A simple and direct analysis of the crypto feints of the e-commerce giant, gift cards as a real bridge and the zero-risk strategy behind corporate silence.

Robinhood and Susquehanna are buying regulated infrastructure (LedgerX) to push prediction markets for real: it’s not “an app,” it’s building an exchange + clearing so the world’s “yes/no” can trade like a contract.
