All true: 1) Prediction markets give us more truth 2) Gambling can be bad. Addiction, chasing short term, etc 3) Sports betting is not why we are here, but PMs offer a 10x better experience than the binary win/loss betting that sportsbooks offer 4) Gambling can be good.

Beeple's dogs are pooping between $17.5K - $30K worth of art. He's giving away 256 free NFTs at Art Basel. So far, 115 out of 256 have been distributed. 3 of them have sold on secondary for 10 ETH, 9.69 ETH and 5.76 WETH ($30K, $29K, $17.5K respectively). Incredible tech.

Talked prediction markets, @Polymarket, and why this space is finally having its moment with @mariogabriele. Had to come out of podcast retirement for this!

Prediction markets are positive sum for the next 10 years. Polymarket. Robinhood. Coinbase. Kalshi. Underdog. DraftKings. FanDuel. Fanatics. Many more coming. People love to build up the rivalry and competition. But there’s plenty of room for many who do great work to win.

Polymarket is one of the most viewed websites in the world. 15.8m visits in October, up 80% from August. Coinbase website traffic was down over same period. The craziest thing about Polymarket brand recognition is that the exchange is still not live for Americans to trade.

The @Polymarket team once again shows just how fast we can move. A huge thank you to the leadership at the @CFTC and the Staff for working so hard to get this done. Regulator engagement is a win for America
We’re thrilled to share that we've received CFTC approval for intermediation, paving the way for seamless access to polymarkets through registered brokers & financial institutions. Coming soon to a trading platform near you.
