“Prediction markets proved their value in 2025. Polymarket and Kalshi reached $45 billion in combined volume on roughly 3,500 event contracts.

These are decisions people already make with diffused information. Noise makes the underlying relevance legible and tradeable.”
Increasingly untethered from material reality. This, versus proof of work.
