Restaked capital can be a powerful tool to increase the cost of attack/likelihood of whale manipulation on a prediction market resolving mechanism like UMA. Simple example: instead of 100% of the voting power being in $UMA, we can design a system that requires agreement from both $UMA and (harder to manipulate) restaked $ETH stake. There are many ways to design such a system and it might not even require slashing and use stake purely for signaling -- resulting in a very low cost of capital that's further amplified through the ability to restake across use cases. We at @symbioticfi are interested to support PoCs and brainstrom around this with teams building in the prediction market space. Get in touch if you're interested to chat!
