Today was my last day at Polymarket. In my short time there I was responsible for literally doubling volume through the protocol, and for creating multiple Dune dashboards used to close our recent $2B raise. Excited for my new role at Tempo

I've been asked: what do I think of @Kalshi & @Polymarket? These are still very early days. My vision, which I started to articulate ~1990, is of a world very different from both the world of then, and the world of today. A world where markets are accepted as offering more

Stop saying Chat Control “passed.” It didn’t. It’s not law. We can still stop it. Wording it like that kills momentum and makes people think the fight is over. If you actually want to help: go to https://t.co/w2GO9SjWma and contact your MEPs now.

The fact that we were restricted in how we operated while you + gensler weaponized the government against us simply proves the chilling effect that a weaponized agency can have It’s not evidence of anything else Fuck you for thousands of wasted hours of my life
@milesjennings 1st, lame not to @ me 2nd, there’s a reason Uni decided to launch the fee switch now. “Less regulatory hostility” means “yes this clearly was illegal back before crypto purchased the WH” 3rd, call is coming from inside the house; I’m paraphrasing the original defi post QT’d

A father and son build an AI agent. The father tweets that they have $10M ARR and the son is rushed to San Francisco to pitch the seed round. At the pitch the VC looks at the boy and says "I can't fund this boy, he is my son." How can this be?

nice article from @joel_john95 and @Decentralisedco on the value of prediction markets in making the web more fun and providing content creators a better path from attention -> transaction building prediction markets that let creators ask more engaging questions is what we
Prediction markets, stablecoins and agentic finance will blend to change how the web monetises itself. My latest, is an exploration of how these markets will change the unit economics of content platforms and the primitives that will power the shift. Link below.

Every so often I'm reminded how great Foundry is to work with. I'm building something on top of @Polymarket and I need to go direct to the Conditional Tokens they use for events, so I need to deploy on Polygon. When trying to deploy to testnet I was reminded that Polygon (PoS

We (finally) opened up the contracts repo for @onit_fun. Many PMs work as order books but Onit is an AMM, and it implements a market mechanism that hadn't been tried before. The release here is a beta (not deployed yet and will change before then) for v0.0.4. Might work on
