Opinion: The Leader in BNB Chain's Prediction Market Ecosystem, Launched Christmas & New Year Points Activity Yesterday

Opinion is the first prediction market platform on the BNB Chain ecosystem. According to ROOTDATA data, Opinion announced the completion of a $5 million seed round financing on March 18 this year. This round was led by YZi Labs, with participation from echo, Animoca Ventures, Manifold, Amber Group, and others. Additionally, Opinion was one of the 4 best-performing projects in the previous Binance Labs MVB program.

Points Rules

Opinion points are allocated on a weekly basis, with a total of 100,000 points rewarded per week. The rules are as follows:

1. Trading volume requirement: ≥ $200 per week (and a single order ≥ $10) to be counted for points.

2. Holding time: The larger the position and the longer the holding time → the higher the points.

3. Liquidity orders (limit orders): Limit order amount ≥ $10 to count for points; the longer the order is placed and the closer the price is to the best bid/ask → the more points; limit orders have 0 fees and add points weight, making them the most stable way to earn points (market orders charge about 2% fees).

4. Trading volume and fees: The higher the transaction volume and the more fees contributed, the more points earned.

Christmas & New Year Points Activity

Yesterday (December 22), Opinion announced on platform X the launch of the Christmas & New Year points activity. Specific details are as follows:

  • Activity reward: A total of 100,000 points;
  • Activity period: From December 22 to January 5, 2026, lasting two weeks;
  • Ways to earn points: Daily Warriors, 20,000 points total (trade > 3 times daily, and meet the requirement for > 10 days); Volume Kings: 20,000 points total (daily trading volume > $2,000, and meet the requirement for > 10 days); Binance Wallet Elite: 10,000 points total (accumulated trading volume during the activity > $2,000); Diamond Hands: 20,000 points total; Mystery Finale: 30,000 points total.

Additionally, some notes on the ways to earn points:

  • Diamond Hands reward: Allocated based on the time-weighted open positions of all users during the activity period, data comes from regular platform snapshots;
  • Daily Warriors and Volume Kings rewards: Wallets that meet the corresponding daily trading threshold for at least 10 days during the activity period will share the respective rewards;
  • Binance Wallet Elite reward: Users who complete a cumulative trading volume > $2,000 during the activity period via Binance Wallet will share the reward. This reward requires using a keyless address or a newly imported wallet; old wallets already registered with OPINION are not eligible.

predict.fun: Founder is NFT field renowned figure dingaling, First Week Points Activity Ends Tonight at 10 PM

predict.fun is a prediction market platform launched on BNB Chain, founded by the previously well-known figure in the NFT field, dingaling. Unlike traditional prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, predict.fun has implemented a key innovation: funds used by users to participate in predictions are no longer idle but can simultaneously generate additional returns during the prediction period.

On December 17, predict.fun's founder dingaling announced on platform X that the platform is officially open and has airdropped initial points to Meme traders on BNB Chain, Aster participants, and active users of various prediction markets.

Additionally, the second week points activity will start immediately after the first week activity ends.

Probable: Prediction Market Incubated by PancakeSwap, Points System Coming Soon

On December 16, PancakeSwap announced the launch of Probable, a fully on-chain prediction market platform incubated by them (platform language supports switching to Simplified Chinese). This project is jointly supported by PancakeSwap and YZi Labs and will be exclusively deployed on BNB Chain. PancakeSwap stated that Probable is an independent project, and its team will advance product development and ecosystem expansion with the support of PancakeSwap and YZi Labs.

According to the introduction, Probable is positioned as a user-centric on-chain prediction platform, featuring zero fees, fully on-chain settlement, and a simplified user experience. Initially, the platform will not charge prediction fees. Relying on BNB Chain's low-cost and high-performance infrastructure, it supports users to predict cryptocurrency trends, global events, sports events, and some regional characteristic markets.

At the mechanism level, Probable uses UMA's Optimistic Oracle as an event adjudication tool, achieving result confirmation through a dispute-based verification method to enhance the transparency and censorship resistance of the prediction market. Additionally, users can top up with any token, and the system will automatically exchange it for USDT on BNB Chain for participation in predictions, lowering the operational barrier.

Currently, Probable's points system has not yet been launched. According to official information, a new points system is coming soon. Points will be calculated based on users' trading volume, and the backend has already started counting and accumulating users' current trading volume.

Breaking: GPT-5.6 Prices Slashed Effective Today

OpenAI has announced significant price cuts for its GPT-5.6 model API, effective immediately. The entry-level **GPT-5.6 Luna** sees the most drastic reduction, with input prices dropping 80% to $0.20 per million tokens and output prices falling to $1.20 per million tokens. The mid-tier **GPT-5.6 Terra** is reduced by 20%, now costing $2.00 (input) and $12.00 (output) per million tokens. The flagship **GPT-5.6 Sol** maintains its original price but introduces a new **Fast mode**, offering speeds up to 2.5 times faster for double the cost. The company attributes these price reductions to efficiency gains achieved through **GPT-5.6 Sol's own involvement in optimizing its production systems**. The model assisted in rewriting GPU kernels and improving speculative decoding, leading to a 20% reduction in end-to-end service costs and over 15% improvement in token generation efficiency. OpenAI emphasizes this process remained human-led. A key focus of the降价 is to lower the barrier for running **AI agent workflows**. By making the capable, tool-calling Luna model significantly cheaper, OpenAI aims to enable more frequent use in cost-sensitive, high-volume tasks like code review and monitoring. This creates a potential feedback loop: model-assisted efficiency gains lead to lower costs, which enables broader agent deployment, which in turn drives further optimization. The new pricing and features will also apply to Codex and ChatGPT Work subscriptions. The changes intensify competition in the large language model market, with OpenAI directly challenging rivals like Anthropic to respond.

South Koreans' 'Gambling Nature' is Actually Forced by Life

This article explores how systemic pressures in South Korea, rather than inherent "gambling" tendencies, drive widespread speculative financial behavior. It begins by noting the high frequency of flights from South Korea to Macau, symbolizing the search for outlets beyond domestic restrictions. The core argument is that ordinary life goals—stable employment, home ownership, and financial security—have become increasingly tied to asset markets due to structural economic factors. South Korea's development model, historically reliant on corporate leverage (chaebols), has evolved into a society where household debt and personal leverage are normalized as pathways to social mobility. Key mechanisms discussed include: * **Housing Policy:** Government measures to improve affordability, like extending mortgage terms to 50 years and the unique *jeonse* (key money) rental system, embed high leverage into the housing market. * **Financial Products:** The recent approval and explosive popularity of single-stock 2x leveraged ETFs (e.g., on Samsung and SK Hynix), easily accessed via mobile apps, lowered barriers to high-risk trading. * **Social Pressure:** Media narratives around soaring corporate profits (e.g., SK Hynix) and employee bonuses create a fear of missing out, pushing individuals to use leverage to "catch up." The article concludes that this "leveraged life" is a product of institutional history and policy choices. When traditional paths to success feel constrained, and policy facilitates debt-based solutions for housing and investment, speculative behavior becomes a rational, if risky, strategy for many. The rapid cycle of regulatory approval for leveraged ETFs followed by a market crash and official apology in mid-2026 exemplifies the system's inherent contradictions. Ultimately, the "bet" is not just on assets, but on using future earnings to secure a place in the present society.
