Baseball cards are valued for being distinct. Bitcoin for being fungible (despite a traceable blockchain history).

Baseball cards are not divisible.

I know of no situation in which collectibles are viable for transaction, but Bitcoin is. (Despite limitations in transaction numbers, speed of confirmation and transaction fees.)

So I don’t think that’s a good comparison.
