Crazy how fast the polymarket narrative will change after the election is over. Heralded for crypto consumer progress, torn down in a couple of weeks. Prediction markets largely only have PMF with US elections it seems

they'll still be at a much higher monthly volume after the election and the market for gambling/speculation is still growing quite a bit. they'll be a big reduction but this user behavior is here to stay imo. https://dune.com/rchen8/polymarket

prediction markets feel largely like an ‘intellectuals’ speculation preference politics are one of the only intellectuals context that almost everyone cares about am struggling to see how they retain pmf (until financialized internet is standard practice)

aside from sports betting, maybe we can switch to gambling about the weather: "wen first snowfall in NYC this winter?" "how much rain in Florida in Jan?" which ultimately leads to betting on the orange/corn crop in 2027...
