Making people pay a lot of money for cardboard will beat any government bond by miles.
MTG's secondary market is like half the game. Everything gets rated against market prices (is this pre-built deck worth it? time to sum up the individual card values) and WOTC (or Hasbro, w/e) responds in kind by just reprinting anything that has any value instantly.
A recent cope I've seen is how MTG is a CCG (**collectable** card game), not a TCG, so fuck you if you want to actually play with your cards for a reasonable (lmao) budget and not dump a truck load into your basement so it can age like fine wine and stonks goes up. Now if MTG dies? Then the shit basically becomes worthless over night because the value of the cards is based around the game's image.
