"We just had the cynicism cycle, that's why everything went to zero and crypto isn't taken serious anymore"

"So what should we do about it?" "Maybe launch some more grifter garbage, jerk each other off on the timeline and ruin the space some more?"

This space deserves zero

I don’t know who wants to hear this, but looking at prices, graphs, rainbows, previous halvings etc is all, very obviously, astrology for men

Ultimately it all comes down to macro and belief

Markets on everything.

We’re proud to announce that $ICE, the owner of @NYSE and the largest exchange company in the world, is making a strategic investment of $2 billion into Polymarket, valuing us at $9 billion post-money.

Our partnership with ICE marks a major step in bringing prediction markets into the financial mainstream. But in addition to that, it’s a monumental step forward for DeFi. ICE is the one remaining founder-led exchange company, and Jeff is all-in on utilizing his assets, including NYSE, to usher in a new financial era of tokenization. We’re humbled to be working together on this endeavor. ICE will also begin distributing Polymarket data to thousands of financial institutions around the world. There is so much to build when you combine the force of ICE’s institutional scale and credibility with Polymarket’s consumer + cultural savvy and distribution.

The past two years have been surreal. Going from a write off to creating a category, watching our vision become a reality. The Polymarket origin story is funny because it's a rare case of the dream being identical to how things played out. If I learned one thing, it’s that bold ideas are everywhere, hidden in plain sight. It just takes someone crazy enough to spend their life willing it into existence. That’s entrepreneurship: willing things into existence.

I remember reading Robin Hanson’s literature on prediction markets and thinking - man, this is too good of an idea to just exist in whitepapers. There were a million reasons why it shouldn’t work, countless arguments of why not to do it, and the odds were against us, but we had to try.

At the onset of the pandemic, I quite literally had nothing to lose: 21, running out of money, 2.5 years since I dropped out and nothing to show for it. But I knew we were entering an era where ways to find truth would matter more than ever, and Polymarket could play a critical role in that. After all, nothing is more valuable than the truth. It’s still a work in progress, but we’re honored to have made the impact we have thus far.

I’d also like to give a special thank you to all of our users, builders, and community members who have been with us since 2020. Your support will not be forgotten 🔮

Last but not least, I am deeply grateful for all of the support and hard work of my brilliant team. I’m getting to live my wildest dreams, seemingly against all odds, and I don’t take it for granted.

The best is yet to come… 🇺🇸

Que Sera Sera

Can confirm that you don’t even have to be a “hot” SV startup, pretty standard to impose secondary sales restrictions as a private company. Good luck becoming Wintermute shareholder without my approval.

[Collins Belton @collins_belton]

Had been curious about whether HOOD, xStocks, et al had navigated contractual secondary restrictions that really "hot" SV startups typically impose in later stages, and from today's reaction to this, feels like a lot of people may not understand how these work. Some examples:
