Rückblick: Prediction Markets vs Umfragen bei der Bundestagswahl 2025
The 2025 federal election showcased the predictive power of decentralised information aggregation across prediction markets:
- Market participants assigned CDU/CSU victory substantially higher probability weights ahead of traditional survey organisations
- Coalition composition scenarios—whether CDU/CSU paired with SPD or the Greens—were more accurately captured by market pricing than by political analysts
- The prospect of AfD securing second place gained market recognition considerably before mainstream commentary acknowledged this trajectory
