Buterin Proposes Prediction Markets Provide Price Stability

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said in an X post that he worries prediction markets are converging toward short-term gambling and urged they pivot to hedge consumer price exposure. He proposed onchain markets paired with local LLMs that generate personalized baskets of prediction-market shares representing N days of expected expenses. Buterin argued this system would help individuals and businesses offset inflation-driven cost-of-living increases.
