How Truth Markets work

Truth Markets is a points-only prediction hub. You stake Truth Points (TP), not dollars. New accounts start with 25,000 TP.

Odds are the share of TP currently on YES vs NO. The chart is the history of those odds. When a market resolves, winners split the losing pool in proportion to their stake. If a market expires with no editor call, stakes are returned.

Gestures: thumbs up = agree, thumbs down = disagree, middle finger = “this narrative is garbage.” One reaction per user per comment or market. Click again to clear.

Comedy markets use the same engine. Funniest-of-the-week and Florida Man vs politics are first-class markets, not afterthoughts.

Resolution follows the written criteria on each market. The Whatfinger editor account can settle a market, which pays winners automatically.

Threads stay open after a market closes so the debate and the result can keep living on the same page.
