Can I lose money on SI Predict?

Yes. Like any trading or wagering platform, SI Predict involves financial risk. If your predictions are incorrect, you can lose some or all of the money you put in those trades. For example, if you buy shares of an outcome that doesn’t happen (and you don’t sell out before the market resolves), the value of those shares will drop to zero. Even if you change your mind or the odds move against you, selling shares for less than you paid will realize a loss. Additionally, if you provide liquidity (pool funds for others to trade against), you can incur losses due to market price shifts (see Liquidity section for details). It’s important to only risk funds you can afford to lose and to understand that no outcome is guaranteed. While prediction markets can be profitable and informative, they are not a sure thing – essentially, you’re trading on uncertain events. SI Predict encourages responsible use: monitor your positions, consider setting limits for yourself, and view the activity as a form of engagement and insight rather than a guaranteed money-maker. If you ever feel the need to step back, the platform supports responsible trading breaks. Remember, the goal is to have fun and possibly profit from your knowledge, but never assume a zero-risk environment.
