Very cool indeed.
As indicated by Mrstacy, notable eBay sale:
The second edition minis are likely limited to less than 100 copies.
That would seem about right based on the total print run..
To add a little more info... I read that Topps purposefully holds back a percentage of cards (both common and rare) to use as replacements for any cards that may have been damaged upon arrival. For instance, one baseball card collector recently wrote on a forum that his friend received a 1/1 printing plate in 2017 which had a bad scratch across the surface. He sent it back and received a different 1/1 printing plate (from the same card) as a replacement. That means only 3 of those 4 printing plates made it into packs for the wild. Something to keep in mind when considering odds and rarity for the #83 Cryptocurrency card.
EDIT: In other words, some variations of the #83 Cryptocurrency card will be rarer than we think.

So to sum it up, there are 354,312 variations of this card. Dam you topps

The 2nd edition mini's will become difficult to come by since the entire set was short printed and collectors will be hanging on to a few of these. So get them while you can when you see them, just my opinion 
What do you mean by "2nd edition" minis? Do you mean the Black Hobby X minis?

Yes, I was confused by this and dolph confirmed that he's referring to the overall X series minis. (I thought maybe there were two printings within the X series).

I'm seeing Rip cards too. Can't forget those.
Seems like all the card holders woke up and posted on ebay tonight... Wow, so many listings now!!!
As the #83 cards are going up in price it became a good gamble to break open all the hoarded boxes and take a chance on hitting some cryptocurrency cards. The #83 card has been showing up on average of 1 per 4 boxes and there were less than 200 cases produced i.e. short printed. A total off 600 of these 2nd edition cards.

What is the going rate on ebay these days? These are the 1/300s?
I do not know the official count on these only that they are short printed
Ha. By short printed you probably mean not the full set of 300+ and not printed by someone less than 5'4". This is kind of fun learning all this. i appreciate your insight.

I do not know the official count on these only that they are short printed as there were less than 200 cases produced. I believe there are 12 boxes in each case.
