Gnosis is a decentralized prediction market built on the Ethereum protocol. Gnosis provides an open platform for anyone to predict the outcome of any event and plans to drastically simplify the creation of customized prediction market applications.

Gnosis Facts
The platform includes a multisig wallet as well as an auction based decentralized Dutch Exchange.
Besides the main product of Gnosis which is the decentralized prediction market, the Gnosis team also work on an auction based exchange called DutchX and a multisig wallet. In an auction based exchange, there are discrete windows for traders to submit buy and sell orders. First, all asks are collected during a time period before the auction starts. Then, once the auction has started, the buyers submit their bid at the point in time where the current price reflects their maximum willingness to pay.
Gnosis includes two types of tokens: Gnosis (GNO) and OWL
Gnosis includes two types of tokens: Gnosis (GNO) and OWL. GNO are the ERC20 tokens that the team sold during their ICO. They created 10 million GNO tokens and aren’t minting any additional ones. These are the tokens that you see being traded on the open market
By staking GNO, you receive OWL tokens. To do this, you must lock your GNO in a smart contract making them non-transferable. The amount of OWL you receive is dependent on the length of your lock period as well as the total supply of OWL tokens in the market. The team is aiming to have 20x more total OWL than the average amount of monthly OWL usage over the previous 3 months.
