As an innovator in the field of technology, I'm always on the lookout for emerging tools that can revolutionize how we use the Internet. Recently, there's been buzz about a new technology that promises to enhance user experience online. Considering the potential impact such a development could have, I'm proposing a market to explore its efficacy. This market aims to predict whether this new technology will be effective for Internet users by the year 2025. Effectiveness will be determined by widespread adoption and positive feedback from reliable tech news outlets and user reviews. Should credible sources, such as industry-standard tech news outlets, report positive outcomes for a significant portion of internet users stemming from this technology by the end date, the market will resolve YES. However, if the technology fails to meet expectations or lacks significant adoption, the market will resolve NO. As the market creator, I won't be participating in the betting myself.

What are sweepstakes markets?
There are two types of markets on Manifold: play money and sweepstakes.
By default all markets are play money and use mana. These markets allow you to win more mana but do not award any prizes which can be cashed out.
Selected markets will have a sweepstakes toggle. These require sweepcash to participate and allow winners to withdraw any sweepcash won to real money.
As play money and sweepstakes markets are independent of each other, they may have different odds even though they share the same question and comments.
