Delphi Digital summarizes their research findings, pointing out that the potential of prediction markets lies in transforming analysis into tradable decisions, providing transparency and real-time feedback. They partnered with Polymarket to launch 11 markets and hope to change people's perception of prediction markets through this approach, emphasizing their role as a tool for discovering true value.

【Crypto News】When it comes to the report cards of research institutions, it’s truly a mixed bag—some are happy, others are worried. Delphi Digital recently provided a very honest summary—some of their predictions and viewpoints were spot on, while others completely missed the mark. That’s the reality of the market. But from these experiences, they see a path forward: instead of keeping predictions confined to reports and statements, why not put them into the market for pricing?

This idea isn’t new, but the infrastructure to truly realize it has only now matured. As more institutions and traders begin to directly bet on trends and events in on-chain prediction markets—by placing bets or shorting—each prediction becomes something verifiable and tradable. The market will tell you in real-time how much your judgment is worth. Transparency, liquidity, instant feedback—these are the true powers of prediction markets.

So it’s no surprise that Delphi Digital announced a partnership with Polymarket. They plan to launch 11 markets, with the research team continuously involved in planning new markets. Whenever they publish research reports on related topics, they will embed the corresponding prediction markets directly into the reports.

Behind this is an interesting divergence of views: most people see prediction markets as purely speculative tools, while Delphi believes they are infrastructure for seeking truth and discovering real value. In their words, the most reliable way to predict the future is to price it. This logic could gradually change the entire industry’s perception of prediction markets.

Haha, finally someone dares to put predictions in the spotlight instead of hiding in reports to boast. This is what Web3 should be about—letting the market speak.

Laughing until crying, predicting correctly can make money, predicting wrongly still gets permanently recorded on the chain, this level of transparency is truly amazing.

Oh, this is the right way. Putting the trash talk on the chain to let the market speak is more genuine than any report. Honestly, the market prediction sector should have been like this from the start. Watching those institutions hype it up every day, and when they crash, no one is held accountable. The liquidity on Polymarket isn't quite enough yet; more major institutions need to come in. I'm a bit looking forward to seeing what happens after this integration, but the risks also need to be carefully considered. Another thing that sounds impressive but still depends on real-world implementation.

Haha, that's how prediction markets should be done. Stop with those fancy reports and put it on the chain for the market to speak. --- Whether it crashes or hits the mark, in the end, it's all about voting with money. That's true transparency. --- Wait, Delphi Diamond is teaming up with Polymarket? I need to see if I can get some free gains. --- Basically, turning words into real money bets. I like this approach. --- What’s the point of prediction market transparency? Wealthier people still have more influence... but at least this is more honest than bragging. --- On-chain pricing sounds great in theory, but when it really matters, can the liquidity keep up? --- Research institutions are finally waking up. Instead of writing reports, they might as well directly bet against retail investors. If they lose, they lose.

Haha, Delphi has definitely been harshly taught a lesson by the market this time. No one can avoid prediction failures. This move to put predictions on the blockchain for pricing is really bold. I'm just worried that if my judgment gets called out by the market, I’ll have to watch the price drop in real time. Interestingly, previous predictions could be spun into jokes to smooth things over, but now that they’re on the blockchain, the truth is out in the open. It’s a bit exciting. A mature prediction market is good; at least it’s more reliable than listening to these institutions boast. That said, increasing transparency is great, but it also seems like more people are going to get hit.
