Augur is a fully decentralized prediction market platform. (What does this mean? See
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yegyih591Jo for an intro!) I'm very happy to announce that we've just started our alpha test! This is a public alpha, so everyone is welcome to come try out Augur and help us test drive it.
There are two ways to use Augur:
1. If you're not comfortable using a terminal, we have a no-download, immediately usable version at:
http://demo.augur.net. (We call this our "demo", but it is a live, fully decentralized blockchain -- you're just using our server's unlocked account!)
2. If you're more technologically savvy and really want to help us test the software, please go to
http://www.augur.net/blog/the-augur-alpha-is-now-available-to-download for download/installation/launch instructions.
If you get stuck or have questions, please shoot me an email (
