Markets are resolved transparently using the UMA optimistic oracle protocol, with prices expressed as binary yes/no shares. A forthcoming peer-to-peer betting feature will use AI validation to vet user-created wagers for objectivity and verifiability before matching counterparties and locking funds in escrow.

Precog is a decentralized prediction market protocol built on Base (Ethereum L2) that allows users to trade on future outcomes across a wide range of topics including science, economics, and politics.
