evaluated and traded within the hobby's community.
NFTs, on-chain valuations, and digital collector showrooms abound, Arena Club received substantial Series A funding in December 22 and will use it to grow its employees and add functionality to its platform.
Arena Club’s Beta success is thanks to the savvy melding of sports talent backing and machine learning technology, allowing for cards to be graded virtually for inclusion and sale on the website. The company is well set to see success, being set within a market estimated to grow by $6.7 billion between 2022 and 2026.
