When one speaks to the general public, it's better to show a VERY SHORT definition. prediction market = a prediction is traded on a market. 0--100 price = 0--100 probability of that outcome Of course, the scholars will like to have a more elaborate definition, but for the general public, let's aim at simplicity... which the prediction markets are all about. :) Good presentation.

One remark. When one speaks to the general public, it’s better to show a VERY SHORT definition.

prediction market = a prediction is traded on a market.
0–100 price = 0–100 probability of that outcome

Of course, the scholars will like to have a more elaborate definition, but for the general public, let’s aim at simplicity… which the prediction markets are all about. :)
