Video Deep Dive on the State of Prediction Markets

About the Bounty

If you have not spent the last few months under a rock, you know that prediction markets have taken over, with major platforms like Kalshi crossing $2.3B in weekly volume last week.

Onchain prediction markets enable you to buy and sell yes/no event contracts on real-world outcomes like elections, sports, inflation, weather, and economic releases. Each contract’s price reflects the market’s probability of the event, allowing users to speculate or hedge against uncertainty with deep, global liquidity.

They are quickly becoming people’s primary sources for information, purely driven by capital markets.

In this bounty, we are inviting you to bring out the camera and dive deep into the world of prediction markets. Your mission is to create a visual deep dive into the State of Prediction Markets on Solana and crypto at large. The ideal submission will be:

1. A talking-head style/storytelling video that would walk the viewer through the current ecosystem landscape of onchain prediction markets.

2. Diving deep into the core concept of prediction markets, different mechanisms, and the entire ecosystem, commenting on recent updates across platforms, new projects, recent news, state-of-the-art innovation, ideas for the future, RFPs for builders, and potential opportunities.

3. An engaging, fun-to-watch, and easy-to-understand resource for anyone to learn about prediction markets, recent developments, and the future.

4. Suggesting ideas for improvement, interesting product ideas, and opportunities for new startups.

5. Featuring one or more people vs just being an animated video
