InfoFi | Crypto

Information Finance (InfoFi) is an emerging category of applications that create tradable markets around exotic, non-price signals. Polymarket laid the groundwork with event-driven prediction markets, while newer applications like Noise, Ethos, and Narrative are pushing the boundaries with markets for mindshare, credibility, and quantitative metrics.
