BlockBeats News, August 25th, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin posted on Warpcast, saying, "Regarding the debate on the pros and cons of prediction markets, one important point I would like to add is: Currently, most mainstream prediction markets do not pay interest, which makes them very unattractive in terms of hedging. Because just participating means giving up the guaranteed 4% annual return in USD."

I expect that once this issue is resolved, there will be a large number of hedging applications emerging, and trading volume will further increase."
