Why should I buy punks when I can just buy a key and access my punk myself ? Moreover, if I buy this key, then I can get a punk of a high level of rarity.
The probability of getting a legendary punk if you buy a key and use it yourself to open your punk is only 5 percent. That is - 1/20. On average, you will have to buy about 20 keys in order to open just one legendary punk. Considering that now the cost of a key is about 15$, this is not so profitable. While at the moment, high-ranking panks can still be bought at relatively low prices.
In addition, at this price ($ 15), there are now only a few keys available. The bulk of the keys have a listing at a price of 0.08 BNB, i.e. 25$:
Can i really earn something on these punks? Can someone explain to me why i should buy them? It's almost the same as those that are now worth hundreds of thousands? Why was it necessary to create exactly the same? Isn't this plagiarism? What is their value. I do not quite understand this hype about these pictures.
Yes, of course you can make money on it. Not only because closer to the release of the game prices for punks will have to rise a lot, but also because participation in the game will mean earning money right inside the game space. You just have to wait until the release of the first (and far from the last) game will be announced. This should happen already in the summer. Presumably in July. In addition, as soon as the game is announced, all owners of smart punks will participate in regular airdrops.
