we're in 2026 and sports bettors are still obsessed with classifying Prediction Markets as gambling, or at least in the same breath as casinos.
But for someone who has used Prediction Markets ( I mean genuinely with research) he won't ever say such Bs.
A regular person can make money on prediction markets if they find a niche, do actual work, and stay disciplined.
The distinction between casinos/sportsbooks and a prediction market is a large one and the incentives that drive each business are fundamentally different.
One thing to note is that the relationship between a sportsbook/casino is predatory and given that it is predatory, then users/customers are literally the prey and these companies have optimized to take as little risk as possible.
In other words, they want easy prey. Easy prey which does as much gambling as possible, and as little work as possible. (and as a result permit them to extract as much as possible from these ''preys'').
someone who is smart and hard working and finding a niche is totally anathema to them, we can agree to this yea ?
Worst part is, if they find you are a profitable bettor, they'll do every thing possible to bring you down and ban your ãss.
On prediction markets, a user has far, far, far more CONTROL.
The user can deposit what they want, deposit when they want, bet on what they want, bet when they want, bet the amount they want, choose the price they want to buy at, choose to be a maker or a taker, choose when and where to sell. And, if you are a user, and you spend hours looking at every single market and can't find anything interesting, you can literally ask them for a new market on something you do want ( I have already tried it with some Prediction Markets but i'll keep their names, don't want to do publicity).
Overall Prediction markets give the user control, whereas sportsbooks and casinos offer up the illusion of control.
free market where users have control is absolutely morally superior to an adversarial company that preys on its customers.
prediction markets are more fair and user-empowering than traditional gambling, but yea fees exist and most casual users still lose money.
but the differential in morality between the two types of business is not close.
Even Zach is bothered bout the current state of Prediction Markets.
Prediction markets are now seen as shady gambling, no more that accurate "wisdom of the crowd" tools.
we have already experienced so many wrong things lately like resolution fights, whales rigging via UMA, and insiders games.
Most users are now treating these platforms like memecoins chasing quick wins, getting addicted, and losing money.
the smart ones and platforms profit, while average gamblers lose and get blamed after.
All the the negative press sticks to us users and the whole industry itself.
It is not the fair and transparent future many hoped for.
If you are someone who Plays big, it's better to stay away if you hate uncertainty.

NYSE is bringing its upcoming tokenized securities clearing and settlement platform to Avalanche.
This is great news for the AVAX team tbh.
Getting involved in the infrastructure behind one of the biggest traditional stock markets is no small achievement.
It also shows that Avalanche is positioning itself for more than just DeFi and crypto-native applications.
What's even more interesting is that this could open the door for more traditional financial institutions to explore Avalanche as they move towards tokenization.
If it actually plays out and it's brought on avax.. we could see avax above $20(joking)
Buh on a more serious note chains getting tied to stuff like this will really push up their coin or sum.
This might be like buying hype at $5, who knows
Nfa.

Sometime, the best move is just being sidelined....and this not about l2
Monad had hype wen the launched and they underperformed.
Same with ARC and they underperformed since day. Still underperforming now I think.
Now Elysium, they might later cook sum wen the hype is gone.
Take a look at Robinhood, no hype and nun buh they been cooking since day 1.
90% of hyped stuff always underperform, cos peeps are there to extract
so you're telling me there's no protocol that will lift the curse on L2s?
all coins on Elysium are ded just a few hours after launch, and the rest of the ecosystem doesn't seem to be doing well either and most surprising is that, they just blocked withdrawals lmao.
should we just cancel L2s at this point?

We're back for more Primus Labs content and today we'll be covering the BNB: Confidentially + Verification aspect.
One thing institutions value just as much as transparency is control over what they disclose.
think about it:
A financial institution operating on BNB Chain shouldn't have to expose every transaction detail, internal position or business strategy just to demonstrate that its activities are legitimate.
This is where @primus_labs gets interesting because with zkTLS, institutions can verify information from external platforms without revealing the underlying private data.
With FHE, they can perform computations on encrypted information without exposing the actual inputs.
put these together and you get something important:
Institutions can participate, verify and build on BNB Chain while maintaining control over sensitive information.
The goal isn't to make everything private or everything public, it's to give institutions the freedom to decide what gets revealed, while keeping important claims verifiable.
That's the kind of flexibility that could make BNB more attractive to serious financial players.
Privacy with accountability is a combination worth paying attention to.
Stay tuned for more Primus Labs contents.

the agent economy actually needs more than just a marketplace.
If agents are hiring each other, delivering work, and getting paid automatically onchain, you eventually need a way to verify the actions and data behind those jobs. Otherwise it still relies on trust.
and that's why we have projects like @primus_labs, building that verification piece with zkTLS so agents can prove what data they used and what they actually did, without exposing everything.

Geniusly like @termix_ai and think it can be an opportunity to make money for many people playing around with AI agents
They are building the commerce platform for the AI agent economy
TLDR: AI agents (and people) can hire other agents, post jobs, deliver work, and get paid automatically onchain

Also YZi Labs is backing them with $1M, pretty bullish
The platform is still pretty new but if they manage to get traction (which I think is doable) it might be worth it

tldr elysium!
we farmed testnet for 2 weeks, pre-mainnet for another 3 weeks
just for the chain to feel dead on day 1
24K+ sandwich attacks, $303K extracted
6K+ traders affected
66K+ tokens launched, only 12 hit $1M mcap
daily txs down 80% from peak
privileged RPC access controversy
team changed its explanation ?????

so the founder called everyone a ''farmer'' and later on rug.
we all forgot that crime here is legal 🤡
isn't it ?
farmers and investors got screwed again.
also seems like the founder of Berachain got screwed too.
Meet @puffpaw
> the so called ''connected vape DePin network launching on Berachain '' lol
> after close to 3years of farming farmers, they came up from nowhere and annouced token claim and terms.
> team raised more than $10M, ghosted their early investors and farmers, promised no lock-up (vesting) airdrop for Discord roles & burning NFT's. To remind that farmers spent loads of money on vapes and refills.
team have been ghosting investors and farmers, their tg is blocked, same as discord.
alors, 16 wallets that both bought $VAPE on Uniswap and held YES on the Puffpaw FDV markets. These wallets had not traded any other Polymarket markets, coïncidence ?
It is also quite hilarious that the founder is based in the US and doxxed.
Perfect scam @web2reffo
