Overview

TBD operates an on-chain prediction market platform where every vote and trade comes from a uniquely verified human, leveraging World ID authentication to keep bots and AI-generated activity out. Its core product lets individuals and organizations post polls that immediately translate into Solana-based markets, aligning economic incentives with real-world opinion data. During a private beta, the protocol hosted over 4,000 markets and logged more than 19 million votes from 225,000+ participants worldwide, demonstrating early traction and network effects. The company was founded by Corey Miller and Taehoon Lee, who previously built products together at dYdX. By merging polling and trading into one workflow, TBD seeks to become the definitive source of large-scale, AI-resistant sentiment data for businesses, policymakers, and researchers. The public launch accompanies a fresh capital infusion that will fund further product development and scaling efforts.
