Hidden deep in Venezuela’s jungle, Salto Duruhuaya is a striking waterfall known for curtain-like cascade over granite rock.
Far from the usual paths, it remains a quiet, lesser-known natural gem

It’s nice to see smaller businesses getting access to ways of protecting themselves financially that were once mainly available to big companies.
Unexpected events can hit a business hard, and @Kalshi is opening up a whole new way to manage those risks.
Sportsbooks can't do this.
This becomes possible through markets.
This could make a real difference for the little guy.

An LA hospitality group runs 25 bars, many of them right by Dodger Stadium. Every extra playoff game means packed bars. An early exit means lost revenue they were counting on.
So they hedged it. They put $60,000 on Kalshi on the Dodgers *not* making the World Series.
The Dodgers lost the NLCS to the Brewers. The position returned nearly 2x, helping cover the playoff business that *never* came.
A Columbia law professor told Fortune it works like “a form of bespoke insurance.”

A baseball team losing could cost local businesses thousands. But one LA hospitality group found a clever solution.
Knowing a Dodgers defeat would mean fewer customers and lost revenue, they put $60,000 on the team losing through @Kalshi
When the Dodgers lost, the trade returned nearly $120,000, helping make up for the missing business. This is a whole new way for businesses to protect themselves against financial risks they can't easily control.

Hit a hole-in-one. Free mattresses if the team wins. You went to an insurance company that specialized in calculating the odds. That was probably until 2006.
Then it moved to Las Vegas, where ticket brokers holding inventory for one team would bet against that team to hedge.
Then, by 2018, it moved to online sportsbooks.
Now it's happening on prediction markets.
An LA-based restaurant group put $60,000 on Kalshi before the NLCS that the Dodgers would lose to the Brewers.
Why? They calculated that a Dodgers World Series run would bring in an extra $120,000. No run, $0.
So they hedged. Guaranteed $60,000 either way.
The Dodgers lost. The $60,000 grossed $120,000.
Why an exchange and not a sportsbook?
At a sportsbook, your price is locked.
The only way out is a cash-out, and that number is set by the book's algorithm.
On an exchange, there's thousands of competing buyers on the other side. The price moves. It's a reflection of the market, and you can take it or leave it at any point.
The speculators who believed the Dodgers would win provided the liquidity the sportsbook never did.
Marketplaces like Kalshi are giving businesses the exchange that prize indemnity and sportsbooks never could.
Because the other side is real.

AI has made creating images easier than ever. So why does everything look exactly the same?
Same styles. Same layouts. Same artificial look.
Now @cocoailabs is tackling the problem with Vyb, an AI that uses your actual branding, photos and fonts to create designs you can edit layer by layer.
This is the kind of AI design needs.

I launched the first image and video generation models at Google, and kept asking why all AI designs look the same.
AI has brought us the WORST era of design.
It made content creation effortless, but it also made 90% of it look painfully generic.
My co-founder and I spent 2 years building in stealth to change that.
Meet Vyb, the first AI design model that understands your taste like a designer would.
RT + comment your website URL and we’ll make your first design.

I think we’re about to fall in love with home robots.
Meet Voxel, a little robotic butler that can tidy up, fetch things and even look after your plants.
What makes @roboticscorp different is that they’re designing a robot you’d actually enjoy living with.
Only 999 first-edition units are planned,
and I want one!
