Sorry. I really liked your essay.

The liquidity here is absolutely insane. Is there a reason to think the probability should be around 50?

@Conflux Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but how do you see the liquidity? Or are you just judging that it must be really high because you bought a large amount of NO without moving the probability much?

@Fion Market info, three dots in the top right, gives you the subsidies. Currently it says Ṁ5,571 / Ṁ5,590 - my understanding is that when you add liquidity, it only actually arrives at the market over time, to avoid people immediately taking advantage of the subsidy they just added. So this means "people have put 5590 in, but only 5571 has actually arrived so far".

What Phil said is true...but in this case, I was just judging that it must be really high because I bought a large amount of NO without moving the probability much.

Why is this free money?

@BenjaminIkuta I notice that the liquidity for this market is unusually high

@ForrestTaylor That doesn't mean it's free money.
