# **⚙️** Tracks
**1) General Track Projects:**
Any project revolving around prediction markets, be it a tool, integration, API, platform, infrastructure, etc., is welcome to submit. Refer Ideas tab to see some references.
**Recommended Prediction Market Themes:**
- Niche Prediction Markets
- Protocols / Infrastructure for Prediction Markets
- Social/GenZ
- Creative Thematic Apps
**2) YZi Labs Preferred Projects:**
- UMA’s Optimistic Oracle (OO), which Polymarket depends on, is decentralized and transparent but slow (24–48h resolution). Opportunity: domain-specific or AI-assisted oracles for faster, contextual resolution. (*CZ also mentions prediction market oracles as an opportunity area*)- UMA OO can be vulnerable in low-liquidity, low-attention markets. Opportunity: build cross-protocol incentive layers to reward honest disputes, or autonomous dispute-bot networks to detect manipulation.
- Prediction markets still feel like DeFi dApps: complex wallets, bridging, and gas. Opportunity: leverage account abstraction and gasless UX to make prediction markets feel like normal apps.
- Polymarket covers only well-defined, publicly verifiable events. Opportunity: solve for subjective or multi-stage predictions
- Liquidity is spread across many small markets. Opportunity: aggregators, routing layers, or AMM-style liquidity pools to concentrate and reuse capital efficiently.
### **Don’t just predict the future. Build it.**
