What are prediction markets?

Prediction markets are platforms where users buy and sell shares in the outcomes of real-world events. A contract priced at 70¢ means the crowd thinks there's a 70% chance of that outcome happening. They're more accurate than polls and expert forecasts because participants have real money on the line.

How do prediction markets work?

In a prediction market, you buy YES or NO shares on an outcome. Each share pays $1 if correct, $0 if wrong. The market price at any moment represents the crowd's estimated probability. You profit by identifying events where the market price is wrong.

Boromarket is a mobile-first prediction markets app for iOS and Android. Users trade on real-world events across politics, crypto, sports, and entertainment. It features gamified prediction challenges, fast mobile UX, and a non-custodial wallet setup.

How is Boromarket different from sports betting apps?

Unlike sports betting apps where you bet against the house, prediction markets let the crowd set prices through trading. This makes them more accurate, transparent, and fair. You're competing against other traders — not an operator who profits when you lose.

What can I bet and predict on Boromarket?

Boromarket offers markets on politics (elections, policy decisions), crypto (Bitcoin and altcoin price movements), sports (game outcomes, season results), entertainment (award shows, cultural events), and more.

Is Boromarket a good Polymarket alternative?

Yes. Boromarket is a Polymarket alternative designed specifically for mobile users. Where Polymarket was built for desktop, Boromarket is built mobile-first with a fast, clean interface, gamified features, and iOS and Android apps.

How do I make money with prediction markets?

You make money in prediction markets by finding outcomes the crowd has mispriced. When a market prices something at 60% that you believe is 80% likely, buying YES shares has positive expected value. Consistent profits require genuine information edges, disciplined bet sizing, and tracking your results over time.

Can I play prediction market games on Boromarket?

Yes. Boromarket has built-in prediction games including Speed Predict (fast-paced real-time predictions) and Prediction Quiz (test your forecasting skills against real market data). These games make learning prediction markets fun and accessible.

Boromarket Mobile App: Every Feature Worth Knowing About

The Boromarket mobile app has evolved significantly since launch. If you haven't explored beyond the basic market feed, you're leaving functionality — and edge — on the table. This is a complete feature walkthrough.

Market Discovery

The home feed surfaces markets by activity level and proximity to resolution. You can filter by category, sort by liquidity, and bookmark markets you're watching. The search function handles both market titles and tags — searching 'Bank of England' pulls up every BoE-related market across the platform.

Position Management

→Open positions dashboard shows real-time P&L across all holdings
→Individual market view shows your average entry price vs current price
→Early exit button allows closing positions before resolution at current market rate
→Position history shows all resolved trades with outcomes and P&L
→Portfolio view aggregates exposure by category

Notifications

Notifications are configurable per market. Set alerts for: price movement above a threshold, imminent resolution (24-hour and 1-hour warnings), and significant liquidity changes that might indicate new information entering the market.

🔔

The 24-hour resolution notification is the feature most beginners overlook. If you've forgotten about a position, this alert gives you time to review and exit if your view has changed. Enable it for everything.

Analytics Dashboard

The analytics dashboard shows your calibration over time — a graph of 'confidence vs outcomes' that reveals whether your 70% confidence positions are actually resolving at ~70%. This is the most useful feature for serious traders and the most ignored by casual users.

Social Features

You can follow other traders, see their public position histories (if they've opted in), and view leaderboards by category. These features are opt-in — your positions are private by default.

"The analytics dashboard alone is worth downloading the boro market app. Seeing your calibration curve for the first time is either deeply satisfying or deeply humbling. Either way, it makes you a better trader."
