Mannifold suffers from a problem that long term bets are not profitable due to the time of payout. To try to combat that, they recently implemented a loan feature that allows 1.5% loaned per day, on all positions on collateral.
I want to test if that loan feature is working. If it's working, Mannifold should have a very low discount rate, as this is free money.
Will resolve per data taken from the below market, using an average of data taken from 6/30/25, 12/31/25, 6/30/26, which I will annualize (per year interest rate). Adjustments will be made accordingly for figures maxing out at 99%.

@WilliamGunn Then that indicates the discount rate is higher if people are selling vs waiting for the guaranteed payout later.
