Charles argues that to solve the "insider trading" accusation in prediction markets without destroying privacy, we need "sophisticated selective disclosure tools" using Zero-Knowledge proofs (proving you are accredited/not an insider without revealing your name). As prediction markets attract regulatory heat (SEC/CFTC), the only survival mechanism is "Compliant Privacy." Layer 1s and protocols that have integrated ZK-identity solutions (which Cardano/IOG is building with partners like ZKME) will become the required infrastructure for legal prediction markets. Long ADA and Privacy Infrastructure as a "picks and shovels" play on regulated prediction markets. Regulators may reject ZK proofs and demand full KYC/doxxing, rendering "selective disclosure" tech less valuable. |

"Bitcoin... it will require probably a hard fork... and that's going to be challenging... We do with Cardano, Polka Dot does, Tezos does, everybody who did onchain governance does. It's a six-month conversation for us." As technological threats like Quantum Computing emerge (projected ~2033), rigid blockchains that cannot easily upgrade (Bitcoin) face existential governance risks. Chains with built-in on-chain governance (Cardano, Polkadot, Tezos) can upgrade their cryptographic primitives seamlessly, making them safer long-term infrastructure plays for institutional adoption. LONG (Quality/Governance premium). Network effects of Bitcoin outweigh its technical rigidity; Quantum threat may be further away than predicted. |
