Prediction markets can be used as commitment devices if you set a 99% initial probability of your own success - you lose your money if you fail but gain money if you succeed, with your gains being proportional to how unlikely you were to succeed. This seems to me to be a powerful idea, so I've created a community on Manifold around it. Will it catch on? Markets count regardless of open/closed resolved status. I won't count markets that don't place high initial odds - the idea is to incentivise your own success.
