That makes sense. I'm trying to think through how to save you any manual work.

That's very nice of you and a natural view. I know that I didn't start working on my prediction market for a long time since I believed it's not going to scale anyway.

I believe there aren't a lot of projects around this because of this problem or assumption.

But I don't want to scale "to the moon". I just want to build something that can be improved over time. Show what works and what doesn't work. Keep it simple. Premature optimization is the root of all evil :)

Also, this manual intervention doesn't scale across markets. But it does scale within a market. I just need to make the decision once per market and then every trade can get settled. And if I have the problem that there are too many markets: That's a good thing! This means there is indeed a lot of demand.

And with a lot more demand, a lot more ideas will come - at least that's my hope, haha

I guess the risk opens up between 1) and 2), if someone uses a bunch of different accounts to set the wrong majority view.

Yep

That's all very interesting. I don't have many outlets to think through these kinds of problems, so it's fun to bounce my ideas off of you. I know you had already thought through all those issues.

I'm glad you're not making perfect the enemy of completed.

Most likely not through all of them, so keep them coming :) It's also good to see others having the same thought process. Gives me confidence that what I am thinking does not have some obvious flaws.

Sometimes I still feel like I am
