Edwin Munyui
Co-founder, Research & Strategy Lead
I oversee Prediction Frontier’s research agenda, editorial direction and strategic development. My work examines how prediction markets are evolving as a global financial and information sector; from platform growth, liquidity and user behaviour to regulation, institutional participation and the infrastructure supporting event-based trading. I lead flagship reports, market analysis and industry coverage designed to give operators, investors and policymakers a clearer view of where the sector is heading. My background spans more than eight years across Web3 research, financial markets, digital assets and B2B industry intelligence. At Prediction Frontier, I bring that experience to building rigorous, independent coverage of the prediction economy while contributing to informed policy and market-development conversations in Kenya and beyond.
