Predictions = Next Big Social Thing? π
The path of least resistance was just opened up by Trust Wallet by natively integrating prediction markets inside the wallet itself.
In my loooong experience in the space, the fastest teams to ship often keep the influx of users.
Trust Wallet opened up access to a lot of ecosystems, and now they're integrating 3 leading prediction markets with MYRIAD, Polymarket and Kalshi
This sets up the perfect formula for capturing new users by having easy access to blockchains + seamless UX + the hottest mechanism for onboarding users.

Two transactions of 1,000 BTC each were made from these legendary physical bitcoins
Casascius Coins are physical collectibles created back in 2011 - real metal coins with a hologram hiding a private key
To access the BTC inside, the owner must peel off the hologram, revealing the key and making the coin just a piece of metal while the BTC moves on-chain
There are only 17 known holders, controlling around 36,467 BTC still sealed inside these coins.

From +2600% to -86%: the βhottestβ crypto-treasury trade has blown up.
Companies that stuffed their balance sheets with BTC and ETH massively outperformed at the startβ¦ and then saw their stocks crater as the market realized the business itself wasnβt generating real cash flow.
On average, these βdigital asset treasuriesβ are down ~43% this year, with some names nuked more than 99% despite still holding valuable tokens.
Investors have shifted from βnumber go upβ to βshow me the earningsβ: token bags donβt pay coupons or dividends, while the debt and preferreds issued to finance those bags still need servicing.
Lesson for the next cycle: holding volatile assets on corporate balance sheets is leverage on the way up β and a brutal mismatch between hard liabilities and speculative treasury assets on the way down.
