I'm very new to prediction markets but am seeing the light as to how powerful they are! Are there any conditions or requirements that make the PM function with more accuracy like a certain level of traffic or participation to create a critical mass? Worried that if we launch one it might not get enought traffic. Thanks in advance. David David, I’m very interesed in the brainstorming comments re: repackaging other insurance/contingent goods.
