10x more convicted in Cade today than I was yesterday. Myself and the team were able to show our mobile app and explain our edge to industry leaders that I never in a million years expected to have a chance to talk to. I don't think anyone understands the level our team is on.

Adding early cash outs to @CadeMarket change everything. Our previous protocol already offered the potential of wildly outsized multiples in our short duration markets. Our new protocol will allow significant multiples on bets in JUST A FEW SECONDS. Only possible on Cade.

I've showed a number of people the @CadeMarket mobile app in the last few days. People that are both outside of crypto and are not a regular gambler. I've asked them to explain to me exactly how it works upon first look and they all can do it. They get it immediately. Achieving this has been one of the most important things that our team has done, as is absolutely critical for building a consumer application. Being able to hide a complex protocol and mechanics and have it appear as something that is immediately understandable for an every day user is how Cade wins. It's a prediction market that looks nothing like a prediction market. It's a sportsbook that looks nothing like a sportsbook. This exponentially multiplies the TAM for an app like ours. An every day average person does not understand how share pricing works, nor do they understand how a money line or player props work. The sheer number of people that want to do something as simple as turning $10 into $20 in a few minutes is big. This definitely is possible with memecoins, but it's vastly harder. Memecoins ultimately are a "solved" game. It's industrialized via the amount of programmatic launches that bundle a token and then dump it. For an every day user, or a first time trader, it's impossible to know if you've bought into one of these tokens. On Cade however, nobody can manipulate the outcome of a market like this. You make your decision, and it plays out. What this means is that everyone from a sophisticated trader to a professional sports better to your mom or dad can easily understand how to use Cade. The downstream effect of this is that via the Value Engine in our tokenomics, the potential number of users that can drive value to the PUMPCADE token is astronomical. And the best part is, they do not have to know they are doing so. The end goal for Cade is to be the most fun place to have an opinion, and I believe our team is on the correct path to doing so. Cade on.

The @CadeMarket mobile app is crack in your pocket.

I think the @CadeMarket engineering team inadvertently built the BEST live sports companion app. Full stop. Even if you are not placing predictions, the Cade mobile app is an incredible place to check scores, get alerts, and monitor live games. There's levels to this.

.@steoniy is walking me through the Cade mobile app right now and i'm speechless. League of our own type shit. Crack cocaine in your pocket.

I've spent the last year building @CadeMarket and am not going to give anyone the opportunity to try and insider trade the mainnet catalyst and make a quick buck on a flip. We published our tokenomics, which includes the Value Engine for buybacks and accrual to our token 5 months ago. This was long before even our first beta test. This is how much thought we put into how the product is built around the token, not the other way around. Nobody outside of the team knows when mainnet is. We will announce the mainnet date publicly, and everyone will find out together. Mainnet is the first time where the solana:Eg2ymQ2aQqjMcibnmTt8erC6Tvk9PVpJZCxvVPJz2agu token is tangibly tied to the product. Up until this point, the token has been purely speculative. We have done $0 in buybacks, no OTC deals, or market making. The token was fair launched on Pump Fun, with zero bundling or supply control. To be where we are now is pretty remarkable. I encourage you to read our tokenomics below, which explains how real platform activity flows through the value engine and rewards real usage. xitter.cf/CadeMarket/status/2049… Cade on.

.@CadeMarket turned 1 a few days ago. I want to reflect back on the last year that i've been working on this and share some of the lore for the many new eyes we have on the project now. A year ago I deployed the token on Pump Fun for what was then a very VERY different project. I took a ROM of 2048 and let users play collaboratively via typing commands in a Pump Fun livestream chat. Shortly after, I made a dozen or so arcade games with the same sort of premise. You typed "play" in the chat and you'd join the minigame and it would simulate the game outcome. Over a week or so, I gave out creator fees from the token to players on the leaderboard. Every few days, I turned on the livestream and people would play. This went on for a few weeks. At this point, I was still employed full time as a smart contract engineer, and Cade was just a fun side project i'd work on late at night. I had a random thought pop into my head one night. What if I could let people bet on the outcome of the games, and I built a system to let users control a wallet via live stream commands. This one idea made me so delusionally optimistic about building Cade that I made the (at the time) crazy decision to quit my job. Mind you, my wife and I had just had our first child, and he was 2 months old. For the next 6 months, I was working full-time on the project... for free. Didn't want to touch the creator fees of the token. During this time, the idea began to evolve. I dropped the livestream aspect to the project, and realized that the tech that I had built was quite literally picture perfect for resolving markets programmatically. Because I could resolve a market programmatically, this opened up the possibility to offer very short prediction markets. This was where the modern day idea of Cade was born. Quick markets, on only things that can be verifiably resolved, paid out instantly. In March, I was selected as a winner of the Pump Fun build in public hackathon. The hilarious part of this is that @kosgoood ran the hackathon, and later joined Cade as my Chief Operating Officer. A day after winning the hackathon, I had already closed a pre-seed fundraising round. Less than 2 weeks later, I closed a seed fundraising round. At this point, we were ready to hyperscale the tech. My first 2 hires were @gnarzilla as CTO and @steoniy as CPO, both of which i've known and worked with prior. Shortly after that, I brought on @0xRookmate and @scottybmitch, 2 more engineers that i've known for years. Before the summer, we ran an open beta. This was to introduce users to the general premise of Cade. We intentionally put out a very raw version of the product. This resulted in users giving us VERY constructive feedback, and we listened to every single piece of it. This has been a trend for Cade. We always build everything (that we can) in public, and it's been one of the best business decisions that i've made. In July, it was time to introduce sports markets. We ran the Cade Cup, which was a short duration prediction market tournament on World Cup games. The traction for this was massive. Around 10,000 active users and nearly 200k predictions. In mid September, we wanted to stress test the systems again. We launched Meme Madness, which would give us 22 hours of live platform activity. Once again, the traction was staggering. Roughly 14,000 users and over half a million predictions. All throughout this time, we spent 3 months putting hours and hours a day into legal and research on what would be required to launch the platform in the most legally compliant manner. At the end of August, we were able to obtain the necessary iGaming license that will permit our mainnet launch with real dollars on the platform. That's all for now. I'll see you all for the Cade mainnet launch.

We're working on the @CadeMarket referral program right now. We're designing this to be extremely generous and lucrative compared to other platforms We've put significant market research into programs both inside and outside of crypto No fluff. No farming. You'll receive direct percentages of volume that you refer to the platform, paid in cold hard cash. You'll definitely want to refer your friends to Cade and highly recommend you join our email list now if you haven't yet.

Myself and many of my engineers have worked in this industry for a decade, and built protocols with billions of dollars in TVL and processed millions of transactions. We know ball. But... Unfortunately, money onchain is just nowhere near as safe as it used to be with LLM advancements. We're seeing some of the best teams in the industry that put every best foot forward with regards to security and pay immense attention to detail STILL get exploited. You ultimately do need to think about building protocols in vastly different ways in this new landscape. This is why @CadeMarket is built to be as TVL minimized as possible. 1. The MAXIMUM amount of funds that could be at risk at any given time is the sum of the pools of ONLY currently active markets. These markets already have short lifespans (5 minutes or less). 2. Users deposit directly into embedded wallets that THEY control. Cade has zero control over the funds in these wallets, and the protocol can not freely pull/transfer from them. 3. After a market ends, winnings are immediately sent back to winners embedded wallet. 4. Each market is entirely isolated, and can not interact with other markets. When building protocols now, you have to play on defense, and take every step that you can to reduce the amount of potential at risk funds, and THIS is what we are doing at Cade. Cade on.
