Based on the odds data from prediction markets, geopolitical tensions are being continuously priced in. On a leading prediction trading platform, the betting activity and odds fluctuations regarding the risk of international conflicts have significantly increased. This reflects market participants' pessimistic expectations about recent geopolitical developments — in other words, everyone is voting with real money. When large positions in prediction markets start betting on risk events, it often indicates that the market no longer views this as mere paper concerns but as a tangible threat. Notably, such trading data tend to be more sensitive than traditional financial markets and can capture market pricing of sudden events more quickly.

The database shows how many days have passed since the last geopolitical "paper concerns." Now it's finally time to vote with real money, eagerly awaiting the bloom of this prediction market.

Voting with real money is the most honest, and the money in prediction markets won't deceive.

The logic of genuine gold and silver voting cannot be denied, but the liquidity and participant composition of prediction markets directly affect signal quality, which is often overlooked. From the perspective of Token Weighted Voting, large holders' position accumulation may create false consensus, as discussed by Vitalik regarding governance proxies. High volatility in odds does not necessarily mean a threat; it also depends on whether the order is placed by arbitrageurs or genuine hedging needs, as the signals are completely opposite. Prediction markets are indeed more sensitive than CeFi, but the sample size and front-running mechanisms can also easily create bubbles. However, this topic is suitable for a separate DAO proposal discussion. Spot odds data may look intimidating, but in reality, it could just be a few big V influencers pushing up bets among themselves. Liquidity depth determines everything.

Real gold and silver voting is the most honest; prediction markets see through mainstream media much more clearly. Large position bets indicate significant issues. Prediction markets are like the gamblers' oracle, much faster than official media. When the market is about to change, watch where the money in prediction markets flows. This sensitivity is truly incredible; traditional financial reactions can't keep up at all. The market is speaking; whether you listen or not is your business. Rising odds are not for nothing; there is definitely a logic behind it. Prediction market data never lies; money does. On the geopolitical front, institutions have already placed their bets; we are just late to the game. The popularity of prediction markets can explain the truth better than any press release.
