this video was a battle in the best way.

[Zeke Spector @slop_pig]

This was the most difficult video I've made. And I've made hundreds of them. And I've been teargassed.

[Soon @soontechnology]

Our very own @slop_pig tackled the dumbest and most difficult prediction market strategy imaginable: betting on every Kalshi market closing within 24 hours, fueled by coffee and coding agent credits.

See how that went in our latest video.
