Six outcomes everybody desires
⏰ More Time💰 More Money🛡️ Less Risk🤝 Better Relationships🕊️ More Freedom💪 Better Health
See which actions are most likely to help you achieve your desired outcomes...

EDM helps individuals and businesses focus on what actually works by evaluating actions using collective human knowledge, experience and judgment. This allows them to reduce guesswork and avoid wasting time, money, and effort on low-credibility actions.

Outcomes explained 🔰
  • The point is the score. Every action carries a confidence score: what people who put money and proof behind it say about whether doing it helps. Not a poll, not a model's guess, not a search result - the score is settled by verdicts from people who did the action and proved it, and moved by the money of people who backed it or bet against it. The market, the roles and the rules below are the means; the score is the product, so you can stop guessing and see what works.
  • The outcomes everybody wants, in every culture, for every person, team, creature and task. An action helps one or more of the 6 domains:
    • ⏰ More Time - Everything alive spends it and gets none back. An action that hands hours back to a person, a team or a task helps anywhere.
    • 💰 More Money - Stored effort. Earning it, keeping it or wasting less of it buys room for the other 5.
    • 🛡️ Less Risk - Every creature guards against loss before it reaches for gain. Fewer ways to lose is progress on its own.
    • 🤝 Better Relationships - Nothing lasting is built alone. Trust between people is the oldest infrastructure there is.
    • 🕊️ More Freedom - The room to choose: where to be, what to do, whom to answer to. Wanted by everything that can move.
    • 💪 Better Health - A body and a mind that work. The outcome the other 5 are worth little without.
  • Who does what. A role is granted per epoch by the thing you did, and you can wear several. Backing, taking, creating and sponsoring need a Basic and Outcomes subscription; reading is free for everyone.

  • An epoch is one round. It opens at the last score. Backers 🐮 bull or 🐻 bear stake - every stake pays a flat fee of $0.25, $0.15 to EDM and $0.10 to the liquidity leg - and takers ✋ post a bond, do the action for 2 to 6 weeks, by domain, and file a verdict with evidence. When enough valid verdicts are in the epoch settles: a bull share pays the share of verdicts that said it helped, a bear share the rest, the pool pays the takers by grade and rating, the bonds come home, and the next epoch opens at that score. A market has no last epoch unless its creator retires it; an epoch that reaches 90 days without enough verdicts refunds every bond and restarts its clock. epoch opensat the last scoreback 🐮 bull or 🐻 bearor take ✋ as a takerstakes, bonds, the tenureverdicts with evidencegraded by the 🤖 validator,rated blind by the 👑 creatorsettles at the share thatsaid it helped - and paysthe next epoch opens at the new score
  • Create one as a 👑 creator, to put an action of your own on the market: pick its depth, pay for it, rate the verdicts, and share every trade's liquidity leg with whoever funds the maker as a 💧 sponsor. Actions can support missions, the shared goals; your open positions are on your positions page and every cent on your wallet.
  • A worked example: Nina's action over 3 epochs, every role, and the ledger after every step

    Derived from the same arithmetic the platform runs, at the $5.00 depth. Nina, the 👑 creator, opens it; Ana and Cara back it as 🐮 bulls, Ben bets against it as a 🐻 bear; Dev, Eli, Gus, Fay and later Hal take it as ✋ takers; Ben challenges as a ⚔️ challenger; 👓 onlookers buy the pass; Sam funds the maker as a 💧 sponsor when the market thins; the 🤖 validator grades the evidence. Balances are what the action holds after each step; the creator column is the action's own creator bucket - what the creator put in and took out THROUGH the action, while the liquidity legs and the retirement return leave for a wallet, which is why the total below differs.

    Epoch 1 at the $5.00 depth

    what happenedscorepoolmakerbondscollateralliquidityEDMcreator
    👑Nina opens the action at the $5.00 depth and pays $13.87: $3.47 to EDM, $3.47 to the market maker, $6.93 to the verdict pool, and sets the backstage pass at $1.00.50.0%$6.93$3.47$0.00$0.00$0.00$3.47-$13.87
    🐮Ana backs it with $5.00: the $0.25 fee splits $0.15 to EDM, $0.10 to the liquidity leg, $4.75 buys 714.1 bull shares.80.7%$6.93$3.47$0.00$4.75$0.10$3.62-$13.87
    🐻Ben bets against it with $3.00: the $0.25 fee splits $0.15 to EDM, $0.10 to the liquidity leg, $2.75 buys 783.5 bear shares.46.5%$6.93$3.47$0.00$7.50$0.20$3.77-$13.87
    🐮Cara backs it with $2.00: the $0.25 fee splits $0.15 to EDM, $0.10 to the liquidity leg, $1.75 buys 321.1 bull shares.62.3%$6.93$3.47$0.00$9.25$0.30$3.92-$13.87
    ✋Dev, Eli, Gus and Fay take the action, $2.00 bond each into escrow. From now on none of them can back it and none of the backers can file a verdict.$6.93$3.47$8.00$9.25$0.30$3.92-$13.87
    👓25 onlookers buy the $1.00 pass: $7.50 to EDM, $12.50 to Nina, $5.00 to the pool.$11.93$3.47$8.00$9.25$0.30$11.42-$1.37
    ✋🤖Eli files "helped" with no evidence. The validator rejects it and his $2.00 bond goes to the pool.$13.93$3.47$6.00$9.25$0.30$11.42-$1.37
    ✋✋✋Dev and Gus file "helped", Fay "did not help", each with evidence the validator accepts - 3 valid verdicts, so the epoch settles at v = 2 of 3. A bull share pays 66.67c, a bear share 33.33c: Ana $4.76, Ben $2.61, Cara $2.14 - $9.51 against $9.25 collected, the $0.26 shortfall from the market maker. The $0.30 liquidity leg goes to Nina, the maker's only funder.66.7%$13.93$3.21$6.00$0.00$0.00$11.42-$1.37
    👑Nina rates the evidence blind - Dev 3, Gus 1, Fay 3 - and the pool splits by grade plus rating (6 / 2 / 6): Dev $5.97, Gus $1.99, Fay $5.97, each bond home. Fay, who said it did not help, earns what Dev earns: the direction never changes the pay.$0.00$3.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$11.42-$1.37
    🐻⚔️Ben challenges Dev's verdict with a $2.00 bond. The validator's re-check does not uphold it, so Ben's bond goes to Dev.$0.00$3.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$11.42-$1.37

    Epoch 2 at the $2.92 depth

    what happenedscorepoolmakerbondscollateralliquidityEDMcreator
    🔁Epoch 2 opens at 66.7% - the last score is the new opening price - at the $2.92 depth: the maker holds $3.21 after the shortfall, and the depth follows the maker.66.7%$0.00$3.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$11.42-$1.37
    🐮Ana backs it with $5.00: $4.75 buys 573.6 bull shares.93.4%$0.00$3.21$0.00$4.75$0.10$11.57-$1.37

    🐻Ben bets against it with $8.00: $7.75 buys 2024.8 bear shares.6.9%$0.00$3.21$0.00$17.25$0.30$11.87-$1.37
    ✋👓Dev, Fay and Hal take it, $2.00 each - the bond comes from the depth Nina chose, never from the working depth - and 10 onlookers buy the pass, $2.00 of it to the pool.$2.00$3.21$6.00$17.25$0.30$14.87$3.63
    ✋✋✋All 3 verdicts say "did not help", with evidence: the epoch settles at v = 0. A bear share pays $1.00, a bull share nothing: Ben $20.25 against $17.25 collected, Ana and Cara nothing. The maker covers the $3.00 shortfall and keeps $0.21; the $0.30 liquidity leg goes to Nina.5.0%$2.00$0.21$6.00$0.00$0.00$14.87$3.63
    👑Nina rates all 3 3; the pool pays $0.66 each, $0.02 carries, the bonds come home. A market that said "no" three times paid the people who proved it.$0.02$0.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$14.87$3.63

    Epoch 3 - paused at $0.07, resumed at $1.73

    what happenedscorepoolmakerbondscollateralliquidityEDMcreator
    ⏸️Epoch 3 opens at 5.0% with trading PAUSED: $0.21 bounds a depth of $0.07, below the $1.00 floor. Nina and every funder are told, with the amount that resumes it - $2.79. Taking, verdicts and the room go on.5.0%$0.02$0.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$14.87$3.63
    💧Sam funds the maker with $5.00 from his wallet: it holds $5.21, bounds $1.73 of depth, and trading resumes. Sam is a funder beside Nina now ($5.00 beside Nina's $3.47), and shares every liquidity leg pro rata.5.0%$0.02$5.21$0.00$0.00$0.00$14.87$3.63
    🐮Ana backs it again with $5.00: $4.75 buys 982.4 bull shares.93.9%$0.02$5.21$0.00$4.75$0.10$15.02$3.63
    🐻Ben bets against it again with $3.00: $2.75 buys 722.1 bear shares.19.2%$0.02$5.21$0.00$7.50$0.20$15.17$3.63
    ✋👓Dev, Fay and Hal take it again, $2.00 each into escrow - the bond is still the chosen depth's, whatever the working depth - and 10 onlookers buy the pass again, $2.00 of it to the pool.$2.02$5.21$6.00$7.50$0.20$18.17$8.63
    ✋✋✋3 takers file, two say it helped: v = 2 of 3 again. Ana $6.55, Ben $2.41, the $1.46 shortfall from the maker. The $0.20 liquidity leg splits by stake: Nina $0.08, Sam $0.12. Epoch 4 opens at 66.7% and $3.41; the takers' bonds wait for the rating.66.7%$2.02$3.75$6.00$0.00$0.00$18.17$8.63
    👑Nina rates all 3 3; at the window's close the pool pays $0.67 each and the bonds come home. Nothing is held on the action now - no position, no take, no bond - and the window has closed.$0.01$3.75$0.00$0.00$0.00$18.17$8.63
    👑Nina retires the action - nobody holds a position or a take. The maker goes back to its funders pro rata, Nina $1.54 and Sam $2.21, the pool's $0.01 residual to EDM, and the record stays: three epochs, three scores, every verdict with its evidence.$0.00$0.00$0.00$0.00$0.00$18.18$8.63

    What the 3 epochs say: the score moved from 50.0% to 66.7% on evidence, then to 5.0% when 3 takers proved it did not help; the people who did the action and proved it were paid for it, the backers were paid at the share the verdicts settled, the market thinned after a loss until a sponsor funded it, and Nina ended at $10.85 against $13.87 paid - the score is what everybody bought.
