Many people initially understand prediction markets and habitually categorize them as gambling. But if you truly delve into what StandX is building, you'll find that the logic is completely different—it's more like a set of behavioral finance infrastructure. Prediction markets aggregate participants' information and expectations to create a discovery mechanism for true probabilities. Whether it's politics, sports, or cryptocurrency asset prices, participants express their views through predictions, and the market price itself becomes an efficient information aggregator. This is fundamentally different from pure probability games. It incentivizes the flow of information and the revelation of genuine signals, which is at the core of modern financial markets. So don't simply see prediction markets as an upgraded form of gambling—they are actually reshaping the way information is priced.

Well... to put it simply, it turns the market into a machine of informational truth, much more advanced than gambling. --- StandX's approach is actually about letting market prices speak, more reliable than those self-righteous analysts. --- Finally, someone has clarified this: it's not gambling, but a process of discovering the truth. --- This idea is indeed brilliant—turning each participant's judgment into data, allowing the market to automatically find answers. --- Don't treat prediction markets as casinos, everyone. They are upgrading financial infrastructure. --- Information aggregation is indeed interesting; it's much more transparent than traditional methods, quite fascinating. --- Got it, got it. Prediction markets = collective wisdom pricing mechanism, not just a simple probability game. --- This is exactly what Web3 should be doing, rather than just hype every day.

Hey, someone finally explained it clearly. It's not the gambling logic; information aggregation is the core.

Buddy, this is the key point. Prediction markets are about commodifying human collective intelligence; gambling is purely a product of overactive imagination. Information pricing, hmm... sounds虚, but it's definitely more transparent than traditional finance. I like the logic behind StandX. It's a true probability discovery mechanism, not a gambler's paradise. Prediction markets can't take off because most people haven't figured it out, right? Anyway, I believe in this direction. The more efficient the flow of information, the more genuine the market. This is the right path.

Hey, finally someone has explained this thoroughly. Previously, the comment section was full of "It's gambling again," which was really annoying... Information pricing, now that's the core, brother.
