Bitcoin isn't a prediction market — it's a prediction stack.
The hash race is the bottom layer (random search).
Above it sits an economic layer where miners continuously predict energy prices, fee demand, and chain-tip outcomes.
BAO prediction markets just move that same predictive behavior from Bitcoin's internal mechanics to the external world.
