From the website…. (Not sure how or when they update the “market cap”)
How is the value of one YOYOCOIN determined?
To make this fun, we decided to tie the value of one YOYOCOIN to the price of one Bitcoin. We didn’t want to determine the price ourselves, but rather to have an outside force do the work. Bitcoin seemed like a good way to go. If Bitcoin goes up or down, YOYOCOIN does as well (in a proportional way).
It’s in unrelated now and it’s YoYo adjacent as it is a physical coin made by a YoYo company. I think this thread is valid and if you desire to not see it there is a visibility control at the bottom left.
Sorry for getting off topic with the crypto stuff in general but the OD YoYo’s coin is a neat concept as a collectible. Treated as anything more is a tad absurd but I mean NFTs exist so I guess anything can be a store of value.
I misread this…. When I saw the word dollar, I thought you implied a random figure. My bad.
I think tying it to Bitcoin, something completely out of their control, is the only way to give it true “value”. The only place this value can be realized is when you walk into the store for a visit so I think it’s a fun little game to play. I know I’m hoping to find one in my package some day.
I don’t partake in the crypto game but sometime wish I could ride one of those waves.
