Choosing Events

Last updated on Jul 25, 2026

In a nutshell

In Zanlo, there are two levels of content:

Topic is an event/context that groups several questions (Events).
Event is a specific question within a Topic. Each Event has exactly two possible outcomes: Yes and No, or two named outcomes. You choose one of them by making a Pick.

Choosing the right Event starts with selecting a Topic, then selecting a specific question (Event) that you understand.

How to Find Topics and Events

On the main screen (Home) you can:

• select a category;
• open a Topic — a group of Events around one event;
• within a Topic, select a specific Event (question).

In the bottom menu, you can go to the Search section and:

• search by Topic name or Event formulation;
• apply filters, if available in the interface.

Categories and What to Consider

Zanlo offers a wide range of Event categories, each with its own characteristics, data sources, and dynamics.
Some common examples include:

  • Sport — questions typically focus on match results, player performance, statistics, or actions of specific teams and athletes.

  • Crypto — outcomes may depend on market trends, price movements, and news developments.

  • Culture — questions often relate to public interest, online trends, or external events in the digital space.

Note: These are just a few examples. Zanlo regularly features many other categories, each with unique factors that may influence outcomes.

💡 Tip: It is recommended to start with categories you are more familiar with, as this can help you better understand how Events behave and make more informed decisions.

How to Read Topic and Event Cards

Event and Topic cards typically contain:

Topic name (context/event) or Event;
Trading end date (Ends) — the moment after which new actions on the Event cannot be performed;
Outcome prices — reflect the current distribution of user opinions;
Trading Volume — trading volume for the Event;
• Additional data blocks (history, statistics, live data), if available for that category.

Time and Event Status

Each Event has a trading deadline.
After trading closes, the Event transitions from Active status to subsequent stages (e.g., Waiting for the outcome), and then to completed status.
For details on statuses, see Event Status.

How to Choose the Right Event

When choosing an Event, it's helpful to consider:

• Understanding the formulation
Make sure the question is clear and unambiguous to you.
• Topic context
Sometimes one Topic contains several Events — choose the question that matches your logic and knowledge.
•Time until closing (Ends)
It's important to consider how much time remains until trading closes.
• Trading Volume
High trading volume means participant activity, but does not determine the Event outcome.
