The core dilemma of prediction markets is gradually emerging. Polymarket has a trading volume of up to $20B, but the traders building this ecosystem have not received any economic incentives — clearly not a sustainable long-term model. Recently emerging projects are redefining the rules of this space. The completion of new funding confirms market expectations: a $3M seed round led by Morningstar Ventures and Arctic Digital, with the token performing remarkably — a 1,360% increase reflecting the market's keen interest in a new paradigm for prediction markets. This wave of change means participants will finally be able to share in the value they create.

Someone should have taken care of this long ago, Polymarket has been bleeding for so long... --- 1360%? Hey, now traders can finally make some real money. --- Wait, is incentives alone enough? It also depends on whether the ecosystem can truly survive. --- Sharing the pie has begun, it seems everyone can’t hold back anymore. --- But honestly, how long this model can last is still uncertain... --- Another project claiming to be revolutionary, hope it's different this time lol. --- Polymarket free users have been around for so many years, finally someone dares to make a move. --- Token prices skyrocketing, who’s taking the plunge? --- Redefining the rules? Sounds good, but ultimately someone still has to foot the bill.

Finally, someone has exposed the issues with Polymarket. Free-riding traders really can't play for long... 1360%? With this kind of increase, I can't help but want to buy the dip... For prediction markets to truly thrive, the incentive mechanisms need to keep up, or else it will just be a playground for the big players. It feels authentic; it seems this track is finally going to be regulated. The token is surging so wildly; could it also be a trap later? Need to stay cautious.

Haha, finally someone is going to share the cake with traders. It’s impossible for projects like Polymarket to keep exploiting users forever. A 1360% increase is indeed impressive, but in the end, it’s still the players who decide the outcome in these prediction markets... Wow, the funding background is pretty solid. Let’s see if they can really survive in the long run. Prediction markets should have incentives. After free riding for so long, a rebound was long overdue. This token’s surge feels a bit fake... Eh, whatever, I didn’t even get in anyway haha.

Damn, Polymarket has such high trading volume but doesn't give traders dividends? No wonder new players keep coming to stir things up. The token has surged by 1360%, isn't it just a pump and dump... Finally, someone thought of sharing the pie with participants, now that's the right approach. Polymarket should have been revolutionary from the start; this model is just too bloodsucking. New projects rely on fundraising and token price increases to attract people, but who knows if they can survive the next bear market. Sharing value sounds great, but how much you can actually get is another story. Prediction markets are essentially zero-sum games; no matter how many incentives are offered, this fact won't change.

Ha, Polymarket has such a high trading volume but doesn't give traders a penny? No wonder it got overwhelmed; that logic is indeed absurd. The token has surged by 1360%. I just want to know if it's still possible to jump on now... To make prediction markets popular, it probably still depends on how these new projects operate. Just giving out tokens without real liquidity is pointless. Polymarket has really been taught a lesson this time. Sharing the profits is indeed a necessity. The question is, how long can these types of projects survive? Or is it just another wave of hype?
