So the French Polymarket guy woke up $80m richer today by simply betting that polls were wrong yet again, just like they were in 2016 and 2020. “The simplest outcome is always the most likely.” [image]

$DJT ended up down about 1%. I would HIGHLY caution against reading much into that, in terms of the election. The drop earlier didn't seem to be associated with any news, or anything on Polymarket. Best as I can figure, the NPV of all future DJT free cash flows fell about 1%

Today was an excellent validation of prediction markets like @Polymarket where markets provide a superior source of information compared to legacy media Question is now, after the election, will these markets still see meaningful volume/usage? Or do we wait for the next election

Really cool thing to track: of the 8 new Senators who were elected last night (and there's still races left to call), @standwithcrypto tracks 7 them as being pro-crypto. That's 88% of the new members of the body (and should be a few more added soon). Sea change in the Senate.
