# What is Outpoll?

***

Outpoll is a CeDeFi (Centralized-Decentralized Finance) prediction market platform that leverages proprietary blockchain and backend technology. It allows users to trade on real-world events such as politics, sports, finance, and entertainment by buying and selling event-linked tokens that mirror market sentiment.

#### **Key Features of Outpoll:**

1. **Hybrid CeDeFi Model** – Combines the efficiency of centralized systems with the transparency of decentralized finance.&#x20;
2. **Proprietary Blockchain Tech** – Built on a custom internal blockchain for fast, scalable, and secure transactions. In the future, the project will be migrated to another popular blockchain, or we will make our own blockchain public after a series of tests.
3. **Prediction Markets** – Users trade "Yes" or "No" tokens on event outcomes (e.g., "Will Tesla stock hit $300 by 2025?").
4. **Stablecoin Integration** – Supports USDC for seamless, low-volatility trading.
5. **Smart Contract Backend** – Ensures fair, tamper-proof resolution of events while maintaining user control.
6. **Dynamic Odds** – Real-time pricing reflects crowd wisdom, turning sentiment into tradable assets.

#### **How It Works:**

* Deposit stablecoins (e.g., USDC) or any other crypto into your Outpoll account.
* Buy tokens (shares) in prediction markets (e.g., "Will Argentina win the next FIFA World Cup?").
* If correct, redeem shares at full value; if wrong, they expire worthless.

Outpoll merges the best of CeFi and DeFi, offering a next-gen prediction market experience.
