Wushuo has learned that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated in his latest blog post "From prediction markets to info finance" that he has been a close supporter and follower of a certain prediction market this year, which is one of the most exciting applications of Ethereum for him. Vitalik pointed out that prediction markets can not only accurately predict election outcomes but can also be used in various fields such as scientific peer review and decentralized organization (DAO) governance, providing new ideas to address the trust crisis in modern society. Vitalik called for the expansion of information finance to more application scenarios to tackle the current issue of trust deficit in society, leveraging the cost advantages and scalability of blockchain technology to achieve this goal. He emphasized that the potential of information finance goes beyond simple prediction applications and is expected to become an important tool in areas such as governance, scientific research, and public fund allocation.
