How Bitcoin Prediction Markets Will Change Elections.
Bitcoin prediction markets have emerged as a powerful new force that will fundamentally change how we forecast elections. Unlike traditional polling, these markets reveal real-time insights backed by actual money at stake. In this episode, James Pierog breaks down how prediction markets work, why they're more accurate than polls, and what makes Bitcoin the perfect foundation for this revolution in electoral forecasting. Learn why major media outlets are starting to pay attention to prediction markets, how they could prevent election manipulation, and what this means for the future of democracy. We dive deep into the technology, the game theory, and the fascinating implications of combining Bitcoin's unstoppable nature with the wisdom of crowds. Whether you're interested in Bitcoin, elections, or the future of forecasting, this conversation will change how you think about predicting political outcomes.
