I’m doing more normie interviews (e.g. ABC, Bloomberg, etc.) now and I’m trying to get non-crypto people excited about crypto apps they might be using in the next 2-5 years. 

Obvious ones I use are stablecoins, NFTs for tickets, opening up gaming economies. 

But what are some others I should be highlighting?

What benefit is there to a crypto betting platform like Polymarket vs a web2 betting platform like DraftKings? Why should normies be excited by it?

Draftkings is not a market, you're betting against the house as opposed to p2p. Tom wrote a thread this morning about why prediction markets are more than just gambling that I thought was v good

if i'm a public figure, i'm going to start a prediction marketing about whether i will get fired by Aug 1, and then make a huge bet and have my manager fire me and secretly split the profits

and then everyone who lost can argue that i'm only technically "on unpaid leave" and not actually fired yet
