You're so wrong if you think this industry is failing.
BTC just falls under $90,000.
But we've been growing faster than ever.
I had this thought when looking back at “Prediction” and “Privacy” narratives in 2023.
Prediction got some eyeballs. But it failed at getting real adoption.
Some OGs even told me “it failed because no one really wanted to speculate anything except token price”, and back then I agreed because I didn’t have strong argument to counter it.
Privacy? That narrative was completely dead.
I used to see weekly posts saying privacy tokens were the worst performers. No one cared. And honestly, I’m glad those projects managed to crawl back from the bottom because their comeback shows how fast this industry evolves.
Fast forward to today.
On prediction, I think winning on @Polymarket is sometimes easier than trading perps. Some markets actually reward you if you’re willing to dig in, find that edge, and form your own thesis. Add the upcoming POLY airdrop and it’s just a bonus on top.
And people do bet on Polymarket. Because it’s fun, and because to win consistently you need to think independently rather than follow narratives blindly.
Privacy is also seeing real demand now. Big players don’t want to be visible on every large transaction. It's real problem from user adoption behavior. This is why people are betting on protocols like @Zcash and @Starknet.
This is how I see it:
> These are signs of maturation.
> The market is rewarding people who show up, think, and stay curious.
We’re growing. And I still think those who show up here every day will be rewarded.
