Discussion Thread

What Is a Discussion Thread?

A Discussion Thread is a community-driven interaction format that allows participants to express support for different viewpoints around a topic.

Rather than predicting outcomes, participants allocate support to perspectives with which they agree, contributing to a collective signal that reflects community sentiment over time.

Can I Create My Own Discussion Thread?

Yes. Any user can create a Discussion Thread without permission.

Each thread must include at least two viewpoints to encourage participants to engage.

How Do Discussion Threads Work?

When a Discussion Thread is created, it is assigned a default interaction period of 30 days.

During the active period, participants may collectively vote to extend the discussion window.

To extend the interaction period, the extension request must receive support equal to 20 percent of the current total allocated support within the thread. This threshold is based on the total allocated value, not the number of participants.

Each successful extension adds 7 additional days to the discussion. There is no limit to how many extensions can occur.

When the discussion period ends, the outcome is determined by aggregate community support across the available viewpoints.

The viewpoint receiving the highest level of support is recognized as the prevailing community perspective.

Discussion Threads are resolved entirely through on-chain community participation and do not rely on external data sources or oracles.

The total allocation of support across all viewpoints always represents full participation within the thread.
