Key Takeaways 

Polymarket has been approved to re-launch in the U.S. after a three-year ban. Will it extend its dominance over Kalshi? 


Polymarket is set to go live in the U.S. markets again, according to the CEO, Shayne Coplan. In an X (formerly Twitter) post on the 3rd of September, Coplan said

“Polymarket has been given the green light to go live in the USA by the CFTC.”

This would reverse nearly three years of ban by the CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission). The regulator fined the prediction markets provider $1.4 million for running an unregistered derivatives trading platform. 

Although Polymarket faced more bans overseas, it didn’t stop it from gaining market dominance.  

Prediction market space heats up

Interestingly, Polymarket has bagged both regulatory and strategic wins in 2025.

Last month, Donald Trump Jr’s 1789 Capital made a strategic investment in the platform and became part of the advisory board. 

Additionally, it partnered with Elon Musk’s X platform and acquired QCEX, a CFTC-licensed clearing house, as part of its U.S. re-entry plans. 

Betting sites, or ‘prediction markets,’ have gained traction for their better accuracy on outcomes of future events compared to media surveys. Hence, collaborations with social media giants like X and others are projected to grow. 

As expected, most of the crypto community welcomed Polymarket’s return to the U.S., calling it ‘huge.’ 

Since its debut in 2020, the platform saw major breakthroughs and market interest during the 2024 U.S. presidential election. 

The market expected it to fade after the elections. On the contrary, however, it has been on a tear even after 2024, with over $15 billion in monthly cumulative trading volume.

That said, the anticipated re-entry into the U.S. markets has renewed the rivalry with Kalshi, another top prediction platform.

In fact, Will LeGate, Polymarket’s growth lead, stated that Kalshi’s regulatory moat doesn’t exist anymore after the CFTC’s greenlight.

The deregulation, especially in the crypto space, has been a key agenda of President Donald Trump.

With no regulatory leverage and fair access, it remains to be seen which platform will dominate the prediction markets.

A Group of Suzhou Engineers Unexpectedly Attain Financial Freedom

In Suzhou, a group of engineers from Lianxun Instruments, a leader in optical communication testing equipment, have achieved remarkable wealth after the company's IPO. Listed just two months ago on the STAR Market, the company's stock price surged approximately 30 times, making it the only A-share stock priced above 2,000 yuan. This surge created substantial fortunes for nearly 100 technical employees who held a collective 15.91% stake through employee stock ownership platforms, valued at over 36 billion yuan at the current market cap. Among them, nearly 40 became billionaires, while even the smallest holdings exceeded 5 million yuan in value. Founded in 2017 by Hu Haiyang, Yang Jian, and Huang Jianjun, Lianxun Instruments was established to address China's reliance on foreign high-end testing instruments. The company grew rapidly with a strong focus on R&D, where technical staff make up nearly 80% of its workforce. Early implementation of employee stock plans helped retain this core talent. The company's explosive growth is fueled by booming AI computing demand, with clients including major global optical module leaders. Its revenue skyrocketed from 276 million yuan in 2023 to 1.194 billion yuan in 2025, turning a profit in 2024. The IPO has also generated massive returns for early investors, including Suzhou's state-owned capital, which saw a hundredfold return. This story reflects a broader trend in China's markets, where technology firms in AI, semiconductors, and optics are creating new wealth, rewarding engineers and technical teams who are now central to modern capital-driven success stories, marking a shift from previous eras dominated by internet and real estate tycoons.

NVIDIA's Annual 'Most Dangerous' Paper: AI Self-Replicating Code, Unlimited Leveling and Evolution

NVIDIA's "Red Queen Gödel Machine" (RQGM) paper proposes a potentially groundbreaking AI self-evolution framework. It breaks from the long-stalled concept of the "Gödel Machine," which required mathematically proven beneficial self-modifications, by adopting an evolutionary approach. The core, and most striking, innovation is that the AI does not just evolve its own code in a static environment. Instead, it co-evolves both the "student" (the task-performing agent) and the "examiner" (the evaluation system that judges it). This creates a dynamic, recursive self-improvement loop inspired by the biological "Red Queen Hypothesis"—where continuous adaptation is needed just to maintain relative fitness. The mechanism operates in epochs. Within an epoch, a fixed examiner evaluates all candidate code variants. At epoch boundaries, a new, potentially more rigorous examiner can replace the old one, but only if it proves statistically superior on a held-out "ground truth" dataset. This "controlled utility evolution" aims to ensure progress is measurable and grounded. The paper demonstrates RQGM's effectiveness across three domains: 1. **Code Generation:** It achieved a 71.7% test-set pass rate (improving over a 69.9% SOTA) while using 1.35-1.72x fewer computational tokens. 2. **Paper Writing:** In a subjective task, the co-evolved writer and reviewer achieved a 40.5% acceptance rate by a fixed human panel, up from 21.8%. 3. **Math Proofs:** It evolved more accurate graders (at 3x lower cost) and higher-scoring provers. Notably, RQGM also mitigated a known LLM bias where AI reviewers favor AI-generated content. By specifically rewarding reviewers that correctly rejected AI-written papers from a historical pool, the evolved system achieved impartiality while maintaining 80% accuracy. The research has sparked significant discussion about the acceleration of Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI). Some, like Anthropic's Jack Clark, have predicted a high probability of highly autonomous, self-evolving AI emerging by 2028. The paper suggests that when an AI begins to design its own evaluators and push itself toward ever-higher standards in a recursive loop, it may be taking a fundamental step toward redefining intelligence and autonomy.

Apple and the Power Rebalancing with 'The Microns': Dissecting the Profit Ledger Behind the iPhone

The article analyzes the shifting profit dynamics and power balance between Apple and memory suppliers like Micron within the iPhone supply chain. It highlights a social media post criticizing Apple for raising iPhone prices while blaming memory chip cost increases, despite historically paying suppliers like Micron very little. An estimated iPhone 18 cost breakdown is referenced. Historically, memory was a minor cost component. In 2017's iPhone X, memory accounted for only about 1.6-2.3% of the price, with Apple capturing nearly 50% net profit. Over time, memory's share of the Bill-of-Materials (BOM) cost has grown significantly, reaching an estimated 12-15% for the iPhone 17 series. The core driver of this change is soaring demand for memory from the AI industry, particularly for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) and AI servers, which is diverting production capacity and squeezing supply for consumer electronics. Memory manufacturers, after enduring periods of low profits, now hold greater pricing power. This is reflected in their recent strong financials, like Micron's 84.6% gross margin. Apple CEO Tim Cook initially described the memory price pressure as unprecedented in his 40-year career, later calling it a "once-in-a-century flood," before Apple announced price hikes across several product lines, causing a significant stock drop. Elon Musk echoed Cook's sentiment about the dramatic cost surge. The article concludes that the era of memory suppliers being at the mercy of Apple's pricing power has temporarily reversed, thanks to AI-driven demand. It notes Apple is reportedly seeking to diversify its supply chain, including exploring chips from China's CXMT.

Conversation with the Founder of 42 Macro: The Fed's 'Boiling the Frog Slowly' and the K-Shaped Economy

In a conversation with Anthony Pompliano, Darius Dale, founder of 42 Macro, discusses the Federal Reserve's monetary policy and the K-shaped U.S. economy. Dale characterizes new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh as a "dove in hawk's clothing," expecting the Fed to signal or enact policy tightening in the coming quarters to create room for later easing. He argues current economic signals, including high deficit spending, debt monetization, and credit growth, strongly indicate inflation is not on a credible path back to 2%, forcing the Fed to act. The discussion highlights the stark "K-shaped" economic reality. While top earners, buoyed by massive cash savings (up ~$8 trillion since pre-pandemic), continue robust spending, those at the bottom face severe financial strain, with delinquency rates on consumer loans reaching crisis-era highs. Dale attributes much of the current social and political anxiety to this divergence, driven by the "Cantillon effects" of monetary expansion, which disproportionately benefits asset owners. He emphasizes that in this environment of "financial repression," individuals must participate in asset markets to avoid being left behind. On equities, Dale notes a rotation from the "Magnificent Seven" tech giants into broader AI-exposed companies, while warning that the tech giants' massive capital expenditure cycles could eventually puncture over-optimistic cash flow projections. Dale concludes by stressing that the core desire across all economic strata is simply the dignity to provide for one's family, a goal currently undermined by systemic policies that act as a "wealth siphon" from the bottom to the top.
