Polymarket

Huge win for Polymarket last night!

Information markets are the true leading signal now, not polls.

Started with this election but will be routinely cited for many more events going forward by both legacy and new media.

Building getinboxzero.com and sharemint.xyz.

I also run a YouTube channel, "Learn from Open Source": youtube.com/elie2222 

Yes PMs have been around for a while and yes Polymarket wasn't perfect on the election. It's a market like any other.

But it's hard to deny that they didn't cross over to mainstream folks during this cycle. That's really important and exciting.

Betting markets have existed forever 😂 this isn’t the first election people bet on. And you can’t judge signal by a single event.

I was citing betting odds for Trump in 2016. And it was happening way before that too.

Most people won’t beat the markets but would be silly to say Polymarket predicted this election given it was giving it only 60-40 odds for Trump.
