01
Index, band, mark price
What you trade is the category's price. The mark price is anchored to the index and never leaves a narrow band around it.
INDEX · NARROW BAND · ANCHORED
COLLECTIBLE INDEXES · SOLANA
For the first time, an entire collectibles category has one single price feed, live, on which you can take a directional bet. Priced from real on-chain sales.
One price for graded Pokémon as a whole, computed from graded sales across 20+ marketplaces, traded long or short with USDC on Solana.

01 · THE PROBLEM
A PSA 10 Base Set Charizard has a price. Several, in fact, updated daily and argued over in public. Graded Pokémon has none. Neither does vintage Magic or NBA rookies.
The category is where collectors think, argue and put their money, and it was the one thing nobody could take a position on.
“As a childhood hobby becomes an asset class…”
“Trading cards are no longer simply consumer products.”
“There has never been a central registry or clearing house for this market.”
02 · THE FIRST
Quanta is the first tradable index on physical collectibles, priced from on-chain sales.

04 · THE INDEXES
The card market has been indexed since 2004: one index per category, computed from graded sales across 20+ marketplaces. Here it is, live. None of it was tradable. That gap is the product.
