Does it pass your "eye test?" Artist Does the artist have a following? Do they engage with their community? Is the artist charismatic or captivating in some other way? Does the artist thoughtfully release pieces so as to not dilute early collectors? Holders Are there influential collectors / artists / investors or others who own this collection and hold it in high esteem? Sentiment What did people (in particular the influential holders) say about the collection before it launched? Immediately afterwards? Over time? Collection breadth Does the collection feel cohesive together? Do pieces feel unique yet still connected to the collection as a whole? Historic significance (or potential for historic significance) Is this collection historic in some way (e.g. started a new trend) or does it have the potential to do so? Price action Have floor and sales prices risen over time (ignoring the general volatility of the market)? Has volume decreased (indicating pieces finding their way to long-term holders)?
