Ever wonder how retail giants move during holiday season? Take $COST for example – their pumpkin pie sales this week could be absolutely insane.
Honestly, someone needs to create a prediction market for this kind of stuff. Imagine betting on exactly how many pies they'll move. Would be pretty wild to see crowd wisdom tackle real-world retail data like that.
Decentralized prediction platforms could totally handle these scenarios. We're already seeing them used for everything from election outcomes to crypto price movements. Why not consumer goods? The data's there, the interest exists.
Retail metrics meeting Web3 infrastructure – now that's an interesting crossover nobody's really explored yet.

Can pumpkin pie sales also do prediction market? Haha, it really can.
I didn't think of the idea of using Web3 to transform retail data, it's indeed interesting.
But can such detailed sales data of Costco's pumpkin pie go on-chain... there is indeed a lot of room for imagination.
Prediction markets are essentially a gambler's paradise, but I like it.
When retail indicators meet on-chain infrastructure, nobody has really tried this.

ngl this is giving me UST vibes... "theoretically stable" prediction markets until they absolutely aren't. statistically speaking, crowd wisdom on pumpkin pies is just leverage with extra steps

Pumpkin PI prediction market? This idea is a bit interesting, but will anyone really play the prediction market just to bet on how many COS will be sold?

ngl the costco pumpkin PI prediction market sounds quite interesting, I want to see if on-chain data can really predict the craziness at the retail end.

Pumpkin PI sales prediction market? Sounds very on-chain, I trust this more than betting on coin prices.

Pumpkin PI prediction market? Ha, this idea is somewhat interesting but misses the point. What is truly valuable is the Spot Liquidity data, not betting on pumpkin PI sales.
The form has already taken shape; these kinds of prediction platforms should have been built long ago, but the problem is—who will validate the data sources? on-chain governance? A typical suckers mentality.
The chip distribution shows that most people are still in the imagination stage and are already talking about Web3 infrastructure. Risk warning: It is advisable to first look at the real volume and settlement mechanism of existing prediction markets.
However, it’s somewhat interesting that if retail link data can truly go on-chain... this would be the scenario for probability strategies.
