did the new 10 point scale, dubbed NGCX, come about because of Vaultbox?
No, NGC rolled it out to attempt to attract the card collectors.
VaultBox (and a couple of high volume bullion sellers) has been one of the few customers for it. I was going to do a grading set, but the number of non-VaultBox coins is so small as to be impossible.
