Galaxy Research: conditional markets are taking off. Decision markets, where traders bet on a proposal's outcome and the market result decides whether it's adopted, now govern 50.5M USD across 22 DAOs.

Galaxy Research groups decision and impact markets under "conditional markets," which settle only when a specified outcome occurs. It reports $50.5 million in total value managed by decision markets across 22 DAOs, with MetaDAO accounting for 21 of them and 78% of assets; stablecoin value alone is $35.8 million, 82% MetaDAO-controlled. Umia's September launch brought multi-outcome decision markets to EVM chains, letting one deposit cover every outcome. Galaxy says impact markets are moving through beta toward mainnet.
