Pentagon's "Pizza Index" Rebooted, Suspicious Insider Entry on U.S.-Venezuela Conflict-Related Wager

1 hours ago

**December 9 Update** Per PolyBeats monitoring, the Pentagon Pizza Index—long viewed as a "barometer" of U.S. military activity—operates on this core logic: When the Pentagon’s high-level command center or war room is managing a major, sudden international crisis or military deployment, staff face extended work hours. Late-night shifts typically lead to bulk pizza orders for dinner. Since the evening of December 6, the index has reactivated again, running for several hours. However, the probability tied to the predicted "December 12/31 drug ship strike?" has not shifted significantly, and no suspected insider traders have been identified entering the market. Still, trends in other related bets are notable. In the market for **"Will the U.S. have military contact with Venezuela before December 31?"**, two traders with highly suspicious profiles are making aggressive, concentrated bets: - **methebestss**: 12 hours ago, he deposited $6,000 into his account—his first and only transaction on the platform—and bought 20,389 "Yes" shares at an average price of 30 cents. - **smaugvision** (more aggressive): 19 hours ago, he deposited over $40,000 and simultaneously bought "Yes" shares for the December 9, 15, and 31 timelines, with a total open position exceeding $20,000. He also allocated over $8,000 to two other Venezuela-related wagers: "Will the U.S. military enter Venezuela before December 31?" and "Will the U.S. invade Venezuela before December 31?". Both traders used non-crypto fiat deposits (their usual method) and concentrated nearly all funds on Venezuela military-related timelines—behavior that is highly focused and targeted. Currently, all the above wagers have probabilities below 30%.

The issuance of US short-term zero-coupon bonds is nearing its historical high, indicating that the US debt crisis is escalating.

**December 9 – Per The Kobeissi Letter, the U.S. Treasury has issued a record $25.4 trillion in T-Bills over the past 12 months. (T-Bills are short-term zero-coupon bonds with maturities of one year or less.) This pushes total Treasury issuance to a record $36.6 trillion, with T-Bills now accounting for 69.4% of total U.S. debt issuance—nearing a historical high.** **The trend means the U.S. government is increasingly relying on short-term (a few months) debt to finance long-term obligations. As a result, public debt interest payments now closely track the Federal Reserve’s policy rate. If inflation rebounds and the Fed is forced to hike rates again, interest costs will surge to unprecedented levels.** **The U.S. debt crisis is worsening.**

Kalshi CEO: Competition with Polymarket Resembles a Sports Star Showdown, Driving Industry Advancement

December 9th, Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour told a podcast that competition with rival Polymarket has pushed both companies to accelerate development. Mansour compared the two firms’ rivalry to NFL quarterbacks Tom Brady vs. Eli Manning’s head-to-head matchups and soccer superstars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo’s longstanding feud. “Without Polymarket, we wouldn’t have pushed marketing and product development this hard,” he said. “This competition will help us grow the prediction market industry’s reach, hit milestones we otherwise couldn’t have reached, and ultimately benefit users long-term.” Founded in 2018, Kalshi last week announced partnerships with CNN and CNBC, raising $1 billion in funding at a $10 billion valuation. Rival Polymarket—launched in 2020—hit a $13.5 billion valuation in November.
