Lionel Messi

2026 FIFA World Cup · #254 · Base · Raw

Wins the World Cup Silver Boot after eight goals and four assists

Messi’s sixth World Cup ended with another final, eight goals and four assists. Panini’s card makes the award explicit, but the release is still open: final supply and exact completed sales are unknown, so ICX publishes a provisional range rather than a fixed score or price conclusion.

0.25A + 0.40M + 0.20S + 0.15L = 57–92

Evidence that does not exist yet is not scored as zero. Each pending component stays open from 0 to 100, with no invented midpoint; that is why we publish a range. It is a collectible-strength range, not a price or return forecast.

EXACT-SUPPLY SENSITIVITY
N = 10073–88N = 1,00070–85N = 10,00066–81N = 100,00063–78

Each row recalculates the same formula. If L is also pending, the row remains a range.

LIQUIDITY SENSITIVITY
L = 057–77L = 5065–85L = 10072–92

L = 0, 50 and 100 are mechanical sensitivity points, not probabilities. Exact sales and supply will determine the observed input.
