Jupiter, a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana, has launched a new digital venue where collectors can buy and trade authenticated, graded physical Pokémon and One Piece trading cards as onchain assets.
Announced Monday via a post on X (formerly Twitter), the initiative—dubbed Jupiter Gacha—allows users to purchase randomized packs containing real, professionally graded collectible cards. Each card is sealed in a tamper-proof plastic slab by a third-party grading service and linked to a unique onchain token on Solana, making it tradable directly through Jupiter’s platform.
"Every pull is an authenticated slab, the same cards you chased as a kid, now tradeable on Jupiter," the exchange stated.
While tokenized physical collectibles are not entirely new—platforms like Collector Crypt and Courtyard already operate in this space—Jupiter’s entry could lend significant credibility to the sector. The DEX recently partnered with Securitize to facilitate the rollout of regulated, fully onchain tokenized equities on Solana, underscoring its growing role in bridging real-world assets with blockchain infrastructure.
Interest in tokenized Pokémon cards surged in May during the franchise’s 30th anniversary celebrations. Industry figures believe such use cases could reignite broader interest in NFTs, which have seen declining engagement since their peak in 2021–2022. OpenSea CMO Adam Hollander recently told The Block that tokenized Pokémon cards might serve as a gateway to renewed NFT adoption.
The move also signals potential expansion into other high-value physical collectibles, including sports cards, luxury watches, and designer goods—all of which could benefit from transparent, liquid onchain markets.
Jupiter Gacha is currently in beta, with full details available on Jupiter’s official channels.
