Prediction markets are evolving fast. Three angles catching my attention lately:
First up—dedicated L1 infrastructure. Why? Because prediction protocols need throughput and finality that general-purpose chains struggle with during high-volume events. We're talking sub-second settlement when markets go wild.
Then there's AI integration. Not just for market-making algorithms, but for outcome verification and fraud detection. Smart contracts meet machine learning—could reshape how we validate real-world events on-chain.
And here's the wild card: tokenizing prediction market positions as RWAs. Imagine derivatives of prediction outcomes trading as regulated assets. Liquidity unlocked, institutional capital flows in. That's when things get interesting.
The infrastructure layer is heating up. Worth monitoring which projects nail the execution.

Sub-second settlement sounds great, but the real question is how many people can actually get their money before the counterparty runs away.

Prediction markets are hot right now, but very few can actually deliver. The RWA angle is indeed interesting; institutionalization is necessary to attract institutional capital.

Sub-second settlement sounds pretty amazing, but is it really achievable... It still seems to depend on which L1 can get it running first.

The prediction market sector is indeed active, but to be honest, it's really the RWA part that can truly attract institutions...

Sub-second settlement? Sounds nice, but who really needs it to be that fast? It's mostly just hype.
