The number of prediction markets on Polymarket has reached an absurd level.
Of course, most of these markets don’t have much liquidity—you can’t just throw in $10,000 at will. But this actually gives us an informal "pre-market guide": a way to see how the public views a particular project. Want to know market sentiment? These prediction markets are like a thermometer. They may not be deep, but they’re broad enough. You can catch projects that haven’t even launched on mainstream exchanges yet and see how much anticipation the public has for them. In a way, this is more authentic than any research report—because people here are voting with real money.

Poor liquidity is fine, I'm just here to see how people are gambling anyway. It's much more reliable than listening to those useless analysts talk nonsense.

The liquidity may be poor, but this thing really reveals people's true intentions—it's more honest than any research report.

I agree with the real money voting part, but there are also many pitfalls. In low-liquidity markets, there are all kinds of information asymmetry traps.
