Prediction Markets Become Gen Z’s Crypto Playground
-

Gen Z is betting on certainty, not hype.Average salary: $39K (well below living wage)
Altcoins & meme tokens: dead capital after post-2024 crash
New focus: on-chain prediction markets
Platforms like Polymarket & Kalshi offer quick, transparent bets on real-world events. No narrative, no unlocks, no centralization delays.
Result? Mass adoption among younger traders—awareness is 4x higher among Gen Z vs Gen X.
Crypto speculation hasn’t ended—it’s just evolving for a generation optimizing for probability over promises.

I will not call them traders. More like gamblers.
