🛸 Aliens, Tampons, and Trump: Polymarket Gets Weird in 2024
Polymarket hit $8B in trading volume this year, fueled by both serious and hilariously bizarre prediction markets.
🔮 Highlights:
▪️$3M wagered on Elon Musk being named Satoshi Nakamoto (spoiler: he wasn’t 😆).
▪️Nearly $140K bet on whether Trump would say “tampon” (he did—once).
▪️Over $2.7M wagered on the U.S. confirming aliens exist (still no luck).
▪️TIME’s Person of the Year? Not AI, but Trump took the title.
Whether it’s Musk’s tweets, Earth’s shape, or even extraterrestrials, Polymarket has become the place where serious meets absurd. Ready to place your bets for 2025? 😄

🎉 Bitcoin Turns 16! 🎂
On January 3, 2009, Bitcoin was born with the mining of the Genesis Block—the first-ever block in its blockchain. Embedded within it was a message from creator Satoshi Nakamoto: "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"—a bold statement against the 2008 financial crisis and traditional systems reliant on taxpayer-funded bailouts. 🏦💥
The Genesis Block reward? 50 BTC, marking the start of a new financial era. Just days later, on January 12, the first Bitcoin transaction occurred—10 BTC sent by Satoshi to developer Hal Finney. 🚀
Fast forward to today: Bitcoin has surged 124% in the past year, reaching $96,000. What’s next by January 3, 2026? 🌟

🇨🇭 Switzerland May Include Bitcoin in National Reserves 💰
📝 A new initiative in Switzerland aims to amend the Constitution to require the Swiss National Bank (SNB) to hold Bitcoin alongside gold in its reserves. To hold a referendum, 100,000 signatures must be collected by June 30, 2026.
The project has gained significant support, including from legislator Samuel Kullmann. Renowned cryptographer Adam Back also praised the idea, calling it "poetic."
✍️ The signature collection began on December 31, 2024, and is quickly gaining momentum. If implemented, Switzerland will become a pioneer in including Bitcoin in its official reserves.
