* Players take positions against each other in a market with two binary outcomes
* Players’ funds are held in a decentralized smart contract until market resolution
* Market odds are determined upon market closure based on market participation on either side
* Payout is determined by the player’s respective share of the winning side relative to the losing side&#x20;
* 95% of the total market is distributed to winning players&#x20;
* Payout is trustless and immediate upon resolution
