Understanding Prediction Markets

Prediction markets, like Polymarket, function as decentralized platforms where users can trade contracts based on the outcome of future events. The probability assigned to a specific outcome represents the aggregate belief of market participants about the likelihood of that event occurring. A probability of 0.50 (50%) indicates an even chance, while probabilities closer to 1.00 (100%) suggest a higher likelihood, and those closer to 0.00 (0%) suggest a lower likelihood. The price of a contract naturally fluctuates based on new information and changing sentiment, moving towards 1.00 as the event approaches and its outcome becomes clearer, or towards 0.00 if it becomes unlikely.
