Create your own prediction market in 2 days 🎉

We’ve been working hard on Veil’s market creation feature for the last few weeks. We’ll be launching on March 13th, and this will easily be Veil’s biggest upgrade since coming online in January. Any Veil user will be able to create their own prediction market—and make money from others participating!

We’re going to keep this update relatively light, because we’ll have so much to share on Wednesday. But in the meantime, here are a few features of market creation we’re excited about:

  • You’ll be able to create draft markets for free. Update details of your market or change the color scheme as much as you want before activating it (i.e. persisting it to Augur).
  • You’ll also be able to collect orders for your draft markets before they’re activated. Trades won’t be executed until the market is active, but you’ll be able to gather commitments and gauge interest in your market without paying to create it!
  • And you’ll be able to make money from markets you create. You can charge participants a fee when they settle and have the option of sharing trading fees with Veil as well.

We’re incredibly excited to see what the community creates! Can’t wait to participate and create your own prediction markets? 👉 Sign up to be a launch partner 👈
