In A New Deal For Manifold, the staff mentioned that
Users under 18 years of age may no longer be permitted to use the site.
which, if implemented, would mean that I would not be able to use Manifold anymore.
Resolves YES if users under 18 years old can create markets, make bets in mana, be paid out in mana and collect streak/referral bonuses. Resolves NO if they can't do at least one of these actions. If users under 18 years old cannot convert mana into real money, that is irrelevant towards resolution. If Manifold implements KYC for doing one of the above following actions but users under 18 years old cannot be verified, then this market resolves YES.
If Manifold requires verification for accounts over a certain threshold, and users under 18 years old cannot do verification, and it is impossible to bring your account to a state that doesn't require verification after going over the threshold, then this market resolves YES.

1.00From the Sweepskates Beta Announcement:
As an alternative, users who are not eligible for sweepstakes, or who are, but do not wish to complete KYC to claim sweepcash, may email us (info@manifold.markets) by the end of the year and we will be happy to make a charitable donation on their behalf!
In case you want to use your sweepcash before you leave...
@bohaska this can now resolve NO right? like the policy is already in place, so "throughout 2024" is already violated (it's not "at EOY")
For users under 18 who didn't lie about their ages, this is well worth simply betting up as close to 100% as possible, since we would lose our accounts if the criteria for this question resolving NO arise and then mana wouldn't matter.
@tauparticle excluding things like the value of mana when you donate it to charity before you leave and discount rates, then yea
Maybe... I mean, if someone else gets the mana, then presumably they'll eventually donate it to charity too at some point. I don't care that much about how much gets donated, anyways.
@nikki I read the announcement and I'm going to liquidate and donate to charity. Even if I am allowed to bet I don't want to bet on a real money website due to the risk of gambling addiction
@nikki My guess is that roughly because it's getting close to a real money gambling site they're worried about legal liability, and they said this in vc? Something like that?
