Problem
Mainstream assets like stocks, bonds, and real property tend to trade in efficient market. It’s hard to find an edge when others have the same access and information.

Predictions
Alternative Assets will become easier to access. We have access to additional assets through Vinovest (wine), Otis and Masterworks.
Transaction costs will decrease. Swapd marketplaces save time and sometimes broker fee by moving deals from DMs onto public listings. Fractional ownership platforms sidestep 25% premiums from auction houses like Sotheby’s.
Alt prices will be more controlled by influencers. Logan Paul and Pokemon. Gary V and Sports Cards. Jack Dorsey & Bitcoin. Like Binance, Buffett also increases prices.
Opportunities
Find your niche. Peter is particularly interested in expired domain names. Mushfiq turns websites. Jeremiah invests in themed Instagram accounts. Ace purchases music royalties.
Monetizing insights can help you sell picks and shovels. You can see Traffic Advantage, Website Flipping Newsletter and Watch Newsletter.
Create a Micro-SaaS to find and value other assets. Tensor Social allows you to identify authentic engagement and Instagram accounts of your audience using Tensor Social.
Look for arbitrage opportunities. If a watch sells for $3,000 on StockX and $3,500 on Chrono24, there’s a spread to be made.

Key Lessons
Alternative Assets, as with everything else, are being dedemocratized. See code vs no-Code, newspapers vs newsletters, IPOs vs ICOs.
Most alts’ value is dependent on culture and not cash flow.
“Alternative” It is a relative term. Crypto is becoming a less attractive alternative asset. However, vaults and synthetics remain far away from mainstream.
Haters
“You still haven’t defined an alternative asset.”
It’s easier to define what it’s not. An alt isn’t easily accessible (stocks), easy to understand (residential property) or mainstream. These can be difficult to access (Birkin bag), understand (synthetics), liquid (vintage cars), new (NFTs) and are often illiquid.
“All of these assets are liquid.”
Be cautious with absolutes. Liquidity to me means you can buy and sell quickly without having to take a 30% discount in fair market value. Sure, fire sales do happen.
“Non-cash-flowing assets can be a great store of value.”
This is stability. That is a guarantee.
“It’s against many terms and conditions to sell social media accounts.”
Both big and small players can wrap an account into an entity and then sell the business. The account is not the most important.
“Facebook, Instagram and Spotify? What about platform risk?”
Consider platform risk when determining your price
“Influencers affecting prices is immoral and illegal.”
Maybe. Perhaps not. It’s also inevitable and hard to control. “Social investing” Platforms like Public, Robinhood, and Twitter have us in the age shilling.
“Is this financial advice?”
No.
“Alternative asset classes are missing.”
