Choosing between
centralized and decentralized prediction market architectures depends on the business's operational model, transaction requirements, custody preferences, and level of blockchain integration. Centralized prediction markets generally use backend trading engines and managed databases to process orders, maintain user accounts, manage liquidity, and settle positions through platform-controlled infrastructure. Decentralized prediction markets rely on blockchain networks and smart contracts to execute trades, manage tokenized positions, and automate settlement. While centralized models offer greater control over platform operations and trading workflows, decentralized models provide on-chain transaction transparency and programmable execution.
