I’ve been obsessed with @pumpcade 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
Pop Punk@PopPunkOnChain

Excited to share the first people that will be joining the @pumpcade 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.

The Big Four airlines (American, Delta, Southwest, United) control 75% of the U.S. market. Fewer choices = higher prices for you.

Something feels deeply broken about Warren’s politics. She built her brand fighting incumbents and concentrated power. Somehow that has turned into policy outcomes that protect incumbents and weaken the alternatives. Spirit is just the most recent example. It was one of the few airlines putting pressure on low-end fares in a market the Big 4 already dominate. Blocking the JetBlue deal was framed as protecting that pressure. Now Spirit is in bankruptcy, liquidating assets, cutting routes, and that low-cost pressure is disappearing anyway. Consumers lose the option and the larger airlines get stronger. She also attacked crypto in the same way. FTX was centralized custody failing. Instead of focusing on custodians, Warren uses it to attack the entire space, including self-custody and open rails, the parts designed to reduce reliance on intermediaries. At what point is there an investigation into her?
Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren

I've warned for months that a @JetBlue-@SpiritAirlines merger would have led to fewer flights and higher fares. @JusticeATR and @USDOT were right to stand up for consumers and fight against runaway airline consolidation. This is a Biden win for flyers! apnews.com/article/jetblu…

April was nuts for @pumpcade - team grew from just me to 4 employees (actively interviewing growth leads now) - announced pre-seed, seed, and ACE round - announced tokenomics We're load testing open beta now. It's a much more optimized version of the 4 month closed beta.

There's a lot in here from @PopPunkOnChain @gnarzilla @steoniy and @0xRookmate here. It's long, complicated, and it should be. How else do you tie a token to an app's ecosystem thoroughly, it requires deep work and thought. "Users do not need to understand the token in order to contribute to the tokenomics system" AMEN. Web3 at times stumbles over itself to say its web3. We don't have to. I rarely mess with coins on SOL but I knew pop had a great vision. anyways, pumpcade.

CeDeFi is being exposed - these hacks almost always boil down to social engineering. Things like broken language, poor copywriting, fake sounding information are all no longer obvious red flags when looking for phishing scams, a local LLM can easily copywrite legitimate sounding comms for scammers now. Products with admin keys, multisig or EOA, are all at a much higher risk than they were even 6 months ago - and young founders who “move fast and break things” aren’t necessarily known for their opsec. It is absolutely critical that ALL blockchain founders step up their operations. Hire consultants, have red teams attack your platform, install phishing training for employees, expense for MacBook Neos for anyone who’s doing signing, and never become complacent. Be vigilant, it’s not just your reputation on the line. By being negligent you’re funding real world bad guys.

Probably going to have to see this work in real time to see its pitfalls, if it has some. I’d be surprised if this isn’t altered on full release but that’s kinda the point of beta. Do you have docs which show calcs on markets? How payouts are calculated based on stake/volume/price at prediction/time?

Lots more to digest. I think I’m aligned on the principle. It’s a true utility token and a huge positive that there’s zero unlocks/emissions in “rewards” which dilutes everyone. In essence the more Pumpcade is used, the more $PUMPCADE is needed. This is a huge pro v other sites that try to integrate complex tokenomics after their product has formed.

The crowding fee is V1 of how we plan on attacking this. Simplest but over-punishing method on chain by design - the more flexibility you build directly on chain, the larger attack surfaces you build for people to take advantage of. One thing the article doesn’t mention is there is a configurable fair launch period, where there will be no congestion fees applied, so early users will be able to make predictions into those off-weight pools without penalty.

I need to reread the crowded market section to understand what they’re attempting for fees in that area. Gut says there’s a better way to do this as some markets thrive off being completely lopsided and deterring that rather than using stake/entry based returns in some capacity seems a little oversimplified.

A bonus of @pumpcade starting as a Pump Fun token is how we're able to continuously surprise people you'll never raise capital -> we did you're going to kill the token -> tokenomics that build the product AROUND the token, not the inverse Idk man Pumpcade might be inevitable

Great, digestible breakdown from Hiro. Really impressed with the ability to digest this fairly dense article and break it up into smaller pieces. Give this a read if you want a quicker version of the article!
HiroKennellyᵍᵐ😅@HiroKennelly

.@pumpcade just dropped tokenomics. Most projects build the token, then retrofit a story. Pumpcade built the story, then earned the right to design the token. No treasury. No emissions. No farming. The token sits downstream of real product activity. Exactly where it belongs.

TLDR: Utility is funded by real Pumpcade usage. No farming rewards. No emissions. No mercenary capital. No fake activity. Platform activity in. Stronger ecosystem out.

It’s never been more important to have extremely tight OpSec as a person - especially someone who is a key signer for protocols that people trust with their funds. Everyone at top TVL programs needs to study principles of least privilege, anti phishing techniques, separating work from personal computers, and constantly be learning and adapting to new security procedures. This should be *table stakes* for any high level person at a blockchain adjacent company.
Blockaid@blockaid_

🚨 Blockaid's exploit detection system identified an on-going admin-key compromise exploit on @wasabi_protocol across Ethereum and Base. The Wasabi: Deployer EOA was used to grant ADMIN_ROLE to an attacker helper contract, which then UUPS-upgraded the perp vaults and LongPool to a malicious implementation that drained balances.

We're not really in the position to target an RTP for users as the markets are purely peer to peer and there is no house to tune odds. But I like the thought process! Casinos use things like rake-back and fee-back processes to bring back their high quality customers which is more the angle we'd need to take.

@gnarzilla Kinda interesting idea and maybe not ideal for the spirit of the core offering. But casinos often operate on often really high rtp. Imagine taking that to the prediction markets as maybe a mode for people who want to be engaged in the action but don’t want to blow there bankroll.

Pumpcade will support crosschain onboarding & offboarding. The protocol itself lives on Solana, but by using embedded wallets with abstracted transactions, we can make the app feel "native" to any blockchain. Deposit from anywhere, predict, withdraw to anywhere. Pumpcade.

The monad account was suspended without warning, I have to assume due to a mistake. We weren't doing anything abnormal, using the API, etc. We've reached out to X support via a variety of channels and I would expect the account to be back soon.
