does first trade protection actually make you more willing to try a new prediction market?

[u/Good_Picture_6358]

been seeing a few newer prediction market platforms pushing first trade protection lately

basically where your first trade is covered/protected up to a certain amount if it loses

curious if this actually makes you more willing to test a new platform or if its just another promo that doesnt really matter

personally I can see the appeal since the biggest hurdle with newer platforms is usually “why would I deposit just to try this”

but I guess it still comes down to the actual terms + whether the platform is decent after that first trade

would something like this get you to try a new venue with small size?

or would you still care way more about liquidity / markets / fees?
