[Research] Long Augur - 1confirmation

1/18/2019

Executive Summary

While the Internet has enabled widespread communication across borders, global marketplaces have yet to see the same growth as a result of social (trust) and political (regulation) factors. Augur takes advantage of a p2p-networking and consensus layer that can aggregate resources allowing anyone to open a market. This has the potential to create prediction markets with global liquidity accessible by anyone in the world. The native $REP token provides the right to contribute work to the network and profit directly from its growth.
