- New top-level page, DataPoints
- Can create a DataPoint instead of a market, poll, or bounty
- each DataPoint must be linked a specific page on a specific site. Ideally a specific HTML element. Examples:
- The headline inflation rate
- 538 average
- Etc
- DataPoints are updated every ~5 minutes by a self-hosted batch job OR bots doing it for some reason???
- Other markets can reference up to N DataPoints natively.
- Can start with N = 1
- When N > 1, allow simple math relationships
- Markets that reference DataPoints can automatically autoresolve when they reach their resolve time: they resolve based on the value(s) of the data point(s) at that time
- Can reference DataPoints in comments along with markets
- Users cannot create duplicate DataPoints (mods delete them)
- User can pin a DataPoint to a Dashboard linked from their Profile (they can also pin Markets to this dashboard)
