Market views

Bullish

PREDMKTS— Prediction markets represent a massive opportunity as they could become the largest financial market due to universal appeal and utility for everyday decision-making
KALSHI— Kalshi experienced explosive 100x growth after winning their election lawsuit and continues to expand rapidly with strong market position
BROKERS— Brokerage platforms are increasingly partnering with prediction markets, with Kalshi building a deep pipeline of broker relationships
ONCHAIN— Traditional finance companies like Robinhood are expected to increasingly adopt on-chain trading over the next 4-5 years

Bearish

POLYMARKET— Polymarket lacks real revenue with significant wash trading concerns, while Kalshi claims to be 3x bigger within a year
SPORTSBOOKS— Traditional sportsbooks have worse odds for users compared to prediction markets, with roughly 50/50 win rates on Kalshi versus much lower on sportsbooks
