This approval allows Polymarket to facilitate trades through brokers, expected to bring in substantial liquidity and user engagement. Furthermore, discussions emphasized: rapid growth in platform website traffic; its potential to surpass major competitors like Coinbase in the near future; the platform's expansion into the U.S. market seen as a crucial moment for the prediction markets, positioning Polymarket as a leader in the field.

[MEGAETH]
Today, the discussion around MEGAETH mainly focused on its pre-deposit activity, which encountered significant technical issues, including website crashes and poorly managed cap increases. The originally set $250 million cap was filled within minutes of the delayed launch, attributed to the website crash. Subsequent attempts to raise the cap to $1 billion were mishandled, resulting in community confusion and criticism. Despite these issues, MEGAETH's innovative approach to funding operations through USDm-backed treasury reserves instead of using a sequencer auction was highlighted as a disruptive move in L2 economics. Community reactions varied: some were frustrated by the technical mishaps, while others remained optimistic about MEGAETH's potential.

NESA garnered attention for its innovative AI approach, which shards data and models to ensure privacy and security, providing cryptographic proofs for outputs. This approach eliminates the need for blind trust in companies, aligning with the "don't trust, verify" philosophy.
