In recent years I’ve noticed a massive rise in what could be called ‘financial degeneracy.’ Shitcoins, NFTs, sports betting, even stuff like Pokemon cards just seem to be a vehicle for trying to make a quick buck and find a bigger idiot. Prediction markets are a new one in the series. Probably linked to economic nihilism. Young people giving up on the dream of success via traditional means.
