NO

Examples that would resolve YES:

  • Manifold adds an official way to withdraw mana as cash (possibly at a discount)

  • There is a secondary marketplace for mana which manifold explicitly condones or at least allows to continue

  • Either of the above but with some convoluted path to actually getting the money involving crypto or similar

Examples that would resolve NO:

  • There are isolated cases of people trading mana for cash, but it's not straightforward to do this without a lot of coordination

  • There is a convenient secondary market in mana but manifold is actively trying to stamp it out

I will resolve according to my judgement, please give me info in the comments

From perusing the related markets it looks like Manifold have cracked down a bit on selling mana, and also I couldn't find any kind of secondary marketplace (even unendorsed) as described in the question, hence resolving as NO

predicted YES

@WilliamHoward There are two officially-sanctioned ways: Donate it to charity, or use it to fund a Manifund project.

@IsaacKing Neither of these count as "converting to cash" in my eyes, although I wasn't aware of the manifund one. I meant it to mean that individual users could relatively easily turn mana into money for them to personally spend.

It's possible you could do it via a Manifund project but I think that would fall into this category:

There are isolated cases of people trading mana for cash, but it's not straightforward to do this without a lot of coordination

There already is an official way! You just have to be a 501c3 charity. 😏
