Series 5 - 4x 1 full Bitcoins still unredeemed, but how close are we REALLY to the end of this series?

We are 10 months into Series 5 and still only 1 of 5 full Bitcoins have been redeemed according to the BTC tracker on https://cardsmiths.com but I wonder how close this series really is to being sold out, so here is some pure speculation of numbers on my part.

Cardsmiths' parent company is Toynk and according to their b2b website, here is their current inventory of Series 5.

  • 950 Collector Box Mastercases
  • 360 Mega Box Mastercases

This adds up to 801,600 cards left in their inventory. According to our print run speculations, this means they only have ~9.74% of the series left in stock, even though 4 Bitcoins have yet still to be found. Now this is assuming they list all their remaining inventory on their b2b site and also we can't forget a lot of their wholesalers have stock too, so this percentage could easily be doubled. Other factors to consider is how many Onyx have been found so far, which has typically been a good indicator for past series. If you check on CollectShareTrade's Onyx tracker, only 12% of S5 Onyx have been found/uploaded but is this metric still a reliable one? With the product now being sold through many new vendors and other people opening that may not be sharing? Although this would lineup more with there only being 1 Bitcoin found so far but big redemptions waiting until the end of the series to be found has happened before. We saw this happen, even as far back in Series 1.

As of now, Series 6 is set to release next month on 9/4/26 (assuming that date isn't pushed) with only 90 collectors cards verse S5's 120. Nonetheless, it wouldn't surprise if we see a "low inventory" post not long from now from Cardsmiths, as they have done towards the end of past series.

PSA grading prices @ The National 2026. I thought for sure these were fake numbers but they’re not, talk about out of control… 😳

The idea of getting grading done in person has always appealed to me, but not at these prices!! That’s just wild, charging that much. Say it with me, TAG is the way 😅
