I built an interactive simulation showing a paradox that applies to markets and life: even when the average outcome is positive, most individuals can still lose over time. Players bet on coin flips where winning gives +50% and losing takes -40% of their current capital. This seemingly favorable setup (positive expected value) hides a brutal truth: despite the mathematical advantage, most players eventually go broke. You can adjust win/loss percentages, number of players, and other parameters to explore how different conditions affect outcomes. Try it: https://solopov.dev/non-ergodic-coin-game |
