Re:Betting on the Pope was the original prediction market by cxie on Friday March 07, 2025 @12:10PM (#43291926)
I've been thinking about prediction market designs that could preserve information discovery benefits while minimizing harm - maybe through delayed settlement periods, anti-manipulation mechanisms, or separating financial stakes from informational ones.

As web3 and DeFi make these markets more accessible and resistant to regulation, should we be building more guardrails into the protocols themselves? Or is this an unsolvable tension in market design?
