I haven't been that active within the Splinterverse over the past weeks/months. Its been even longer since I gave the card (nft) market a once-over. Even as I type this I have yet to check market prices so I'll be finding out which cards cost the most in USD as I create this blog post. For this installment I'm going to look at the highest listed price of a card from each core set that is a gold foil. Without looking I suspect that the highest valued cards in each set will end up being a GFL. Now lets take a look.
Above you will see the six most expensive purchasable ALPHA cards. ALPHA is by far the smallest core set within the Splinterlands game and is also the set that started it all. Currently the most expensive ALPHA card is the GFL Frost Giant which is listed for a staggering $22,000 USD. The remainder shown in the screenshot are listed from $1500-4000 USD.
Next we have the BETA cards (which are a print of ALPHA cards + introduced us to LEGENDARY SUMMONERS + NEUTRAL Monsters). The BETA card with the highest USD asking price is HYDRA which currently (07/11/2023) carries a price tag of $10,000 USD. The Elemental Phoenix is priced around the same at $9,950 USD. The remainder shown in the above screenshot are listed from anywhere between $4,100- $7,500 USD.
UNTAMED is next on our list. Its no surprise to me that BYZANTINE KITTY is at the forefront of the list. If you want to snag one of these for your collection its going to cost you $5,500 USD to do so. The remainder shown in the screen shot range from a price of $2,999 USD - $1,999 USD.
Here is where we see a significant drop in card USD values. The highest costing card in the CHAOS LEGION set is LILY SHELDPAW. You can pick one up for the affordable price of $98.01 USD. The remainder seen in the screen shot can be purchased for $89 USD - $72 USD. Is this opportunity knocking or is CHAOS the set that always will be the more affordable and wallet friendly set (Great for newbies just joining the game).
As shown the screenshots provide price sources for the top six cards as determined by USD. As I predicted (wasn't much of a prediction) the highest listed card for sale in each CORE set was a GFL. Initially I was a little surprised that only one ALPHA GFL made it in the top six of the ALPHA set but upon further investagation; the Frost Giant was/is the only ALPHA GFL listed on the market for sale at current time. As for BETA the top card was the HYDRA which is a highly sought after Legendary Neutral GFL and a great card to have in ones collection (no suprises that it was first on the list). There were also no surprises from the UNTAMED set. KITTY is an awesome card so seeing it at the number one spot in USD value for the UNTAMED NFT Set was expected. HOWEVER, I am surprised that the USD value of CHAOS Legion cards aren't a little higher than displayed. The set is big compared to previous sets but considering (in this post) we are talking Gold Cards there still isn't (IMO) an over abundance of CHAOS LEGION GFL's (GFL supply run from 510-1142 for each card in the CHAOS LEGION SET).

Until the recent arrival of the new Giants from the other side of the world, the Frost Giant thought he was the last of his kind. He has lived longer and seen more than nearly anyone in the Splinterlands, and he is determined to protect the climate of his beloved ΛZMΛRÉ by removing the invading salt with his own frosty hands.
