Recently, I have seen many voices discussing rights protection around a certain prediction market project, with the main issue seemingly pointing to the post-adjustment of the financing amount. Interestingly, during the project's fundraising period, I hardly came across any related information, but during the rights protection phase, information was overwhelming. The stark contrast in information asymmetry is quite notable.

Honestly, if I had seen this project during the fundraising period, given my luck and resource situation, I would probably be an outsider. This incident has made me reevaluate the prediction market sector.

Prediction markets combined with AI are indeed worth continued attention this year. Prediction markets inherently have advantages in information aggregation and price discovery mechanisms, while AI's potential in data analysis and decision support should not be underestimated. Such innovative applications could become important directions in the development of Web3.

The information gap is really a killer. During fundraising, everything is silent, and once it's done, the big show of rights protection begins. This routine is all too familiar. Come on, adjusting the funding amount afterward? How little do they think of investors? Predicting the market with AI indeed has potential, but the premise is that the project team isn't lying, right? Haha. This track is quite interesting, but I'm just worried it will be another round of cutting the leeks. Information asymmetry is really frustrating. The big players have already jumped on board, and we're still just watching the show.

It's the same old trick. When raising funds, everything is quiet; when something goes wrong, the whole internet knows. The information gap is really incredible.

Once again, during the fundraising period, no one paid attention, but during the rights protection phase, the hype was at its peak... This information gap is really incredible, they've been completely exploited and cleaned out. The prediction market track is indeed very popular, but the pitfalls are also real. Adjusting the funding amount after the fact is outrageous. Combining AI with prediction markets definitely has potential, but the key is to see who can survive until then. Once again, we've been harvested. Next time, I'll be more careful. The information barrier during the fundraising stage is truly ridiculous; ordinary people simply can't access it. But to be honest, the logic of prediction markets is correct, it's just that the execution layer is full of tricks.

Information asymmetry is always the fastest way to make money, but the ones who suffer are retail investors like us with no connections. Silence is golden during fundraising, but when it comes to rights protection, it's all over the place. This routine has been played out. Predictive markets combined with AI sound good, but honestly, we need to first understand who is actually making money from these projects. I just want to ask, how much can we recover in this round of rights protection? Or is it another story that ends without results? Predictive markets are very imaginative, but I'm afraid it's just another hype play based on concepts. Seeing the two faces before and after airdrops is quite common.

Information asymmetry works this way: early entrants are always a minority. What can retail investors like us do? No news during fundraising, but when defending rights, it's overwhelming. I've seen this script too many times, haha. Predicting the market with AI does have some merit; it all depends on who can truly implement it. This round, we're about to fall into a trap again, but we still have to play. Funding amounts are adjusted afterward... this operation is outrageous. If I had known it would be like this, I might as well have gone all in on Bitcoin. This thing called information asymmetry, it always owes me an early warning.
