Will manifold implement a "continuous" market?

NO

Imagine a market "Aliens will be found in the next year" where when you buy shares they dynamically adjust due date.

So it would be a permanent market but shares would expire individually. One problem is that shares wouldn't be easily tradeable.

I think for many markets this may seem more natural than how we currently pick a random date in the future and then bet yes/no on that.

Other examples: I'd like to make markets about my city like "will X store go out of business in the next month". In the current system there's no way to make that into a long term market. But with continuous markets it could go on for years with everyone on the same market page.

@Ernie looks like this is NO? (AFAIK you're still off the site, and don't want mods to resolve these, so I'll give it a while and can always email if necessary)
