Using Hilo
Learn how to vote, create markets, and interact on the platform
This guide explains how to use Hilo’s core features, including voting, creating markets, commenting, and tracking your rewards.
How to Vote
Voting is how you share your prediction on a market.
You can vote in two ways:
From the market card (outside the market)
From inside the market page
Both methods work the same way.
Voting Rules
When you cast a vote:
A short cancellation timer starts
During this time, you can cancel your vote if you misclicked or changed your mind
To cancel, click the X button
Once the timer ends, your vote becomes final
After that, you cannot change it
This system prevents accidental voting while keeping outcomes stable.
Single-Vote vs Multi-Vote Markets
Not all markets work the same way.
Some markets:
Allow only one vote
Others:
Allow multiple votes
Each market clearly shows what type it is before you vote.
How to Create a Market
