Getting to Know My Father All Over Again

[Shayne Coplan 🦅 @shayne_coplan]

Today is the 6 year anniversary of when I launched Polymarket.

I’m truly grateful to be able to work on something that means so much to me.

It’s been awe-inspiring to see the world catch up with this crazy idea called “information markets”. Yet there still remains a long ways to go

For those curious about my headspace when starting the company, this thread is a nostalgic artifact.

@joshhart Dude sucks. Wake up and wipe the crust out of your eyes.

[Polymarket @Polymarket]

Against all odds.

Polymarket’s U.S app is now being rolled out to those on the waitlist.

We’re launching with sports — followed by markets on everything.

@yrechtman Sent you a DM, I would like to get involved

[Shervin @shervin]

Half day Thanksgiving brainstorm with the brilliant @shayne_coplan founder and CEO of @Polymarket at their offices. The truth finally has a business model. Going to call it: Shayne and Polymarket will be a decacorn within 24 months. 30 person team, global reach, impact and brand all helped by a super visionary founder. Shout out to my daughter @DPishevar for connecting us years ago.

The biggest mistake I see people make about friendships is that they will just happen. That’s like saying health will just happen.

The more you dial up your intentionality as a friend, the more you will dial up the quality of every other part of your life.

Definitely a lot of advantages, it is fascinating though, many of these endowments will look towards the ones of notoriety IE Yale, Stanford, Harvard etc.

Wanting to replicate, and dismissing portfolio construction. If you have more funds, it looks different. If you have exposure, it’s different. It’s all multi variant. Always look to copy the best, but fine tune to & adjust to fit your scope + thesis.

Way to go Shayne and Polymarket team 💪

[Shayne Coplan 🦅 @shayne_coplan]

The Bloomberg Terminal has now integrated Polymarket.

Entering mainstream news and finance before our eyes.

What once was a fringe, sci-fi idea for transforming the flow of information is now becoming the new normal, as 10s of millions of people build habit around relying on Polymarket forecasts as a source of truth, to make sense of what’s going on in the world.

And it’s still early.
