Did you ever find any additional info regarding these two concerns?

One thing I don’t see mentioned, is that if you plant an apple this way, the apple tree that grows is very unlikely to be the same type of apple you planted (and could very well taste terrible). This is because the genetic material in an apple seed is derived from both parents. One being the apple tree the apple grew on, the other being the source of the pollen that pollinated the apple blossom. This is why apple orchards graft their apple trees, i.e. take a twig from the tree of a desired apple variety and attach it to a young tree that is already growing. This ensures that the new tree will produce the type of apples you want, not some random apple variety that may not taste good once the tree finally starts producing apples years later. Thats a long time to wait to be sorely disappointed. But who knows, maybe the new variety you make tastes great.

Letting people know expatriotic.me is set up with a catch all email address is a bit risky. If someone wanted to start sending you hundreds of emails to random-text@expatriotic.me, your inbox would be overrun and you’d have to switch to auto-deleting all incoming emails from addresses you haven’t white listed. This would mean manually adding all email addresses you create in advance (which would negate a lot of the benefit of making them on the fly).

This isn’t impacting how funds are stored at all. Just making use of the fact that effort has already gone into securing funds, might as well use that same security to encrypt some additional notes.

Sounds fun, count me in. Also looking forward to following along here during the games to see how quickly odds of this prediction market update with momentum swings. https://beta.predyx.com/market/college-football-champion-2025

Looks like the teams are the correct color now. Though, it is weird that there is a blue “other” in the legend that shows it sums up to 0.1 on the y axis, but the ‘other’ trace doesn’t actually appear in the plot. Also, the total would be more than 0.1 for all the remaining teams not currently shown in the plot.

Nice, I see the market is up. I’m not sure the plot colors are right. Oregon is showing as green, but it looks like it is actually the purple trace. Seems like Texas should be green.

Awesome, looking forward to it. Yup, those are the 12 teams!

This was December 8th, not January 8th

Any update on this? It would be awesome to see a multi-option market for the 12 team college football playoff.

Georgia does not play Texas A&M today, they play Texas. Different team.

Awesome, thanks. Would recommend sharing that somewhere in the FAQ. Gives me way more confidence to start trading having that information.

How does predix take their cut? Fees off each trade? Off of the spread? Didn’t see that in the FAQ. Just curious what piece of the pie that is. Thanks.

Anyone have a suggested Pubky to enter as an example to see what public data it reveals?

Nobody. Unlike previous bull runs, friends and family haven’t started asking about it again yet this cycle.

How would it be possible to “mine all remaining bitcoin in the USA”? What could possibly be done to prevent any person or entity outside of the USA from mining a single block? It’s just a clear misunderstanding of how bitcoin mining works, and nothing will make that statement achievable. I guess maybe a credible threat of nuclear attack against any location detected to be mining bitcoin outside of the US. Even then, that would not be ‘good for Bitcoin’.
