In /Joshua/what-four-markets-will-i-subsidize I chose the four markets listed here and subsidized each with 1000 mana. My hope would be that doing so will inspire further trading on these questions. I will try to measure this in total volume of mana spent in the markets in the next week.
At time of subsidy, the volume in these markets is:
Russia - 1119M
AI Inequality - 769M
Alien Life - 1693M
AI vs Human Rideshares - 211M
This market closes at noon PT in one week, and I will check those volumes again. This market resolves 80% to the market with the most increase in volume, and 20% to the market with the second most increase in volume.
Resolution time!
Final tallies:
Russian Invasion - 1119M > 2043M
AI Inequality - 769M > 1302M
Alien Life - 1693M > 4717M
AI vs Human Rideshares - 211M > 659M
That's Alien Life in first place with 3948 mana and Russian Invasion in second place with 924 mana! Thanks for participating, everyone! I think I'll make an Unlinked Market for subsidy suggestions next, let me know if you have any format suggestions!
