Providing liquidity and giving users the ability to buy and sell at almost any time is incredibly important.

Yes, MMs are compensated. That is the whole point of incentives: to make markets more competitive and functional. It does not make them “the house.” It means they are taking risk to keep markets moving.

This is just the start. Businesses will continue using prediction markets to hedge against risk. Once a theory is now materializing.

Kairos.

Kalshi's first example of a small business using it as hedging tool is The Jeffrey, an NYC bar that's promising free drinks to all customers if New York Knicks wins NBA Finals Game 1 on Wednesday

1. On Polymarket, Predictfun, and similar on-chain prediction markets, you can often see the wallet address and trading history of your counterparty because trades settle on-chain.
2. Market makers providing liquidity is a good thing. They create tighter spreads, deeper order books, and make it easier for normal users to enter and exit positions.
3. Liquidity provision is not the same as a sportsbook taking the other side of your bet. The goal is to make markets tradable by posting bids and asks, not to operate as “the house.”
4. Prediction markets are peer-to-peer by nature. Users trade against other users, not against the platform. If you match with a market maker, that simply means they were offering the best available price at that moment.

And importantly, anyone else is free to submit a better bid or ask. If you think the market maker’s price is bad, beat it. That is literally how open markets work.

[Jay Malavia @thejay]

Not saying the mechanism is new. The point is that prediction markets make the hedge transparent, tradable, and accessible through an exchange instead of being embedded in an opaque sportsbook line or one-off insurance contract. Not to mention that this can apply to various markets.

@PlusEVPenguin i'd rather trade in a fair market exchange vs the house

@Kevinroyaltiz anything hard is worth doing

[Havoc.hl 𝕏 @Havochl_]

One of the biggest mistakes in crypto is assuming generational opportunities look obvious.

Jeff personally reached out to people about Hyperliquid in 2023.

Some ignored it.
Some didn't have time.
Some thought they'd look into it later.

Today Hyperliquid is one of the most successful products crypto has ever produced.

The best opportunities rarely feel urgent when they first appear.
