We're Giving Away A $35,000 Video You Can Find All Over The Internet: Here's Why

We're Giving Away A $35,000 Video You Can Find All Over The Internet: Here's Why
In this post

On January 15, 2021, Lucky Trader co-founder Jonathan Bales published a blog post entitled, "I Spent $35,000 on a Video You Can Find All Over The Internet: Here's Why." To many, the insides ranged beyond the absurdity of the title. Digital art? Thousands of dollars for NBA highlights? 

What kind of lunatic would do something like this? 

 

Fast forward one year. 

The record setting Top Shot purchase has been squashed by many orders of magnitude

The $35,000 Bales and company spent on the Ja Morant Cosmic is no longer the top sale for a Ja Morant Cosmic.

And Top Shot now boasts more than one million users and nearly $1B in platform trading volume all-time. 

To celebrate the tremendous growth and the one-year anniversary of the post that helped introduce Top Shot and NFTs to so many, Jonathan Bales has asked Lucky Trader to give away a $35,000 LeBron James NBA Top Shot Moment* to one lucky individual. You can view the Moment purchased by Bales here.

The giveaway entry period will run from 2:30 p.m. ET Jan. 14 to 6:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Jan. 18. A winner for the LeBron James Legendary Moment will be selected live on the Lucky Trader YouTube during the Club Top Shot One Year Anniversary Stream that starts 9:00 p.m. ET on Jan. 18.
