Guidelines

Consider the following guidelines when proposing.

Never rush to propose

Make sure to do your own research and confirm that the event satisfies the resolution criteria. Never rush.

Example: In Will a new country buy Bitcoin in 2025?, Abu Dhabi, an emirate of the UAE, did not qualify because the rules required a sovereign UN member state to buy Bitcoin.

Wait for someone to propose first

Avoid being the first to propose in a market with many outcomes. Watching how others propose can help you avoid early mistakes.

Example: In markets with multiple outcomes, waiting to see which proposals go undisputed can help you avoid mistakes.

Only propose one market at a time

If you're proposing in a new category, limit yourself to one market at a time. This reduces risk in case your proposal is incorrect or disputed.

Example: If you've never proposed a highest temperature market before, don't submit more than one proposal at a time.
