When it comes to prediction markets, there's consensus that we're still in early innings. The reality is, only a handful of use cases have shown genuine staying power and real-world traction so far. What's particularly constraining growth? The liquidity problem. Most traditional market makers lack the tools and expertise to effectively price prediction market assets or supply sufficient liquidity—especially once you venture beyond the straightforward sports betting niche. This gap remains a significant bottleneck for broader adoption.

Liquidity bottleneck is really annoying; market makers just don't understand this system at all.

Liquidity is indeed a bottleneck, but to be honest, we're still in the conceptual hype stage, and the actual usable scenarios are scarce...

Liquidity issues are really a dead end; besides sports betting, who the hell wants to mess with this stuff?

honestly the liquidity excuse is just lazy governance theater. real problem's the protocol design itself—nobody wants to build on fundamentally broken incentive structures. watch what happens when someone finally forks with proper market mechanics.
