The Polymarket prediction platform is experiencing quite severe FOMO issues. I feel certain that there is no foothold there—my ranking is only at #1,4 million, and the actual chances are almost zero.

Instead, you might look at less FOMO-driven platforms like PredictDotFun or OpinionLabsXYZ. They usually have smaller trading volumes but rankings only in the few thousands—clearly more understandable and much more feasible.

If you're also feeling frustrated with the mainstream prediction "battlefield," consider these alternative options. They offer more realistic opportunities for those who want to participate but don't want to be beaten from the start.

Ranked 1.4 million? Are you playing or gambling, brother? It's no different from just giving away money. --- Poly is now a playground for big players, retail investors really only have to take the beating. --- With such poor liquidity on small platforms, slippage would be a killer... --- Instead of queuing up there and getting cut, it's better to research some niche tracks yourself. --- Honestly, Polymarket is just a wealth transfer device; new retail investors really shouldn't go there. --- It seems like these platforms are all similar; the main thing is whether you can judge the right direction. --- This guy makes some sense, but small platforms aren't necessarily less risky. --- Being so far down the rankings is really hopeless; better to wait for the right moment to jump in.

Being outside the top million in rankings is really not interesting; it's better to go to smaller platforms and take a risk --- Polymarket has too many people, a place where retail investors lose everything; smaller platforms actually have more opportunities --- Rather than being cannon fodder in Polymarket, it's better to take a shot with PredictDotFun, at least there's some room for imagination --- That's right, big platforms have high traffic but complex mechanisms; niche platforms are better for bottom-fishing --- The official battlefield is already a playground for whales; let's go to edge platforms instead --- Everyone has swept through Polymarket; it's really not interesting to play there now --- A million ranking means nothing; it's better to find small platforms that are just starting up and reliable --- Your suggestion is pretty good; switching to small platforms can indeed avoid big pitfalls --- The broth in Polymarket has been drunk up, leaving little behind; OpinionLabsXYZ and similar platforms might actually have some potential

Ranked 1,140,000 and still want to play prediction? Isn't that just a freebie haha PredictDotFun indeed has few users, but liquidity is also a concern... Polymarket is getting intense, better try small platforms to test the waters Honestly, predicting small coins is just a gambler's game, don't overthink it Have you heard of opinionlabsxyz? Has anyone made money there? This kind of reverse selection is actually quite clever; big platforms are indeed easy to be cut off
