HivePredict Now Has Auto Resolving Commodities Markets

On HivePredict one of the features I wanted to launch with was auto resolving markets where data is obtained from an official source and used to automatically pay out on the resolution date/time. We've got Crypto and Sports for auto resolving markets, but the hot topic right now is oil and of course other markets like Gold and Silver.

So, I added in some commodities for auto resolving markets.

I've created a market for Brent Oil which automatically gets the price from investing.com: https://hivepredict.app/markets/ae9fb901-9cc3-4a6e-bb0e-2d0bb074c086

As you can now see we have for crypto:

• Bitcoin
• Ethereum
• HIVE
• Solana
• Dogecoin
• BNB

For commodities we have:

• Gold
• Silver
• Copper
• Crude Oil
• Brent Oil

This means instead of waiting for a market to be manually resolved, it just happens because we have a source of truth for the data. I plan on adding in additional auto market data types, as I prefer as many markets as possible are driven by real data and not manually verified outcomes (which are slower and more time consuming).

I also used this as a good opportunity to fix up the UX for the create market screen.

Previously we had like 9 tile items and it was a mess, so things are now within categories and a lot easier to choose from and less confusing (which is why I think people weren't using auto markets for markets where it would have been better if they did).
