Powering Stox is the STX digital token, the primary form for fees, collateral, and the currency for wagers in event predictions.

What are prediction markets :
Prediction markets are an exchange where any individual or organization can tap into the "wisdom of the crowd" to ask any question or predict the result of any event. Like any other exchange prediction platform, Stox utilizes the relevant event in the form of a stock where participants can trade on the outcome of the event. Predicted events are diverse and can be based on any imaginable topic such as election results, sports, entertainment, financial instruments and even the weather. Similar to the financial markets, which assign a price to the future estimated earnings of a stock, prediction markets assign a traded price to a belief about the future. The market price can also be used to indicates how the crowd in general sees the probability of the outcome of an event. Individuals buy and sell outcome shares based on what they see as the probability at any given moment. As long as a prediction is active, the price continues to fluctuate and indicates the probability of an outcome according to the crowd's wisdom.

Let's assume that a certain event is given a 60% chance of happening. This percentage represents the price of the event, in this case 0.6. As more people believe this event is going to happen, normally because they are in possession of information about this event but sometimes just because they are "following the crowd", more “shares" of this event outcome will be purchased and the price will increase. On contrary, some people may predict that this event will not happen and this opinion will effectively cause the price to drop. During the prediction period, the crowd analyzes the chances of this event happening, creating a useful tool to understand the crowd mindset on certain topics. Because prediction markets represent diverse thoughts and opinions from different locations and personal observations, they have proven to be effective as a prognostic tool, similar to economic markets. As a result of their visionary value, prediction markets have been utilized by institutions and large companies like Google to predict internal outcomes of product development. We believe that due to their increasing popularity, prediction markets will become a popular tool
with traders, especially as more platforms are introduced and decentralized technologies increase trust in these systems.

Predict like a game..this is a knowledgeable game..nice post..

Hi! I am a robot. I just upvoted you! I found similar content that readers might be interested in:
https://resources.stox.com/stox-whitepaper.pdf

I came across STOX from a promotion on Facebook where they asked people to predict the outcome of the world cup. In the age of social media where peoples opinion are often influenced by others, this kind of prediction market might not actually work well.
I came across James Surowiecki, Wisdom of crowd where he stated that Diversity, independence, decentralization and aggregation are necessary criteria for the crowd to be wise, which is nearly impossible in the age of social media.
But come to think of it, with the monetary reward ( tokens ) attached to the prediction. It will allow people to make reasonable predictions based on instinct and not emotions since people are likely going to predict their country to win out of perceived patriotism.
