  4. The World Cup and Crypto!

    The numbers are in - the World Cup generated ~$50B in prediction market activity, starting in Jan 2026.

    "Who will win the World Cup?" got the most action - NOT surprising.

    It also generated ~$24M in collectable trading volume. A FIFA program called “FIFA Collect” allowed fans to buy and sell digital moments. chainalysis.com/blog/2026-worl #WorldCup #Predictions #PredictionMarkets #Crypto #NFTs #BlockChain #Gambling #Bets #DigitalCollectables #FIFAWorldCup #FIFA #FIFACollects #CryptoWallets

  6. RE: bolha.us/@rodrigoreis/11695693

    "país ACUSADO de ser esquerdista" à parte, vale a leitura deste texto esclarecedor sobre domínios ".bet.br": migalhas.com.br/depeso/452799/

    Destaco esta passagem:

    5. A nacionalização regulatória como escolha de política pública

    A introdução do domínio “.bet.br” insere-se em uma estratégia mais ampla de nacionalização regulatória, orientada por objetivos de política pública, tais como:

    Desenvolvimento econômico;
    Incremento de arrecadação;
    Fortalecimento da supervisão;
    Proteção do consumidor;
    Organização do mercado interno.
    Trata-se, portanto, de uma opção regulatória, e não de reconhecimento inaugural da licitude da atividade.
