Kyoto Rokkaku Rokujuan is good if on a budget. Traditional food, traditional place, can get a booking. Good for photos.

1h proxy, bps on dollars traded is too low and doesn’t survive shrinking the universe so not very actionable as a signal.

To somewhat defend Kalshi: As seen in the fee schedule. Maker rebate + taker fee net to 0 for eligible participants. It’s more likely to be another trader who wants to pump their own volume than Kalshi themselves. Regarding the 1 cent bet being counted as a whole dollar - using notional volume is very common in options. Usually you just count premium traded and notional traded as different numbers. This doesn’t feel so bad to me, they just picked the prettier number and haven’t done anything very uncommon in the options world. This said they probably should be banning people who wash trade and adding an asterisk to the volume number. I think it’s gone a bit far to imply they are wash trading themselves which is much less likely and very different than failing to ban / detect those who do it.
