Ramping up sweepstakes

Sweepcash competition, Institutional partners wanted, deals, and new markets

For those who’ve missed it, Manifold now has markets where you can withdraw your winnings as real cash. Here’s how they work:

Yes, if you are a regular reader this is yet another reminder. But, you’d be surprised how many of our existing users and people who’ve heard of us still don’t realise Manifold now has withdrawals. There are many instances on Twitter where people comment Manifold is just play money. We need your help to let people know.

It’s competition time!

To celebrate the upcoming US election and the launch of our new sweepstakes markets, Manifold is hosting a prediction tournament with prizes of 1600 sweepcash up for grabs!

After the election, the top 3 sweepstakes traders on the Leaderboard in the categories of both Volume and Profit (across all topics) will earn the following prizes:

• First place: 500 sweepcash

• Second place: 200 sweepcash

• Third place: 100 sweepcash

The tournament will run until a random time on Nov 8th (Pacific Time), after which we will see who is at the top of the leaderboard.

Institutional partners wanted

We are looking for institutional partners - registered companies looking to hold 5-digit balances and provide volume. Certain terms and benefits differing from individuals apply. International companies are welcome. Please email info@manifold.markets.

Big deals & referral bonuses

Referrals:

Some new markets to check out

Over the past few days we’ve doubled the number of sweepstakes markets and are continuously adding liquidity. Many are new with few traders and if there is ever a time a market is mispriced with an opportunity to correct them it is now!

Sports markets! Here are just a few of them. Get ‘em while they're hot.

We’ve selected a number of government and policy questions specific to California and SF. While some of these are too niche to attract many traders on their mana-equivalents, we hope the opportunity to earn real cash will improve the information they can generate.

Going back to our roots. Let the meta-questions and rationalist insider markets commence.

We are looking to select many more markets created by you, so please submit them in our Discord. The only requirements are that they are binary (YES/NO), have clear criteria, and resolve within a year or two max.

Thanks for reading! And shoutout to any international homies who have read this far even though they are not yet eligible to participate in sweepstakes. We recently brought back bounties and are looking forward to prioritising more mana features such as loans in the near future.
