Please describe your proposed solution

An Automated Market Maker prediction market on Cardano where anyone can bet on the outcome of future events would increase the activity and drive the much needed users and liquidity on the Cardano blockchain.

We are approaching this problem this way because of how efficient AMM models are.

Our project will engage the Cardano community, the broader crypto community and thrill seekers looking for some gains.

Our impact will be proven by increased transactions and users on Foreon Network

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

The project will provide an engaging and efficient prediction market platform on the Cardano blockchain, fostering community engagement and adoption.

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

We have a track record of delivering clean and intuitive interfaces.

We have developed the order book prediction market smart contracts in collaboration with TXpipe and we have also in partnership with a Cardano development firm utilizing agile methodologies to ensure faster turnaround times.
