The true appeal of Polymarket lies not in the gambling experience, but in assigning probabilities to all events. From political elections and sports competitions to technological breakthroughs and economic forecasts, as long as it can be priced, it can be traded. This quantification and liquidity of reality is at the core of prediction markets — they are not casinos, but hubs of information.

In simple terms, it's about turning uncertainty into tradable assets, which is the real innovation.

At the end of the day, it's still a pricing game; informational advantage is everything.

Pricing everything as probabilities sounds mind-blowing but somehow makes sense... Can this thing really extract the hidden wisdom of the market?

Indeed, once the future is priced in, the entire world becomes a trading pair. It's quite profound.
