System and method for verified predictions and performance

A machine readable and non-transitory medium having information recorded thereon for communication, wherein the information, once read by the machine, causes the machine to perform the following steps:

• creating a communication chain comprising a plurality of chain units, each of which operates independently to provide a different prediction service associated with a prediction generated for a prompt, wherein the plurality of chain units form the communication chain, providing prediction services for different aspects of a prediction, including soliciting a prediction with respect to a prompt, providing a prediction for a prompt, verifying a prediction, and facilitating access to a prediction;
• receiving a request for a requested prediction operation relating to one of the aspects of the prediction services associated with a query prompt, wherein the requested operation is directed to one of soliciting a prediction, providing a prediction, verifying a prediction, and accessing a prediction;
• if one of the plurality of chain units corresponds to the query prompt, directing the request to the chain unit for carrying out the requested operation;
• and
• if none of the plurality of chain units is associated with the query prompt,
• creating an additional chain unit for the query prompt,
• adding the additional chain unit to the communication chain to create an updated communication chain, and
• directing the request to the additional chain unit in the updated communication chain for carrying out the requested operation.

A system, comprising:

• a communication chain comprising a plurality of chain units, each of which operates independently to provide a different prediction service associated with a prediction generated for a prompt, wherein the plurality of chain units form the communication chain, providing prediction services for different aspects of a prediction, including soliciting a prediction with respect to a prompt, providing a prediction for a prompt, verifying a prediction, and facilitating access to a prediction;
• and
• a prediction service platform implemented by a processor and configured for
• receiving a request for a requested prediction operation relating to one of the aspects of the prediction services associated with a query prompt, wherein the requested operation is directed to one of soliciting a prediction, providing a prediction, verifying a prediction, and accessing a prediction,
• if one of the plurality of chain units corresponds to the query prompt, directing the request to the chain unit for carrying out the requested operation, and
• if none of the plurality of chain units is associated with query prompt,
• creating an additional chain unit for the query prompt,
• adding the additional chain unit to the communication chain to create an updated communication chain, and
• directing the request to the additional chain unit in the updated communication chain for carrying out the requested operation.
