    Do those trading cards still have any value (a few cents are ok) and are people really buying those? I never noticed that you could sell them. I do nothing with them. And having a very small “discount” on my next game would probably be worth more for me than some NFT like things that collect the digital equivalent of dust in my account.

      Yes, they do, a few cents. It’s a pain to sell them, since you seemingly have to do it one at a time. But some of them are even like 1$/€ so those are worth it

        Just checked - I got over two hundred trading cards. On one hand, that’s a pita to sell individually, on the other hand that’s probably a free game in the next sale…

        But I can do it over time and sell them bit by bit, no hurry…

          I haven’t checked in a while, but IIRC, there are scripts that can quickly sell your cards without you having to do it manually.

            That’d be cool if so!
