Svmuu News: Paradigm VP Justin Slaughter posted on platform X, announcing the release of Paradigm's first public opinion survey report of the year, which is also the institution's first survey focused on prediction markets.
The results show that over one-third (approximately 36%) of U.S. voters have already used prediction markets, either by placing bets or browsing markets for information. Furthermore, most Americans currently do not have a clear stance on prediction markets. Even among the 95% of Americans who have heard of prediction markets, nearly half do not have a clear opinion (this group also includes prediction market users).
In terms of user demographics, the prediction market user base under 50 years old accounts for a high proportion of 66%, with the 18-34 age group making up 20% and the 35-49 age group making up 27%. Non-white voters have a slightly higher usage rate of prediction markets compared to white voters, and male usage of prediction markets is significantly higher than female usage (46% vs. 31%).
