Silento should have bought ETH back in 2015 instead of killing his cousin.

Remember back in 2015 when you spent $0.99 to download Silento's hit song, "Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae)?" Well, if you had used that same 99 cents to buy Ethereum, you'd be a billionaire by now!

Actually, that's not true at all. I'm just bad at math. But you still would have made a nice profit, because ETH is once again nearing the $4,000 mark.

Opinion, not financial advice. These views are the author's, who uses aย pseudonymย and cannot trade.

Will the price surge continue, or will it all come crashing down like it did for poor Silento?

He had the right to remain Silentรณ.

Thanks to Kalshi's Ethereum markets, you can take a position on ETH without having to own any crypto. And if you already own ETH, Kalshi's markets also offer a great way to hedge.

Q2 earnings season is underway. This week, tech titans like Tesla and Alphabet (aka Google) are due to release their numbers. Investors are sure to be hanging on every word. And as it happens, Kalshi lets you trade on every word.

Again with the Epstein files?

โ€œI donโ€™t even wanna be around anymore.โ€

Look, I know some of you are sick of all this Epstein stuff (see all our Epstein markets here). And frankly, I wish I could stop writing about the President's relationship with a billionaire sex criminal and focus on more important things, like which flavors JUUL will relaunch.

But I don't make the news. I just write about it. So if you're still following the drama, we have several new markets, such as:

"According to [Kalshi], Bongino had largely been off users' radars until July 11, when CNN published a report detailing an alleged argument between Bongino and Bondi over the Epstein files. From there, Bonginoโ€™s chances of departing the administration reached as high as nearly 70%, but have since dropped to about 40%."

๐Ÿ“ฃ Mr. Mansour goes to Washington

Last week, Kalshi co-founder and CEO Tarek Mansour was at the White House to watch President Trump sign the GENIUS Act, which is the first major U.S. law regulating crypto and stablecoins.

As Tarek noted in a post on X, the signing was 'especially meaningful,' because the GENIUS Act marks a turning point not just for digital currency, but for the broader future of financial innovation, including prediction markets.

So congrats to Tarek for yet another White House visit. I'm glad they didn't force you into some sort of "binder" photo op.
