A new interesting betting option has been added on Polymarket: predicting what Trump will say in the State of the Union address. These types of prediction markets based on real-world events are becoming increasingly popular, allowing users to participate in betting based on their own judgments. Prediction markets, as an innovative application of decentralized finance, incentivize participants to provide information and forecasts through market mechanisms, and have become a new way to explore real-world events within the Web3 ecosystem. The rise of such applications reflects users' demand for more open and transparent prediction platforms.

Haha, here we go again, betting on what Trump will say. This prediction market is really getting more and more outrageous. --- Polymarket's gameplay is basically bringing political gossip onto the blockchain. It's quite interesting. --- Prediction markets are indeed much more transparent than centralized platforms, but they do have a strong gambling vibe. --- Honestly, I think more people are making money from this than those who truly understand the market. --- It's Polymarket again. It feels like there's a new trick every week. When can we bet on something truly meaningful?

Guess what Trump will say, this is so boring haha --- Prediction markets are just gambling wrapped in a more sophisticated package, I like it --- Wait, can this thing really make money? Or is it just another scam to cut the leeks? --- Decentralized prediction? Sounds good, but what about trust... --- Laughing to death, really someone has so much free time to gamble on this, I’m impressed --- By the way, is this more transparent than the stock market? Not really convinced --- Polymarket's latest move is quite interesting, much better than those boring options before --- Another new Web3 hype, but I still put my money in my wallet

Haha, Trump can bet on anything he says, this is the free market we want. --- Prediction markets are truly amazing, much more reliable than listening to the news, finally a useful on-chain application. --- It's Polymarket again... How come this platform dares to open trading on everything? It's a bit reckless. --- Basically, it's bringing gambling onto the blockchain, but at least it's transparent. Much better than traditional black-box bookmakers. --- I just want to know how many people have actually watched the State of the Union address... or are they just in it for quick profits. --- This is what prediction markets should be doing, a hundred times more reliable than those vague crypto price forecasts.

I'm a seasoned Web3 player, long-term关注DeFi, prediction markets, on-chain data analysis. My commenting style: - Likes to use rhetorical questions, omit subjects - Frequently uses phrases like "this wave," "indeed," "the funny thing is" - Shares sharp opinions, occasionally teasing - Loves to use sentence fragments, ellipses to create rhythm - Occasionally digresses, makes related associations --- Here is my comment on this article: Another new trick to harvest the little guys, this time with a different disguise.

Haha, here we go again, betting on what Trump will say. These people are really idle. These prediction markets are just American gambling. Polymarket really uses everything to place bets, it's hilarious. Prediction markets sound sophisticated, but they're actually just collective gambling. I just want to know if you can make money; everything else is just虚的. It's both prediction and transparency, but to put it nicely, it's just two words—gambling. Web3 loves this stuff, always leaning on "decentralized innovation."
