Starting with @AugusLSN (@AugurProject) on the difference between prediction markets and gambling:
"In a casino, the house always extracts. In a sportsbook, the odds are negative-EV by design
A real prediction market is an open order book. Nobody inside the protocol has a privileged position over you"
And on whales pushing the odds in their own favour:
"Sure, with enough money you can push 40% to 80%
But lying to a prediction market means putting your money on the table for everyone else to take"

Meritocracies are a beautiful thing
🎙️ "Crypto is a Swiss Army knife for freedom: it's decentralized, permissionless, trustless."
That's how Phill ( @AugusLSN ), co-founder of the Lituus Foundation and steward of @AugurProject, frames the cypherpunk case for crypto

We’re glad to share this one.
@krakenfx has been one of Augur’s longest-standing exchange partners, including during its hibernation.
We’re grateful for their support of REP holders and for their broader commitment to decentralized, open-source software. The space could use ers on Kraken are covered. You don’t have to do anything. The migration will happen automatically on their end.

GM. Lituus Labs is proposing a new Augur.
A modular, cross-chain oracle — open to any use case, not just prediction markets.
Pay a fee. Ask a question. Get decentralized truth.
Read the proposal and share your thoughts 👇

We're seeking community input on triggering and testing Augur's algorithmic fork - a unique opportunity to strengthen oracle security and showcase the codified social defense system.
This impacts REP holders, who would migrate within 6 month to avoid a burn, reducing supply.

gm. Augur is Back.
The Lituus Foundation is reviving Augur, the pioneering decentralized oracle that brought crypto prediction markets to life.
Augur’s oracle ensures economic security with a decentralized system of incentives. $REP holders compete in a permissionless, me where honesty is the most profitable action.
As prediction markets scale into the billions, the risks of censorship and manipulation grow. Augur solves this with a specialized, immutable oracle—free from corruptible councils or emergency backstops. Without it, the potential of prediction markets to deliver unbiased information remains limited.
Two development teams are leading the charge:
Lituus Labs(@AugusLSN): Will apply new technology and learnings to modernize and improve the oracle, starting with exploring a low-fee L2 deployment.
Dark Florists(@MicahZoltu): Committed to building censorship-resistant prediction tools on Ethereum Mainnet, their first initiative will be an AMM-like streamlining of the trading experience.
We invite developers, thinkers, and contributors to join us on this journey. Let’s shape the future of informational finance together — decentralized, permissionless, and unstoppable.

Had ChatGPT analyze last year of stock data to determine the best strategy.
It told me to place a market buy on VIX at 2:13PM EST every Wednesday.
Sharpe of 6.9, I'm gonna be rich!

#PoS is a more significant net benefit to society and the right way forward.
However, #Ethereum #Flippening impact on miners whose lives will be uprooted deserves consideration.
Is this their reward for fidelity?

What kind of a brokerage policy allows short selling valued at multiples of daily volume? @FTX_Official
The #CelShortSqueeze strategy will work for any illiquid coins that have a high short float.
The retail gains may be temporary, but the losses for shorters are permanent.
