02 / TRADE THE ARGUMENT
Each weekly market is an ETH-backed pool of two outcomes. Buying A raises its market price; selling A lowers it. Wikimedia never sets the price.
The creator supplies liquidity and chooses the opening odds. LURK suggests last week’s pageview split as a useful starting point.
Choose A or B, enter ETH and confirm one transaction. The balance of the pool updates the price immediately.
Trading closes after Sunday. The oracle publishes only the final view totals; the winner’s tokens redeem for the collateral.
THE MARKET / INTERACTIVE EXAMPLE
Imagine the current pool price after buyers have traded.
These percentages come from pool reserves and trades.
Live Wikimedia counts appear separately as provisional information.
03 / PROOF OF LOOKING
Two pages. Two final counts. One result that settles the market. A small piece of paper for a very large opinion.
Every settlement receipt includes the source responses, capture times and final calculation. It proves the result; it never determines the trading price.

Capturing the source data…
No counts or percentages have been invented.
04 / READ THE SMALL PRINT
The source connection uses Wikimedia’s daily pageview data, available under CC0. Views are requests, not unique people. The “user” category filters known automated traffic; it does not guarantee human-only views.
V3 prices come only from outcome tokens bought from and sold into the onchain pool. The creator chooses the opening odds and supplies the initial ETH liquidity. The contracts have not received an independent audit.
After trading closes, the oracle publishes the final pageview totals and a public receipt. The contract derives A, B or a tie. The oracle cannot rewrite a live market price.
The planned pad token is a meme. It grants no claim on the market reserves. No $LURK token address, liquidity burn or team-allocation claim has been published.
05 / BEFORE YOU ASK
Curiosity is the whole point.
Any card marked LIVE · V3 opens a trade-driven mainnet market. Anyone can create the next weekly round for a catalog pair or two other English Wikipedia pages. V3 uses real ETH and has not received an independent audit.
The Wikimedia Pageviews API: English Wikipedia, all-access, user traffic. Each pair links to both articles; settlement receipts include the original responses, capture times and source URLs.
Each V3 market covers one complete Monday–Sunday round. Trading stops at the end of Sunday before the oracle can publish the final totals. A new week is a new market.
Every confirmed buy or sell changes the AMM reserves and therefore the price. Wikimedia updates are shown separately as provisional information and never reprice the pool.
The creator does. LURK proposes the previous complete week’s pageview ratio, but the creator can choose any opening probability from 5% to 95% and supplies the initial liquidity behind it.
Public data and receipts make a wrong result detectable, but the oracle remains a trust assumption. Its authority is narrow: after trading closes it can submit the two final totals once. The contract derives A, B or a tie and the oracle cannot set prices or withdraw reserves.
No. The attention split is source information. The onchain percentage is the pool’s marginal market price and changes only when people trade. The interface labels the two figures separately.
V3 creation is permissionless for two valid English Wikipedia pages. Appearing on LURK does not imply that a person participates in, endorses or has any connection to the project.
No. LURK is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Wikimedia Foundation. You do not own an article, its content or its subject.
