Nowadays, it's very hard to find very good and reliable data sources for what's actually true and happening in the world.
It's very hard to know if, uh, what I'm seeing on Twitter, is it right or is it bots or who is writing this? What prediction markets do is they kind of like take away the noise, and you can really look at a, like, forecast that's come from millions of people putting money on the line and putting money where their mouth is to really see, "I believe this is going to happen.
I have a lot of conviction," and, and kind of aggregating all of that to see, to see the future.
So even if people are not trading in the markets, actually, the most important part of these markets is the single point of data, the price that comes from these markets, which can benefit anyone, and I think that's the most important.
If there's one thing people know about prediction markets, I really hope they, they know that if they wanna know anything about the future, it is the best way to get a correct, unbiased forecast.
