Smarter Together: How Crowd Wisdom Beats Expert Predictions When fans, analysts, and everyday viewers make their own independent guesses, something amazing happens — the average prediction often turns out more accurate than what a single expert says.

Why? Because diverse insights — from hard stats to gut feelings — come together, and biases cancel out. It’s collective intelligence in action.

That’s the power behind HedgeCo — a platform where people forecast real-world outcomes through contests on politics, finance, and global events.

Trust the crowd. Predict with confidence. Experience the future of forecasting!

Walz said he was an early adopter of GIS software in the 1990s, using it, among other things, to teach high school students about the Holocaust. He had his students build maps of the contemporary world using different layers of data that scholars believed could factor into modern-day genocides. “They started looking at food insecurity, potential drought, just like the UN was doing around famine early warning,” Walz said.  In 1993, he asked his sophomores where they thought the next genocide might happen, based on the geographic data. They pinpointed Rwanda. The following year, the Rwandan Genocide occurred. The New York Times interviewed some of the students involved in the project in 2008, when Walz was a U.S. congressman.

Sounds like a VP primed to be effectivealtruism predictionmarket-pilled, for better or worse.

Elon Musk’s X Partners with Polymarket on Prediction Platform

Hold onto your crypto wallets, folks! Elon Musk's X is teaming up with @Polymarket to shake up the way we predict the future (and possibly our next coffee choice). Imagine combining prediction markets with AI analytics—it's like putting spice in your ramen; it just elevates everything!

“Trump now leading Kamala by 3% in betting markets. More accurate than polls, as actual money is on the line.” - Elon Musk

This partnership is set to allocate tons of engineering brainpower to enhance market functionality. Oh, and it’s also expected to boost transaction volumes in the blockchain universe—appreciate those digital coins now, people!

And wait, there's more! Polymarket plans to tackle stablecoin usage, which means your stonks could get even *stonkier*. As the Polygon network gets a sprinkle of Polymarket magic, we might just see crypto trading going through the roof! 🚀📈

But what’s a post without a little intrigue? While traditional prediction markets have often found themselves in a game of cat-and-mouse with regulators, this collab might just bring about innovative solutions faster than you can say "decentralized finance." Shayne Coplan spoke highly of this dynamic duo, hinting at a transformation in the prediction game. Can I get a "News 2.0"? 😏

Curious how this rollercoaster ends? Dive deeper into the full story and let your inner trader digest this potential goldmine: Read the original article on the CCPress.

Prediction Markets and Crypto Betting on Assassination

Crypto project Augur is a recently released decentralized application (dApp) that allows users to essentially bet on anything by creating prediction markets. Recently, so-called assassination markets have shown up on Augur for users to bet on whether certain people will be assassinated, including US President Donald Trump, raising questions about the legality and morality of the platform.  

Wanna Bet?

Augur is one of the more prominent and promising crypto projects built on Ethereum; the project raised $5 million through an ICO in 2015 and launched their main network earlier this month. Augur provides users the ability to create prediction markets on just about anything and also allows users to take a financial position in those markets by staking cryptocurrency for a given outcome. The platform provides an interesting new approach to both gambling by taking positions in markets for sporting events or elections for example, as well as allowing users to hedge investments in markets related to asset prices. Augur functions as a decentralized Application (dApp) with no particular user in control of the markets being made or the positions being taken which are paid out through smart contracts.

Thus far the majority of markets and volume on Augur have been on predictions crypto-enthusiasts and the general public would be expected to bet on such as the future price of Ethereum or the winner of the World Cup. According to Predictions.Global, a website that reports statistics on Augur markets, nearly $1.5 million has been staked in markets on the platform at the time of publishing this article and nearly 80% of the total is in the markets for the price of Ether (ETH) and REP (Augur's own crypto token). However, recently several markets have been created for predicting the death of celebrities such as US President Donald Trump, Senator John McCain and actress Betty White.

Source: Augur These so-called assassination markets could be seen as a way to incentivize obviously illegal activities given that users can take a bet on the outcome of the market and then go about making the event occur. It should be noted that there has been little to no activity in these assasination markets to date.  

Assassination Markets Test Decentralized Morality

These questionable prediction markets have caused some to question whether there should be an arbiter deciding what can and can't be predicted on Augur. In fact some sites that provide information about Augur markets, including Prediction.Global, have decided to censor these assassination markets and not display them to users. However, Augur touts itself as fully decentralized and the not-for-profit foundation behind Augur, The Forecast Foundation. It lists on the FAQ page that they have "no power to censor, restrict, or curate markets, orders, trades, positions or resolutions" on the platform. Although there actually was an 'escape hatch' in the code of Augur to allow all the funds in the platform to be frozen in cases of a hack, that 'kill switch' was disabled two weeks after the launch by transferring ownership of the smart contract to a generic address. https://twitter.com/AugurProject/status/1021631296265768960 So now that the training wheels have come off, it will be interesting to see if any increased pressure is put on the platform or the Freedom Foundation to police markets that could lead to illegal activities. The platform itself does have a mechanism for policing contracts by way of users declaring a particular market as "unethical" which negates the opportunity for anyone to gain financially on the market IF that is what the majority of users decide. https://twitter.com/tonigemayel/status/1021479017801629696 So, what Augur has done is transfer the responsibility of determining morality of a particular market over to the crowd of users. This is the benefit AND the risk with fully decentralized platforms; when you remove a trusted authority from the equation of financial decisions, you're putting trust that the majority of users will do the right thing.

Along with the tweet, they added an image that clearly predicts and supports Brazil as the winner of World Cup 2018!

Bodhi’s tweet | Source: Twitter

Bodhi aims to build an autonomous, credible, and scalable prediction market that integrates the application of a functional prediction market on a global scale to further optimize the making of decisions. Bodhi is also one of the first and largest decentralized applications running on the Qtum [QTUM] blockchain.

Recently Bodhi had announced its plans to launch a working Decentralized Application [DApp] on the Qtum [QTUM] Mainnet.

Introducing PredictionMarkt

Hello World!

We are proud to announce a new prediction market trading platform.

Introducing PredictionMarkt  —  a trading platform that allows you to make money on predictions about future events by trading shares in the potential outcomes.

Introducing PredictionMarkt

PredictionMarkt is a centralized, Ethereum-based platform for betting on the outcome of events in areas such as Business, Technology, Finance, Sports and Politics.

What are Prediction Markets?

Prediction markets (also known as predictive markets, information markets, decision markets or virtual markets) are exchange-traded markets created for the purpose of trading the outcome of events.

Any individual or organization can tap into the “wisdom of the crowd” to ask a question or predict the result of any event.

In a single market, we ask a specific question about a future event with a few potential outcomes. Some markets feature questions that have simple “Yes” or “No” answers, while others offer multiple possible outcomes.

Shares of each outcome could be sold or purchased with Ethereum for a fraction of the price, between 0 and 100%, which reflects the probability of the potential outcome. PredictionMarkt participants can trade shares with the other users of PredictioMarkt, making profit without waiting for the outcome of the event to happen.

When the actual outcome is determined, its shares are converted to 100% of the price and the owners make profit.

How is PredictionMarkt different from other platforms?

PredictionMarkt has three distinctly different characteristics:

We provide centrally-managed prediction markets. This simplifies the platform and increases safety of our users by removing many risks such as fraud and outcome disputes.

We don’t charge fees on the winnings or any internal transactions. The only time our users are charged is when they withdraw funds from their account.

We keep the process simple by providing trading in the Ethereum currency. We don’t expose our users to additional risks by creating our own crypto tokens.

What’s next?

Going forward, we’ll be working on the features targeted at increasing market liquidity and precision of the prediction results. We’ll be creating more markets in more categories, let us know if there is a specific market category you are missing on the platform.

We are also interested in exploring partnership opportunities. Please contact us on Telegram if you are interested!
