Polls
- Gauge out the market sentiment by running your own polls. The market will do its thing, but what does your counterparty think?
- What is the majority consensus? Gather data and use this to your advantage!
- Based on whether it is a private poll or a public poll, users will get a chance to vote on the polls as a form of prediction.
- Poll voting is unranked but scored. What you vote on a poll will not affect your swan score or leaderboard ranking.
- All poll votings are anonymous.
