Will we collectively be able to bring all markets on Manifold above 10 traders?

It's frustrating for creators and sad for the platform to have so many markets with very few traders. It would help if more people would bet at least 1 mana on these markets.

Please post old and new markets with less than 10 traders in the comments, so that they can get a boost.

This market will resolve YES if it trades for more than 4 weeks at 99%. It will resolve NO if it trades for more than 4 weeks at 1%.

Sort by:

I have changed the resolution criteria. The market now resolves NO if it trades for more than 4 weeks at 1% (instead of below 1%) and YES if it trades for more than 4 weeks at 99% (instead of above 99%).

It seems like what would be needed here is to be able to use the total traders option in the browse view, but sorted by a low number rather than a high number of traders. Should be a relatively easy addition.

Meanwhile, I'm not sure "get all markets above 10 traders by making a bunch of small bets" is a good goal. Some markets are by people who are no longer active users or have a history of resolving markets poorly, and people should be using their judgment about which markets to participate in.

It is, however, a prosocial act to boost or subsidize a market that asks a question you would like to see get a good answer, and maybe manifold could put in place incentives to encourage this behavior.

sold Ṁ10 NO

This market will resolve YES if it trades for more than 4 weeks above 99%. It will resolve NO if it trades for more than 4 weeks below 1%.

This seems like it could be manipulated

@PlasmaBallin At 99% or 1% market forces are extreme. I don't think that can be manipulated for 4 weeks against evidence.

@GreenComp it would be hard for someone to make it resolve, but they could prevent it from resolving.

bought Ṁ5 NO

Cool idea!
