Prediction markets are having a moment right now, with new variations launching constantly across different chains and platforms.

One that caught my attention recently is Cue—a fresh take on onchain opinion markets built on Solana. What sets it apart is the referral-only model for onboarding users, which creates an interesting community-driven approach.

The comparison to established players like Polymarket reveals where the space is heading. Rather than copying the same formula, these newer platforms are experimenting with different mechanics and distribution strategies to carve out their own niche in the prediction market ecosystem.

The prediction market is really heating up now, with new things emerging on every chain... I took a look at Cue on Solana. The invite-only launch approach is quite interesting, but I wonder if it can really retain users. Old players like Polymarket are there, and new platforms need real skills and talent to stand out. Will these new mechanism experiments produce good results, or are they just the prelude to another round of harvesting retail investors?

The prediction market is really hot right now, but this referral model... can it really retain users? It still seems to depend on who breaks through the circle first.

Hey Cue, I'm quite interested in this invitation-only gameplay, but I wonder if it can really outperform Polymarket.
