Sessions
Audience-driven roundtables on unsolved challenges in prediction markets: who resolves the outcome, where liquidity comes from, attracting traders to these markets, new use cases for prediction markets and more.
At the prediction markets community hub, expect animated discussions that go beyond the surface. This talk will give a flavor of what attendees can expect by being there.
Prediction markets have proved remarkably effective at forecasting sports and world events, but their greatest value will be improving decisions.
In this talk, we’ll explore decision markets: prediction markets used to make choices. We’ll explore futarchy to optimise metrics, opportunity markets to filter through options, risk pricing to evaluate threats such as protocol failures, and distilled human judgement to scale human evaluation.
