# Squid

> Predict everything.

Squid is a prediction market platform where anyone can turn a real-world question into a tradable market. There's no application process and no committee deciding what's allowed — if it's a real question, it can become a market.

## Mission

Achieving what permissionless prediction markets were supposed to look like. Crypto promised a world with no gatekeepers, and somewhere along the way, the biggest platforms built them anyway. Squid exists to keep that original promise.

## What Squid Does

- **Ask a Question** — Enter any question and turn it into a market that's tradable instantly. No application, no committee — the market goes live as soon as the question does.
- **Reputation Is Earned** — Every creator builds a track record over time. The better your markets perform, the more trust you carry on the platform, and the more that trust is worth.
- **After Dark** — Trade the high-volume, mainstream markets on the clearnet, or go further into After Dark, where volatility runs high and the rules loosen.
- **Resolution** — Markets settle the moment the answer becomes clear. No waiting on a human to review, approve, or sign off on the outcome.
