summary
Prediction markets are fascinating DeFi primitives that allow users to bet on the outcome of future events. Unlike AMM-based prediction markets (like Polymarket's CLAMM), this implementation uses a simpler pot-based parimutuel system - perfect for learning smart contract development or bootstrapping your own prediction market protocol.

What We're Building

  • Binary prediction markets (YES/NO outcomes)
  • Pot-based parimutuel betting (proportional payouts)
  • ERC20 stablecoin integration (USDC, USDT, DAI)
  • Admin-controlled resolution (oracle-free for simplicity)
  • Multi-chain deployment (6 EVM chains)

Tech Stack

  • Solidity ^0.8.20 - Smart contract language
  • Foundry - Development framework (forge, cast, anvil)
  • OpenZeppelin patterns - Security best practices
  • Slither/Mythril compatible - Static analysis ready
