In a nutshell
All Events on the Zanlo platform are created and published centrally.
Each Event undergoes editorial preparation and moderation before publication to ensure the question formulation is clear, unambiguous, and allows for correct outcome confirmation.
Users do not create Events themselves.
Who Creates Events
Events are formed by the Zanlo editorial team.
The platform team:
• monitors current Topics;
• formulates specific questions (Events) within Topics;
• verifies correctness and clarity of formulations;
• determines the trading deadline for Events;
• predetermines outcome confirmation rules.
Event Formulation Requirements
Each Event on Zanlo:
• represents one specific question;
• has exactly two possible outcomes: Yes and No, or two named outcomes;
• is formulated so the result can be confirmed objectively;
• does not allow ambiguous interpretation.
Events whose result cannot be correctly verified or unambiguously confirmed are not published.
Data Sources and Outcome Confirmation
For each Event, an outcome confirmation approach is predetermined — that is, rules and sources based on which the result will be recorded.
Depending on the Event type, the following may be used:
• official statistical data;
• data from certified information providers;
• official websites of organizations, leagues, or platforms;
• materials from verified news portals and registered media;
• other reliable public information sources.
ℹ️ In most cases, the source or outcome confirmation logic is indicated in the Event description. In some situations, the detailed source may not be published openly.
In all cases, outcome confirmation rules are determined before trading begins and are not changed during the process.
Pre-Publication Moderation
Before publication, each Event undergoes verification, including:
• formulation correctness;
• compliance with platform rules;
• absence of misleading content;
• presence of a predetermined outcome confirmation approach;
• correctly set trading deadline.
How Outcome Confirmation Happens (Resolving)
After trading closes, the Event:
-
transitions to Waiting for the outcome stage — trading is closed and the system awaits a confirmed result;
-
then the result verification process begins in accordance with predetermined rules and sources;
-
after verification is complete, the Event receives Resolved status, and the outcome is recorded.
The decision is made exclusively based on predetermined rules and sources, not subjective assessments.
Important to Remember
• Zanlo does not publish Events with undefined or unverifiable outcomes.
• Event formulation and outcome confirmation rules are fixed in advance.
• The platform does not change Event conditions after trading begins.
• Zanlo does not provide recommendations and does not influence user decisions.
