Deadstock and JTCC Enter Exclusive Tokenization Partnership to Build the Liquidity Layer for Trading Cards
The partnership powers Deadstock, ATH Labs' first product, with verified PSA 10 grails ahead of the closed beta launch coming soon.
ABU DHABI, UAE, June 12, 2026 — Deadstock, an onchain repack platform, today announced an exclusive tokenization partnership with Japan Trading Card Center (JTCC), one of Japan's leading trading card businesses, to bring liquidity to the extensive supply of verified trading cards. The partnership precedes the launch of Deadstock's closed beta, with the waitlist already live: https://deadstock.gg/
Under the partnership, Deadstock gains access to JTCC's sourcing and operational infrastructure to support onchain tokenization. The collaboration gives Deadstock access to a large, continuously replenished supply of verified trading cards, forming the foundation for deep liquidity across its tokenized collectibles platform.
Every card entering Deadstock moves through a standardized pipeline: procurement, grading, vaulting, and 1:1 tokenization, so each onchain asset is backed by a verified physical card from day one.
Deadstock's closed beta will go live on Arbitrum and focus on grails, the most sought-after graded Pokémon cards in the category, with the product built as open infrastructure that retail collectors and institutional participants can both plug into.
"Through this partnership, we are bringing the value of physical cards into a new global, onchain market while preserving authenticity at every step," said Toshihiro Oyama, CEO of JTCC.
"Access to JTCC's supply, one of world's largest liquidity streams in the trading card space, gives Deadstock an unfair advantage most platforms can never reach: deep, continuously replenished real-world inventory at scale," said Dominic Jang, Co-Founder & CSO at Deadstock and ATH Labs, the development company behind Deadstock. "It is the foundation we are building on: a system where pricing, liquidity, and ownership are all grounded in real supply, which is crucial for tokenized RWA markets."
Deadstock's closed beta is opening to early users in the coming weeks. The waitlist is now live: https://deadstock.gg/
