From Elections to the World Cup, Why Have Prediction Markets Suddenly Hooked Young People Around the World?

Prediction markets have a natural advantage in attracting users: they trade not in unfamiliar financial codes, but in things everyone discusses every day.
People who like football can follow match results; those interested in macroeconomics can study the odds of interest rate cuts; tech enthusiasts can track AI and new product launches; and political news fans can find events they care about.
This means prediction markets naturally attract users from across different circles.

AI Bubble or Supercycle? This Time, the Smartest Investors Are Starting to Watch Cash Flow!

Every time a new technology takes off, the market goes through a familiar process.
Stage one: Everyone believes the future is limitless.
Stage two: Capital pours in, and valuations keep climbing.
Stage three: Investors suddenly realize that while the technology is cutting-edge, so are the bills.

People said crypto would moon in 2026.
Here’s the 1 year reality check from 11 Nov 2025 → 11 Nov 2026 that almost no one is posting:

The AI, RWA, and high-throughput narratives that were supposed to deliver the 2026 breakout have not.
Leverage is gone, weak hands are gone, and the timelines that called for a moon are

I never imagined that Japan still preserves an intact portrait of Zhu Shunsui
Meanwhile, here in China, Zhu Shunsui was actually given a queue hairstyle
Zhu Shunsui (1600–1682) was a scholar and anti-Qing loyalist during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. His name was Zhiyu, his courtesy name was Luyu, and his art name was Shunshui. He was from Yuyao, Zhejiang.
After the Ming dynasty fell, he refused to submit to the Qing. He traveled to Japan, Vietnam, and elsewhere, seeking opportunities to resist the Qing and restore the Ming

What Will Truly Be Valuable in the Future Is Not the Most Powerful Model, but the Most Profitable AI Company

The AI industry is undergoing an important shift.
In the past, people debated whose model was the smartest, who could top the leaderboards, and whose models had more parameters.
Now, more and more investors are starting to focus on another question: Who can truly turn AI into a profitable business?
OpenAI's revenue growth and expanding enterprise business show that AI commercialization is accelerating. At the same time, costs for computing power, energy, R&D, and infrastructure are tes

Strategy Buys 1,036 BTC, Repurchases $188M STRC Preferred
Strategy's latest capital-allocation update brings two transactions that pull in different directions. In a November 9 filing, the company announced it acquired 1,036 additional Bitcoin and repurchased approximately $188 million of STRC preferred shares. The first deepens its Bitcoin exposure; the second reduces outstanding securities within its broader financing structure.

Is $1.4 trillion too expensive? Anthropic's IPO is putting the entire AI market's intelligence to the test!

Is a $1.4 trillion valuation for an AI company too high?
Anthropic has posed an exceptionally difficult question to the market.
Supporters believe AI will reshape global software, enterprise services, and productivity markets, with future potential that may far exceed that of the traditional internet.
Skeptics argue that model competition is fierce, computing costs are enormous, and technological advantages may not last.
Based on public reports, Anthropic's revenue run rate is already s

"Solo founder, product is done. What should I focus on now?"
A founder on r/SaaS spent a year building a B2B tool for small service businesses. It finally works.
Where they're at: some inactive users, no paying customers yet. And building solo got lonely.
139 comments later, it's clear how many founders are in the same spot.
I've been this founder. I shipped the first version of VoiceMoat and waited for people to find it. They didn't.
Here's the part nobody tells you in year one: building and being known are two different jobs. And the second one doesn't start on launch day.
They asked what to

Stablecoins look like digital dollars, but why aren’t they the same as dollars in a bank?

In the cryptocurrency market, stablecoins are often used for trade settlement, asset holding, and on-chain payments. Many people believe that as long as a token’s price stays close to $1 over time, it can be treated as cash.

But a similar price does not mean the risks are the same.

I. Why can stablecoins maintain price stability?

Different stablecoins rely on different mechanisms to maintain their prices. Three common types are:

1. Fiat-backed

Applause for all the guys whose accounts were banned—you made an indelible contribution to Anthropic’s push for a trillion-dollar IPO. 🫡
There’s a dark joke hidden in Anthropic’s recently published prospectus:
In the first three quarters of this year, 5% - 7% of its revenue (about $1.65 billion to $2.31 billion) came from customers who paid and were then “deemed to have violated the rules” and banned.
And speaking of bans, how much of that “hard-earned money” came from users in China buying Pro/Max subscriptions and topping up API credits? We all know.
Nothing beats this ultimate business loo

Why Can a Strategy Perform Well in Backtests Yet Continuously Lose Money in Live Trading?

A trading strategy may have a high win rate in backtests, a consistently rising equity curve, and a seemingly acceptable maximum drawdown.

But once it is put into the market, the results can be completely different: trading costs keep adding up, actual execution prices deviate from expectations, and several trades in a row lose money. The once-impressive equity curve gradually loses credibility.

Where exactly does the problem lie?

Backtesting evaluates a strategy’s performance under specific historica

What is the difference between isolated and cross margin? Which margin mode is better for controlling risk?

In crypto futures trading, isolated and cross margin are two common margin modes. Many traders focus only on leverage while overlooking how margin mode affects account risk. Even with the same leverage, different margin modes can lead to completely different risk exposures.

The core of isolated margin is to manage the margin for a particular position relatively independently. When that position incurs losses, the risk is usually concentrated mainly within the margin allocated to it. Tr

Why Can Users Still Lose Money When Smart Contracts Execute as Coded?

In the Web3 world, smart contracts are often seen as infrastructure that is automated, transparent, and does not require trusted intermediaries.

But there is an easily overlooked issue:

Code executing according to the rules does not mean the outcome will match your expectations.

Understanding the difference between these two is an important step in assessing the risks of DeFi, NFTs, and other on-chain applications.

I. Smart Contracts Guarantee Rule Execution, Not Investment Outcomes

Smart contracts can perform operatio

Has the next major Crypto sector already emerged? Prediction markets may be bigger than you think!

If the previous Crypto cycle was centered on trading assets, the next one may be about trading events.
This change sounds small, but the market opportunity behind it is entirely different.
There is only one Bitcoin, and the number of major tokens is limited. But the real world produces new events every day: policy changes, corporate decisions, sporting events, technological breakthroughs, economic data, and international developments.
As long as an event has a clear outcome, it can generate dema

When you buy an NFT, what do you actually own? The image, the copyright, or a record on the blockchain?

Many people encountering NFTs for the first time think of them as digital images that can be bought, collected, and resold.

But the core value of an NFT is not just the image itself. It lies in using the blockchain to record the ownership and transfer of a specific token. The key question is: What rights do you actually acquire when you buy an NFT?

I. Owning an NFT does not mean owning the copyright to the work

Buying an NFT usually means you gain control of that token on the correspondi
