Is Capsule Investing Worth It?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- The CS:GO Blast Paris Major has had some of the biggest impacts on the sticker market in the past few months. From crashing Stockholm and Antwerp stickers by more than 50% to Paris stickers maintaining some of the highest sticker prices we have ever seen. But throughout all the chaos, will the Paris sticker capsules provide enough profit to be justified over other investments on the steam market? With more streamers and RUclipsrs such as Anomaly, Ohnepixel, Sparkles and Heyzeus talking about these capsules and stickers, it is making people question if the capsules will be a smart purchase.

4:30 what are those Faze stickers? there are no Faze katowice 2014 stickers, what am I looking at???

lettttts go ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘
I think it would be good for everyone, even for Valve, if they made next Major stickers with borders but otherwise good looking.
I think if they do borderless stickers again, it's going to have long-term consequences on the market. People won't trust Valve again with their money. We will never see investor confidence like Paris ever again.
I feel Valve might try and show off CS2's lighting etc with borders in Copenhagen
@@olafgustav6810 If they make the bordered stickers look good for once then everyone would be happy.
@@cstrends Would be also cool if they made different borders for every team.
@@cstrends fingers crossed
People don't get that the capsules are gonna be overshadowed by cs2's first major. The stickers might not be but only if the cs2 major isn't borderless. It's a gamble
That's the issue with this investment, it's got risk involved that other majors didn't have. Valve will have the opportunity to make the most money from a sticker collection ever from CS2's first major so making them borderless would be an obvious decision.
no major until 2024 and a borderless design gives me hope that Paris capsules will at least go above sale price by the time the next major gets here.
Invest on the last CSGO major and invest on the first CS 2 Major
Problem solved
Next major is in 8 months so u can ez doube or tripple ur money in that time

So who won previous giveaway for AWP Mortis??
jim_halpert won it.
@@cstrendsis that his youtube or steam name?
@@DUNDOM5 That's his RUclips, I'm currently sending him a VP holo to compensate because the mortis is on cooldown, then I'll send the AWP to him tomorrow.
@@cstrendsthere is no jim halpert comment on previous video
@@DUNDOM5Strange, found the comment and I was able to find his Twitter. If people are worried about it I can redo the giveaway, how does that sound?
Banger. For the community's maintained interest and safe investing I sure do hope the PGL 2024 Major stickers are bordered in a good looking way..more like Cologne 2016 and Boston 2018 and not Rio 2022
They definitely need to implement better bordered stickers, Rio was just such a bad way to implement them.
I want dreamhack 2014 back, those are my most favorite stickers and they are super unique
@@runek100 agreed Dreamhack 2014 is the best stickers
@@GalihPratama-ky3ox yeah and now after update looking insane again. I made whole loadout with dreamhack crafts.
Are you planning to show your Paris investments in the future?
If people want me to show them then sure. I haven’t really talked about my own inventory before so if that’s something people want to see then I’ll do it.
I got bored while reading comments... This is Antwerp 2.0 . Everyone is telling supply will be high , it will give profit in long term bla bla ... They underestimate the roi , cs2 hype and the gap between pgl and paris.
The gap between pgl and paris is somewhat its downfall. These stickers will not see the 10-20x we saw from Antwerp and Stockholm until we see what the Copenhagen stickers look like. People still have some doubt in their head as to what the next stickers will look like and if it's even worth paying for a sticker that's $100+ with the current state of sticker investing.
In which Paris stickers would you invest induvidually?
I personally have a lot of OG, Fnatic and Grayhound holos. I also have a few Sk0r holos. If I were you, I'd keep an eye on all the contender autograph stickers. The capsule listings for the contenders autograph capsule on the steam market is low and applied numbers indicate that it will be underinvested. So I'd recommend getting any contenders holo autograph stickers that you think look good.
Congratulations! you won the give away feel free to add my account on steam and I'll send you the M4A1-S Control Panel steamcommunity.com/id/Lotaze/
My guess is that this major is over invested by everyone, however judging by the amount of capsules being opened from antwerp and stockholm even with the price of the capsules being so high could show even higher returns for paris. but that is a gamble.
Capsules will be over invested, but there aren't enough holo stickers being opened to go around. Inevitably they will all have to increase in price.
Dude, I've watched many CS related videos, but have never seen such crazy good editing. Holy... Insta subbed!
Thanks, good to know you like it. Can't wait to see how CS2 brings new people.
Nice video. I often hear stories of players who quit CSGO putting skins and cases to sleep, but stickers and capsules seem to have more hidden inventory.
Absolutely, capsules are an item that people store away and forget about. Especially with something like Antwerp 2022 capsules where people have thousands lying in storage units.
So which one is better 😅
Buy and hold capsules or open them and hold stikers
Don't open capsules, just buy whatever you want to invest on the steam market. Not worth gambling and getting unlucky.
The upcoming years will show us what we are going to get, for now we can just speculate. Have a good day if anyone is reading this
CS is just going to get bigger, making it harder to invest. Right now we may be in the golden age of csgo investing whereas in 5 years from now getting a 10x returns will be impossible.
yes but when do we buy holo stickers they're so expensive?
Buy a week from now. There's too much hype around Paris due to the Fano situation that's happening. Also, waiting to buy after the sale is a risk since people could pump the stickers even more, also if CS2 goes into open beta then getting these stickers at cheaper prices will never happen.
Yeesssss new vid!!
Hope you like it!
I wonder how much of an effect the lower % chance of holos will have on this majors stickers. Even though the holos now are higher than before the sale, its not only people investing but also maybe people know how much rarer they are now to open.
People undervalued Antwerp holos because some are even rarer than Stockholm. So I think people realized this mistake and are correcting it.
Tbh investing in this paris capsule is a safe bet it’s may not going up much since the sale period is still continuing and the supply is much higher than demand most likely but you’re going to be profitable by small percentage than initial investment.
Absolutely, you'll make profit from Paris capsules no matter what. I don't see why they should be going down in price after they're removed.
great video! all I gotta say is I can't even look at my inventory anymore lately without getting sick about how down everything is and I can't even craft cause the price of the paris holo's are insane and to top it off I have no access to the beta so... I REALLY can't wait for CS2 to drop.
I'm sure the market will correct itself and things will start having an upward trajectory soon. Doesn't make much sense as to why it's going down before CS2, guess people are just getting impatient before the release of the new game. I'm sure Valve will make sure the game is in good hands and release it soon.
i will just open the capsules if stickers perform better
If stickers perform well then capsules should perform just as well since their ROI will increase. If you already have capsules just hold onto them.
Euhm..? High sticker prices increases demand for opening capsules which in turn increases supply of stickers - yes, that's correct! But any increase in supply will be relatively small per capsule opened since the droprates for holos have gone from ~15% in Stockholm to ~3% in Paris. AND ALSO: when the sale is over new capsules won't be able to be generated which means that a higher demand for opening capsules will eat up the supply which inevitably will increase the capsule price.
We do expect profit from capsules, but we're still not sure how long it will take until we see a price increase due to a lot of external factors. The issue is that we're not sure how much the new CS2 hype will play into how well the investment will perform. On top of this, investor fear could get in the way towards the release of the Copenhagen stickers which could stunt price growth of both capsules and stickers. I do agree that things have changed significantly due to the drop rate of holos, but this is a totally different scenario from Stockholm and Antwerp. Overall I do agree with what you're saying, it's just that external factors play a big part in the investment.
Its first time since 2020 I'll not invest in capsules. I think it's not worth it.
I think that hype for Paris capsules/stickers will die with first CS2 Major.
The investment's not as safe as previous majors, but I still think it will succeed with certain items. The autographs are looking to be a good investment, but the capsules might be left in the dust if too many are bought.
@@cstrends autographs are the worst investments out there 😂😂😂
@@vanhanliiton7232 Some of the cheapest autographs from Antwerp 10x easily. Buying lower tier Paris autographs isn't a bad decision.
While everyone is focused on what if with the new sticker capsules, I’ll stick to buy my 2013 cases, 2014 cases, bravo cases, ECT, with supply getting more rare by the day, I will make money off these investments
Focusing on just Paris as an investment isn't a good idea. There are so many other great investments on the market right now so I respect that you're looking at the entire market.
Coppenhagen major foil and holo stickers will definitely gonna be a good a long term investment since it was the first major in CS2
I think if they're unique and look good they'll perform really well. This is because they won't be directly competing with SH, AW and Paris since they look different and they will be undersupplied since casual investors believes bordered stickers don't perform well as investments.
Is it not worth buying capsules at all and just focusing on stickers then? Are you personally invested in any paris capsules?
I’ve got a few OG, Grayhound and Fnatic holos. I’ve also got contender autographs such as Sk0r and v$m. I’d recommend buying lower tier team holos or some contender signature stickers. Explaining why would take me a while but to keep it short contender autographs are looking to be the least invested part of Paris.
Edit is sick
Thank you, glad you liked the editing
Your edit is really good man, you deserve more subs!
Thanks, lots of time to make the edits worthy of viewers.
Another banger of a video, keep it up!
Thank you, glad you liked it 👍
The editing on this video is insane and it's so informative too. Good Job!
Thank you, great to know it was entertaining and helpful 👍
Oh, thats why Paris sticker price is fomo bubbled now? Investors think it is a good investment, forgetting that this blown up prices makes it more risky to invest at all and decrease by a lot the potential to go up in price at all. Thats so funny how manipulative market has gone and fomo investors oversee the purpose of investing: to put money in things that has value.
you gotta go for the long run. We will never reach kato 2014 levels because investing just didn't exist back then, and there were a lot less players. But if you hold these capsules for 10 more years, assuming CS is still around, the profit is sure because the supply will be running out. Buy a few thousand and hold for years.
I do think that if you're in it for the long run I'd invest into Stockholm. The market forum has voted that Stockholm is the 2nd best sticker collection behind Katowice 2014. If there is any collection that will get even close to Kato prices it'd be Stockholm.
@@cstrends Yeah, I agree. I need to buy more of those soon. But it won't harm me to stock up on some Paris as well as long as they are dirt cheap. You can never predict what the market will look like in a few years, something completely random might happen that increases the demand of a specific capsule.
Another BANGER! Great video
Thank you, great to know you enjoyed it 😄
these prices are not normal, especially since we are halfway through the sale and the prices of holo stickers are only increasing, I'm not going to invest 1000$ to buy only 300 cheaper holo stickers at 3$ each , the only option for me is to buy right now glitter stickers, we need valve to release a new case before they release CS2 so that the prices of holo stickers would fall.
I wouldn't recommend buying higher priced holos because they won't have any room to grow in price unlike the lower tier holos so you're right. But I'm not sure if glitters will be a good investment, maybe new CS2 players will want cheaper stickers and look to buy glitters.
And now?
do you outsource editing or do it yourself? its really good
I don’t outsource any of the editing, all done by the two of us that run this channel 😁. Great to know it looks professional 👍
Paris investment is a gamble.
BUT I think holos are crazy inflated and its either the capsule that goes up or holos crash down after sale ends.
I personaly believe that holos will crash down in price after the sale because current demand that is keeping the price high is mostly caused by investors, not users.
After the sale 90% of investors will stop and thus the demand will decrease with stickers prices crashing.
In my opinion the savest investments are the capsules as their addictive nature will cause their stock numbers to decrease.
The best and savest moment to buy is now from the community market
I think the cheaper holos are a fine investment because if they go down by 50 cents they'll probably recover pretty quickly due to crafting demand. Other stickers such as Mouz however have a lot more to lose and are definitely less sustainable. Autograph stickers are also a decent price right now as the ROI for two of the capsules is now close to 60% which is where it should be. Autographs probably have the most room to grow in price after the sale.
@@cstrends I agree
Love your editing laughed multiple times when I should have stayed focus on the info you are providing, I also agree and disagree on this video, finding the right sticker to invest is usually hard and paris stickers are so popular that they are really really high (making the roi so good) right from the beginning where other stickers didn't used to. So or the sticker will go down and settle to a more logic price and slowly grow, or the capsules will go high pretty fast a couple months or more after the paris sale end. Anyway depending on the next sticker as you said, Paris is still one of a banger in terms of stickers and I don't see them do awful even if the futur major have incredible stickers. But afterall this is my opinion, DYOR always
Logically I'd say that the capsules should go up after the sale. CS2 should keep the holo stickers around the price they're at right now, meaning the ROI will force the capsule price to rise. Even though short-term capsules will be a good investment, long-term stickers will be more beneficial due to new players coming from CS2 wanting to make their own unique crafts. The cheaper holos are realistically the best option for an investment since new players probably won't be paying more than $5 per sticker.
Insane amount of time was spent in editing software I bet
My whole life is editing 😅
Bro your editing is crazy! Loved it
Thanks, glad you liked it
Broo i was basically planning to invest alot on paris capsule but your video made me consider investing on stickers!! Imma plan to invest on underrated stickers like fluxo and OG hope they will increase sometime soon! Thanks for the video❤❤
Good idea, very good stickers to pick up. I think you've got a good sense of what stickers to look out for, so keep finding more underrated stickers.
buying stickers because of their borders is based ! the borderless stickers are becoming like the air force 1 of crafts !
You're right, but people still like the borderless design. It has tons of demand but who knows, maybe people will get burnt out.
@@cstrends yea 100%, seeing the same borderless 4x crafts in game becomes a bit dull after some time !
man your videos are top quality, keep it up
Thank you, always wanting to put everything I've got into the videos.
i have like 8 furia holos from these capsules, should I sell 4 of the furia holos now? or better off waiting
It's up to you. If you're willing to hold onto them for the long run for profit then holding them should work out, but short term the Furia holo might be too static. Its price is so high right now that I don't think it'll go up for a while.
bro made me think i was watching anomaly
*anytime its good idea to buy cases/capsules, but never a good time to open them :))*
Can agree, gambling ain't in your favour.
Amazing video !! damn needed someone to just analyze the capsule/sticker market and not just shove buy this buy that for profit !! loved the video !!
Investing is best when you make an educated decision without hand holding, Paris is one of those unpredictable examples we need more data on after the sale.
@@cstrends Hmmm !! Right and its interesting as the borderless stickers of paris as you said adds quite a big factor to consider !!
@@afarmakhmud935 Exactly, we also have the Copenhagen Major coming up in the next few months which is another factor that will determine the long-term success of this invesment.
@@cstrends Yep !! it would actually be my first investing opportunity ! will actually just watch the mayhem unfold XD lol ! would love to see how crazy the stonks go up or down !! haha !
love your editing

Thank you
thanks brother
what is ur opinion
i unboxed some capsules i got 2 mouz holo and 1 g2 holo and 1 navi gold
should i hold or make a sell ?
Hard to say right now, short-term you could take a risk free sell but looking at the data applied rates are low. Normally meaning stickers are rare but a lot of them are being hoarded by investors. Many of them won't be willing to sell especially not until cs2 which will increase the price with extra demand in the market. If your looking for profit I would hold just for the fact that they seem to be rare, especially the mouz holo and its going to get more expensive as the Stockholm versions go up in price. This is more risky but the worst I could see happening is the Paris stickers just stay at a similar current price similar to today. Just a few things to consider but the option is yours I hope this helped.
@@cstrends
im going to hold if
those stickers rise up in price good
finally i will get my first knife after years
@@kinanhawri6906 Hope it all works out for you in the end. Chances are looking likely you’ll see some good profit.
@@cstrends i got
woro2k holo
monte holo
9ine gold
and some glitters g2 pain and A
the thing is that now a lot of people are buying tons of stickers beacuse of what happened before
Got a video coming out real soon that will go over all of the oversupply and insane prices. I also collected a lot of my own data; so make sure you stay on the lookout for my new video. It's going to be a really important one for anyone who invested into Paris.
Despite all of these capsules and shit... Still no cs2 access😭
Same, it's getting annoying since still only 5% of players have CS2.
I think that there is a lot of nice sticker in paris capsules. However they are way to expenssive and overhyped. How capsule opening can have 100% ROI? I believe that capsules are much safer investment ATM. If we will see some decline on holos price I will buy some nice holos
Many autograph holos are at a decent price right now so I'd recommend some of those. In terms of team holos, many are way too overprice like you said. Golds are a good option compared to holos right now since a lot of them are actually cheaper than holos meaning they're not getting pumped.
@@cstrends Thanks for reply. Like you mentioned in your video, I expect that people will start to mass open those capsules at that high ROI and we will have big correction in sticker market. In that case I will most likely buy a lot of stickers
like mouse sticker , looks shitty for me...nothing special
@@lextmb A lot of people dislike it, but those who do will pay ridiculous amounts for it.
Buy on buff for 0.16 each, u welcome
Also buying the holos on buff is a good option
Thanks for advice
No problem 👍
Kato 19 had better returns per capsule dawg.
Kato 19 is completely different, you had holo and foil only team capsules with papers being bought off the store. Glitters and gold team stickers weren't in the capsules. Sure maybe autographs are different but majority of people buy team capsules.
@@cstrends true.
I buyed them from BUFF for 12 cents…. Im in Profit now . I will wart some years now . I have 3k from them . If its Not good invest i dont care
Sounds like you got them for a good price, if your happy holding them you might make some nice profit.
Do NOT buy capsules from the ingame store!!! Always buy from the community market or 3rd party websites. This way the supply will not be inflated and we will make better profits
Exactly, I think this time the community is getting the message since a lot more people are buying discounted capsules from buff now.
Really enjoyed the video! Keep it up
Thank you, great to know you enjoyed the video 👍

V nice vid
Thank you 👍
actually first crazy
Congratz 🎊
Borderless doesnt mean good 100% of the time though
It's a very popular sticker design so it should be a good investment. The only thing that will ruin it is if Valve creates borderless stickers again which is likely.
i guess paris will not go well
I think the holos will be fine, mainly the lower priced ones. They have a lot more room for price growth.
Ngl paris is really good
I like it too. Got some really great crafting potential.
Keep up the good work
