I have a smart friend who is gifted in mathematics and works for a major tech company. We get dinner every few weeks and I must have been chatty about Manifold last time we met up because last night he asked whether I was still using it. I suspect he might join, but I really don’t know. What do you think, Manifoldidians? Will my chum join Manifold before the end of 2024? Will he like it?
I will not be betting in this market.

What are sweepstakes markets?
There are two types of markets on Manifold: play money and sweepstakes.
By default all markets are play money and use mana. These markets allow you to win more mana but do not award any prizes which can be cashed out.
Selected markets will have a sweepstakes toggle. These require sweepcash to participate and allow winners to withdraw any sweepcash won to real money.
As play money and sweepstakes markets are independent of each other, they may have different odds even though they share the same question and comments.
