Augur is an decentralized prediction protocol built on Ethereum.
What is Augur?
Augur aims to incentivize a global network of computers to keep a prediction market platform running on top of Ethereum (ETH). A prediction market is similar to an exchange in that users wager on the outcome of events rather than trading assets. Augur allows users to create and trade "shares" representing a portion of the value of outcomes without relying on a company to create or manage these markets.
