With improved UX and new layer two solutions built on top of Web3 protocols, however, interacting with these technologies is getting easier. This is particularly evident in the case of prediction markets, where new features from Guesser and Veil have opened up these services up to a wider, less technically accomplished audience.

Decentralized Prediction Markets Keep Getting Better

"What will be the market capitalization of Cosmos Atoms (ATOM) in USD on April 30, 2019?" asks Veil. "Will a second referendum on Brexit be announced in the UK before 29 March 2019?" ponders Guesser. Technically these markets originate on Augur, but people are increasingly now placing their bets via secondary services that bolt a user-friendly interface onto Augur's protocol and simplify the betting options.
