@321Converge #3 The prediction market landscape fractures
It’s no longer just @Polymarket vs @Kalshi. @opinionlabsxyz has already flipped Polymarket on volume (likely driven by incentives & farmers)
Robinhood has also entered the game and will immediately become a category leader
12/ All of the above is facilitating the convergence of Web2 and Web3 at blinding speed.

3/ However, web3 is the inverse and entering the fat app phase
With overbuilt infra (e.g. L1/L2s, DA, etc.), blockspace is now abundant & cheap
It's time for a new gen of web3 apps - this time let's follow the mullet approach (i.e. web2 UI/UX on the front, web3 on the backend)
Big tech failed at building the personal health record — humans won’t upload manually, regulators won’t trust companies, & enterprises won’t share
Cryptography is the only viable path that makes this possible now. Who's building a patient-owned health record on @OpacityNetwork?
1/ This @money2020 Web3 was a main topic. Because blockchain is disrupting traditional finance rails. We wrote all about it in the latest edition of our newsletter
5/ The Token Revolution is happening right before our eyes. Tokens underpin the future of AI, payments, crypto, identity, and more

Technologies like zero-knowledge proofs, verifiable credentials, multi-party computation, and fully homomorphic encryption are "truly extraordinary," @neha said at the DC Privacy Summit. "But we need to be precise about what they can and can't do."
Our Co-Founder and Managing Partner @adam_winnick joins the stage at @money2020 today to discuss how internet business models are evolving through identity ownership. If you’re in Vegas, be sure to stop by his panel at 2:10PM PT.

6/ Every cycle, control gets rebranded as innovation, but open, permissionless systems are the right way to architect the internet.

1/ ICYMI: We’re just returned from Singapore 🇸🇬 for #Token2049, where Web3, AI, and open networks collide.
October’s newsletter explored the battle between corporate control and permissionless innovation 🧵
5/ AI’s next monopoly won’t purely be on the model layer. It’s about data lock-in.
Open protocols like Anthropic’s MCP help, but real user ownership comes from Web3: verifiable trust, enforceable permissions, and tokenized incentives.
