Waterbongo

I’ve been a builder throughout my life. But it’s been a one-way path, where I find a problem and I fix it for myself. I bought EVs, a few things I hated about it… So what did I do? Just tore it apart and rebuilt it the way I wanted it to be. I turned frustration into engineering. That’s itch is what brought me to Web3. Prediction markets have been giving me trouble for so long, and I decided to fix it. More on that soon.

I spent months trading on prediction markets before touching my product. I used the product like crazy… took 100s of trades/week. That’s when I realized what’s actually broken.. There’s no shortcut for building a real product. Market analysis, and competitors research is secondary. The most important thing is to first understand what you’re dealing with. You can’t design for a frustration you haven’t felt.

We built a feature for @tradeonpear last week that the whole team was proud of. Tested it with real users 4 out of 5 didn't even notice it was there. So, we killed it the same day. Our goal is to keep the product as simple as possible and if something is not useful, it has no place on the platform.

@devcraft05 sure

@waterbongo This is so real . Mind if I send a dm ?

I watch 100s of people on X predict things perfectly. but it always ends with a QT…. “I called it” Here's what most don't realize: That call could have paid. Prediction markets don't run on speculation. It’s all conviction If you have strong conviction in even the smallest thing (a game, a market, a political outcome), prediction market is your obvious choice.

@triples_eth Do quality replies = higher retention

Do more replies = higher impressions? Not really. Replies can boost visibility, but impressions still depend largely on how good your posts are. Does that mean I stop being a reply girl? N O. I’ll always be here to support my fav people on this app 🫶🏼

@Naeven_0 Icos hasn't came back with better ui.. it came back with better liquidity

2026 CT recap so far: - icos came back just to rug with better ui - projects/insiders farming their own airdrops like it’s yield - pay $5 in fees to earn $7 (if lucky) - Nikita pressed the red button on infofi - coordinated "organic" pumps & insta dumps - colorful tier lists of pfps, projects etc - weekly exploits & post-mortems - Bitcoin & Ethereum saw a ~50% correction - political meta unlocked: Trump & friends extracting like it’s defi summer anyone who can make the flip side of this version?

@himgajria Prediction markets is Still so early but it's messy

Hyperliquid, polymarket and stablecoins are the most used and profitable products to come out of crypto. Ironically, none of them are decentralised.

@stacy_muur You missed @tradeonpear to add in it

The current state of prediction markets. And you’re telling me, “No, Web3 doesn’t have an idea crisis?”

@galileowilson Easiest and most profitable

Most people think "KOL" management is some complicated heavy job. It’s not. Creators are hungry. 99 out of 100 accept every deal you bring them. Projects are hungry for distribution. You sit in the middle, take a cut, both sides win. I’ve done this for 2 years. It prints five figures a month, every month, with maybe 4 hours of work a week, just consistent network. If you actually know which creators fit campaigns wants & needs... projects are paying, this is the easiest side hustle in crypto.

@ericmcsq Im building my own... Study pear trade

@waterbongo hmm like what platforms are you actually using for this? asking for real because i have opinions on everything and apparently thats worth something now

@ceimatimre31400 Appreciate it

@waterbongo I totally agree

@TokeN_est Making it better

@waterbongo Calling it is cool, getting paid for it is better

@MeywulanNdari Lol real... But you need to do deep research before you dive in it Tons of rug projects in the space

@waterbongo Until it's a rug 😂😂😂

@alwaysearlyjudi You're right Judit

@waterbongo Being right publicly can open doors that a single trade can’t

@IqbFzr_rzFbqI Ppl are leaving the next big narrative on table

@waterbongo honestly this is so real. people leave so much money on the table just by tweeting their takes instead of actually backing them. prediction markets been sitting there the whole time

@0xForecaster totally... without execution its just an idea

@waterbongo i agree but just at the point of market creation after that it’s execution

the game is shifting fast in prediction markets slow markets → opinions still matter fast markets → they barely do your edge becomes: > speed > infra > execution you're no longer competing on ideas you're competing on latency

@waleswoosh depends, but it does feel stretched in sentiment

People are posting wallet addresses for presales again. We are going lower

@jamesrichardfry after a while it’s the same rotations on repeat

all the marketing telegram groups are just noise yes, even THAT one

@jgonzalezferrer real test is what happens when rewards stop

Community is not a metric. It's a feeling And you can't fake it with engagement farming and quest campaigns

@greenytrades cool experiment, but 24h is way too small a sample to conclude anything

Can AI actually make you money? I gave Claude AI $100 connected it directly to my crypto exchange and walked away for 24 hours. Here is what happened when I let the machine take the wheel. I integrated Claude AI with TradingView and BloFin so it could read live market data, create setups and execute real trades. The execution was mind-blowing. Claude proved to be incredibly smart with its risk management. Out of everything in the market, it only traded Ethereum and Solana. When I asked it why, it explained that a small $100 account needs high liquidity assets so that $50 positions don't get destroyed by slippage. Even crazier? During low volatility hours, the AI literally decided to sit in cash rather than force a bad trade. The Results: After 24 hours and five total trades, Claude generated a 1.05% profit with zero catastrophic losses. While 1% sounds small, making 1% a day equates to about ~30% a month (without compounding). Right now, the only limitation is that I had to manually prompt it to check the market due to Claude Co-work limitations, but I am currently moving this setup to a Mac Mini to achieve 100% full 24/7 autonomy.
