I’ve been obsessed with @cademarket ever since @PopPunkOnChain told me about the pivot to parimutuel markets for streams It opens the door to an enormous design space for integrations, participation, and new market experiences Couldn’t be more excited to bring this from 0 to 1
Excited to share the first people that will be joining the @cademarket team. @gnarzilla - CTO @steoniy - CPO I’ve been fortunate to work closely with these two guys during my career and am extremely lucky to bring them onboard to build the fastest prediction platform Pumpcade.

Myself and many of my engineers have worked in this industry for a decade, and built protocols with billions of dollars in TVL and processed millions of transactions. We know ball. But... Unfortunately, money onchain is just nowhere near as safe as it used to be with LLM advancements. We're seeing some of the best teams in the industry that put every best foot forward with regards to security and pay immense attention to detail STILL get exploited. You ultimately do need to think about building protocols in vastly different ways in this new landscape. This is why @CadeMarket is built to be as TVL minimized as possible. 1. The MAXIMUM amount of funds that could be at risk at any given time is the sum of the pools of ONLY currently active markets. These markets already have short lifespans (5 minutes or less). 2. Users deposit directly into embedded wallets that THEY control. Cade has zero control over the funds in these wallets, and the protocol can not freely pull/transfer from them. 3. After a market ends, winnings are immediately sent back to winners embedded wallet. 4. Each market is entirely isolated, and can not interact with other markets. When building protocols now, you have to play on defense, and take every step that you can to reduce the amount of potential at risk funds, and THIS is what we are doing at Cade. Cade on.

I’ve worked for and with many companies in my career and especially startups. It’s rare to see team members, even in the early days, put in the level of grit that the Cade team is towards this product. They truly bleed orange. Honored to have joined the ride and grateful to have this level of integration between marketing, product, and engineering. I know that in the coming months millions of people will get to enjoy the results of this passion and coordination.

Meme Madness has lived up to its name for the development team: absolute madness. We’ve supported thousands of users and hundreds of thousands of predictions across a complex system of daily tournaments and multiple chains, all while continuing to ship improvements to production. We launched on brand new infrastructure built for scale and performance. That’s come with growing pains, and this tournament has been an incredible pressure test. It's been effective in showing us what’s working, where we’re falling short, and what needs to improve. I’m proud of what the team has delivered and the scale we’ve supported, but we know there’s work to do. We’re taking those lessons back to the lab to build a better experience for our next tournament and mainnet. Cade on.
In the first 8 hours of today's tournament day we've already doubled the user count from the entirety of day 1 Every day has been an all time high in terms of active users, returning users, and predictions placed The team is working nearly 24/7 to continue to ship improvements

We've put in a lot of time and effort to the UX of the site to make it feel materially different than other trading terminals and prediction markets, because we're materially different in how everything operates. We're continuing to iterate based on our own play and feedback we're seeing - which was the point of this test and free tournament. In addition to UX features, we're constantly working on improving the responsiveness and reliability of the site. Better every day. Thank you everyone for participating so far and here's to even better experiences in the future!
If you haven’t tried @CadeMarket yet, take a couple mins to marvel at the construction and flow of the UX. You can clearly see how this platform is going to be big for game streaming, sports betting… and developing your own markets (lots of new APIs to go searching for out there).

In July we ran the Cade Cup, a prediction tournament on the World Cup. With 3 more hours STILL REMAINING in the first official day of Meme Madness... We have had a 5.95x increase in users versus day 1 of the Cade Cup.

Meme Madness is going live at 1am EST! (With a slight positive adjustment) Your mission for the next week is extremely simple. Predict whether memes go up or down in 1, 3, or 5 minutes. We’re giving away $120,000 USDC to the best players. Make sure you’re in the top 100 players each day to be eligible, and we’ll also be saving a good chunk of funds for best P&L and most predictions made. To state the obvious, the event has started a bit later than expected. We partially planned for this, and in particular day 1 being a bit of a dry run. We’re going to reward players who worked through some initial bugs and participated as we smoothed out the system, and these prizes will all be additive to the original $120k that has been promised. Remember that Cade is pre-mainnet, and these events are not just designed to be fun and give away money but to test our systems and help construct a one-of-kind prediction market. Thanks for your patience and the tournament now officially begins at 1am ET on September 15th, ending on September 22st at 11pm ET. Cade On

Quick rundown of what you can expect from Meme Madness - a simple concept with lots of layers to it once people figure it out. Excited to see how it all performs and what fun stuff people come up with to play. Good luck everyone!
Meme madness starts in just over 5 hours (1 AM ET) Over the next 7 days, there's $120,000 in prizes up for grabs, and it's totally free to play. We wanted to share a full walkthrough and demo of the platform so you know exactly how to play and can jump right in when it starts.

9/11 fundamentally changed how I looked at the world. We have become complacent again in the quarter century since this happened - you can see it in discourse around being American. After 9/11 I've never seen more pride in being American, regardless of our faults or problems. Every single person rallied around community and supporting each other. In the wake of this attack we became the strongest I've ever seen us. I pray that there is never another attack like this. And I pray that Americans can find a common ground in the present without it ever happening again. Never forget what happened and how the world rejoiced at our pain. It's an impossible task to be a world super power, but looking at all the others I am extremely blessed to be an American.
Never forget. This one was very personal to me. Warning: Sensitive imagery.

I’ve settled into a pretty effective pattern now with Astra that doesn’t completely eat my subscription. GPT pro 6 as an initial planner. Go back and forth with it to set up a comprehensive plan for a specific problem. Provide it context on my skill I use for allocating work. Pass this plan to a Luna xhigh or max fresh context chat. This will act as the orchestrator handing off tasks. Sol works as the logic interpreter. It will come up with sub-plans based on 6 pros plan and delegate to Astra code implementers with the smallest possible scope and a specific simplicity skill I wrote to focus on reusing existing code as much as possible. Implementers pass code back to Luna for testing and back and forth until accepted and finally back to Astra for a final sign off. I’ve gone from melting 5-10% of my $200 sub an hour to 1-2%. Game changer.

Memecoin "devs" find out that pressing a button on a site is not differentiating and memecoins have no moat reminds me so much of defi summer. Uniswap, Compound, OHM, Bitcoin etc already saw these happen - difference is they actually had a product and a real financial moat.

Looking forward to everyone’s PnL cards and feedback on what everyone would like to see! Social components and “flexing” is an important part of the game, we’re happy to ship upgrades and focus on what everyone wants.
Shareable as GIFs or MP4s. The feed is going to be full of these next week. Sorry and you're welcome.

Hi. I know we went quiet, but it was for a good reason. Announcements of announcements or fluff tweets wouldn't cut it. We came back when we were ready. Alongside attack vectors, we shipped full support for Robinhood memes, massive visual upgrades, and more. See you Monday.
We’re back! Meme Madness is officially starting Monday September 14 at 1 AM ET, oh, and we’ve added Robinhood. We used the extra time to polish the product and you’re going to feel it. The team has been heads down perfecting the product and closing the cheating vectors we found. We also shipped a bunch of functional and visual upgrades that make the whole thing feel way better to play. We think we’re going to set the standard for short-term prediction markets. Some major news as well. Robinhood Chain is now fully integrated into Meme Madness in addition to the Solana ecosystem. There’s been a ton of volume and excitement over RH so how could we have a meme focused competition and not include it? Because RH is in, we’re refreshing the starting 8 All Stars. Drop Solana or Robinhood tickers in the replies. Even if yours doesn’t make the opening roster, you can vote every day and the top 2 memes battle to become an All Star every 24 hours. Reminder, there’s $120,000 in prizes to be won. See you on Monday.
