Augur
Augur is a decentralized protocol for prediction markets and oracle resolution, originally launched on the Ethereum network. Prediction markets allow users to trade on the outcomes of future events, while oracles bring real-world outcomes on-chain so that markets can settle correctly.Augur It determines outcomes by leveraging economic incentives rather than relying on centralized institutions. Participants stake value on different outcomes; incorrect positions lose funds, while correct positions receive rewards. Following the 2025 revival led by the Lituus Foundation, development is currently divided into two tracks: a new prediction market system, and Augur Lituus, a general-purpose oracle that provides infrastructure for other applications.
