How they differ in practice.
Manifold takes an account and no crypto deposit. Predict Fun takes a wallet, sits on BNB, and is ranked above Manifold because it is a real event book. The higher rank is not a reason to skip the practice step.

Predict Fun — editorial note
Predict Fun is #3 on the cash-and-crypto shortlist, not a tutorial site. Medium liquidity versus Polymarket means a headline TVL can still hide a wide spread.

Manifold — editorial note
Manifold is the top-five place to practice. Politics, AI, culture and sports show up as community markets. Leaving play money there is the point. It does not quote Predict Fun.
