An individual could hedge IRS risk via a personalized prediction market contract, like betting "Yes" on "Will [Your Name] face IRS audit/enforcement in 2026?" at long odds (e.g., 10:1 if low probability). If audited, the payout offsets penalties. Challenges: Verification requires trusted oracles (e.g., public records or consented docs). Platforms like Polymarket might host for public figures, but privacy laws limit for average users. Feasible in decentralized setups?

Everyone recognizes that if too many people resisted the government (let's say taxes for an example) that government could not possibly arrest them all. Theoretically, what would happen if someone was able to provide insurance against the state's aggression against those engaged in peaceful non-compliance? This idea isn't totally original to me, I think I got it from the Tannerhills in "The Market for Liberty" but it's something I've pondered for a while. Maybe it's something that could be achieved by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization. Instead of paying taxes, you would pay this DAO with the expectation that if the government tried to make you an example they would come to your defense via legal aid or possibly purely monetary compensation to cover assessed fees etc.... The difficulties are that such a DAO would almost certainly be illegal under existing statute; and if not would be instantly outlawed by new legislation. This being the case, it would have to remain fully anonymous, and this makes it difficult for anyone to verify claims. Anyway it's a fun idea, hopefully someone smarter than I can realize something like this in the future.
