Isn't it that we are having a lot of fun recently? However I still think there's some more scope for fun on Stacker News even if we gotta borrow it from outside.
Last year it was about the SN item counts and that was controversial. I thought of creating some markets for item counts this year but you know I can't afford controversy anymore.
Anyways coming to the point, this year it won't be controversy induced Stacker News PREDYX Market because ....
You gotta win it 'Yes', boys and bots both won't help you.
However, zaps and downzaps, preferably boosts will definitely help cross the target.
The target is higher now because the stakes just shot up yesterday...for the first time ever SN distributed more than a million Sats in rewards.
So what records are made to be broken...
Will Stacker News hit 2M sats in Daily Rewards on any single day in 2026?
Let the Sats flow like wine on SN! (sorry @siggy47)
Yes is likely, but in 2026 🤔
Best of Luck!
Just need someone to come on here and be ready to defend a really unpopular opinion.
What's the "really unpopular opinion"?
oh, i don't know, but we seem to get big rewards pools when we have people who post something that pisses off someone else to a great degree.
it requires more than pissing someone off, it also requires someone to white knight the other side, either with boosts or zaps
Have faith in boost and zap warriors, they aren't shielded for nothing. Downzap demons will be sent packing.
Why do prediction markets even exist
so that we can speculate on any topic.
Tagging everyone lest anyone should complain 🙏

there should be a way to arbitrage this:
e.g., if like me you average 2-3% of the rewards pool, the sic gainz from a 2m pool would be 50k... so I should be willing to pay up to about that on "no" to hedge myself...?
Makes sense to me. You may as well try it.
I bet 500 sats!
Ahhha! Caught you bull hunter!
oh no, I'm busted!
also: BEAUTIFUL, look at that instant profit. Imma such a great trader
You're not busted. This is a very good degen example to hide your bet or promote the opposite to maximise profits.
You must be very confident in the Yes side then.
He's betting No but supporting Yes so that he gets good odds. We can learn a lot from denni, can't we?
I'll find a way to complain regardless
Your commie complain shall be entertained. Come say captain (will tranfer my loser tag very soon upon you).
PREDYX looks solid and trustable. Just deposited 10k sats
welcome to the party; we have fun over there
What's your username?
I say YES
It’s pretty even.
Cool market. I have to say No though.
When did you turn a bear?
Yesterday was 1.6M or something, ifit could be that much on any day, there will be some who will make it for us like last year ;)... The Gameplan!
Fun... very gameable but I don't know if it's gameable in a profitable fashion
Not quite gameable without a federation. But you know federations aren't forming on SN. So not gameable, the liquidity on the market is only 20k. I intentionally did it low.
