arXiv:2512. 02436v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Prediction markets allow users to trade on outcomes of real-world events, but are prone to fragmentation with overlapping questions, implicit equivalences, and hidden contradictions across markets.

The paper introduces a continuously synchronized dataset suite covering the entire lifecycle of decentralized prediction markets, from market creation to final settlement. It integrates market metadata, fill-level trading records, and oracle-resolution events into a unified relational system, providing over 3.29 million market records, 1.90 billion order executions, and 21 million oracle events from October 2020 to the present. The authors detail the data model, collection pipeline, and consistency mechanisms, and demonstrate the dataset’s usefulness for sports betting, economic forecasting, and blockchain research, with public access via a website and interactive tools.

The paper introduces FABench, a scalable backtesting environment designed to evaluate forecasting agents. FABench automatically discovers events, generates questions, and resolves outcomes for any past forecast date, allowing continuous renewal beyond model training cutoffs. In initial tests, retrieval improves Brier scores across eight models, with top agents matching or surpassing market consensus on 54 Polymarket-linked questions, yet analysis shows persistent evidence‑weighting failures that highlight room for improvement.

arXiv:2607. 10286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly used in trading systems, where model reasoning, tool use, and continual decisions incur costs that are expected to produce trading value.

The paper introduces Agentic Context Cracking, a technique that adaptively and speculatively structures unstructured data during the reasoning process of large language model agents. By creating a sub-agent that extracts useful structure from documents as they are opened, the method reduces the need to repeatedly read large files, cutting token usage by 53% on the FanOutQA benchmark while maintaining accuracy. Over time, more queries are answered using the accumulated structured data, approaching the efficiency of a database lookup.

The study investigates how large language models (LLMs) perform in a double auction market, a common economic mechanism. By replacing human participants with LLM agents, the authors find that markets with LLMs converge more slowly or not at all, leading to less efficient resource allocations. Analysis of trading decisions reveals significant variation across model families and roles, and a lexical study of Chain-of-Thought traces links trade execution to a shift from strategic thinking to urgency.
