good(@thenarrator):funny how robinhood built a chain for tokenized finance and memecoins immediately took over. you'd think that's the product failing. i'm starting to think it's the opposite. speculation is probably the cheapest way to bootstrap financial behavior. users arrive for the thing moving 100% today, fund accounts, trade, build habits and leave liquidity behind. the boring assets can come later. prediction markets are showing something similar. $156m of q2 revenue for robinhood and 13.6b contracts traded. there's probably a broader lesson here: serious financial products don't necessarily need serious distribution.
