In the past year I've become more impressed with Gnosis as a more open and versatile toolkit for creating PMs. In particular, the addition of a DAO-based crypto, and Dutch Auctions.

A decentralised blockchain platform for betting on real world outcomes - including the assassination of political leaders- has been added to a Nasdaq crypto-related index and will soon be open to investors.
Exante, a global brokerage brand has released the decentralised finance index - Defix <https://defix.fund/>, which includes the controversial prediction market platform, Augur, as well as Amoveo and 0x.
“In the future, consumers will have the ability to invest in the index through a Defix fund, granting exposure to decentralised finance blockchain projects through a secure, financially accredited agency,” says Defix. <https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/defix-nasdaq-lists-defx-a-new-decentralized-finance-index-for-blockchain-markets-300914278.html> Augur <https://www.augur.net/> is described <https://media.consensys.net/assassination-markets-come-to-augur-594150040ea7> as a set of open source smart contracts that can be deployed to the Ethereum blockchain, enabling users to create their own prediction markets.
