Interesting read. The build-up of the premise is great and I think correct, but the conclusion to go all-in on gambling (defined as activity on prediction markets, memecoins, sports betting, etc. and not generally taking risks) I'm sure is not the only option, but we'll have the face the growing sentiment that it is one way or another. What comes out of the other side of that is still to be seen.

GN 🗿 "Possibilities: i. To keep on living (you should be used to it by now) ii. To end it (it was your choice, after all) iii. To die (having met your obligations) Those are the only options. Reason for optimism." - Marcus Aurelius

GN ☕ "If a factory is torn down but the rationality which produced it is left standing, then that rationality will simply produce another factory. If a revolution destroys a government, but the systematic patterns of thought that produced that government are left intact, then those patterns will repeat themselves.... There's so much talk about the system. And so little understanding." - Robert Pirsog
