Abstract

Prediction markets are a hot topic in the crypto community, with significant activity on BNB Chain. According to Dune data, three platforms dominate: Opinion leads with 75% market share and $125M in daily volume, followed by PancakeSwap's Probable at 14.5% ($24M), and predict.fun, founded by dingaling, at 10.5% ($17M). All three are backed by YZi Labs. **Opinion**, a Binance Labs MVB alum, raised a $5M seed round. It runs a points program with weekly rewards. A special Christmas/New Year event offers 100k points for activities like daily trading, high volume, and using Binance Wallet. **predict.fun**, founded by NFT influencer dingaling, allows users to earn yield on capital locked in predictions. It airdropped initial points to active BNB Chain users. Its first weekly points event concludes soon, with a second starting immediately after. **Probable**, incubated by PancakeSwap, focuses on a zero-fee, fully on-chain experience using UMA's Oracle for dispute resolution. It supports predictions on various events and allows deposits in any token, auto-swapped to USDT. A points system based on trading volume is imminent and is already tracking user activity.

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. (For more interaction tutorials, read: Step-by-Step Guide to Participating in CZ-Supported predict.fun)

Today, predict.fun officially announced on platform X that the first week points activity will end at 10 PM Beijing time tonight. Prediction points rewards and other additional airdrop rewards will be credited to users' personal accounts in 3 days, and the leaderboard will also be updated. 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.

Goldman Sachs: July Smashes Through Crowded Trades, U.S. Stock Bull Market Not Broken but Harder to Navigate

Goldman Sachs: July Sees Crowded Trades Unwound, U.S. Bull Market Intact but Getting Tougher. The U.S. stock market in July did not see an index-level crash, but rather a significant unwinding of speculative positions. While the S&P 500 remained stable—trading within a narrow 3.5% range and staying within 2% of its high—underlying market dynamics were volatile. Heavily crowded trades, particularly in high-momentum tech, AI-linked stocks, and Asian strategies, faced severe pressure and forced deleveraging. Data indicates this was a meaningful cleanse, not a minor adjustment. Global tech exposure saw its largest sell-off in over five years, leverage in Korean equity ETFs plummeted, and Goldman's prime brokerage recorded the largest gross exposure reduction since late 2022. Leverage on momentum factors among fundamental long/short clients fell to the 28th percentile of its one-year range. The AI trade narrative shifted from pure potential to a focus on tangible returns. While Meta failed to show clear AI monetization, Microsoft and Amazon provided evidence that massive capital expenditure is translating into scalable revenue and product growth, preventing a blanket sell-off of the AI sector. The Federal Reserve's more opaque communication style and volatility in long-end Treasury yields have introduced new friction, particularly for rate-sensitive growth and tech stocks. The broader outlook for U.S. equities remains favorable, supported by a strong economy, robust earnings, and substantial AI capital expenditure. However, risk/reward is no longer cheap, and the market's upward elasticity has weakened. The Nasdaq 100's trajectory—up 12% year-to-date despite significant pullbacks—illustrates that the bull trend persists but the path is becoming more difficult. The key lesson from July is that the market no longer rewards crowded, highly leveraged trades, requiring more disciplined and liquid portfolio approaches.

Interview with Robinhood Executive: Meme + Tokenized US Stocks as "Barbell" Customer Acquisition Strategy, All Business Lines Achieve Hundreds of Millions in Revenue

Interview with Robinhood executive Johann Kerbrat reveals the company's "barbell" customer acquisition strategy for its new Robinhood Chain, combining meme tokens with tokenized stocks. Three weeks after mainnet launch, the chain has seen over $3B in weekly DEX volume and 105M transactions. Kerbrat explains the logic behind the permissionless chain: meme tokens attract DeFi users, while tokenized real-world assets (RWA), currently over 90 US stocks and ETFs accessible in 120+ countries, serve global users. The goal is to bring Robinhood's 27 million funded accounts on-chain by simplifying DeFi with a user-friendly interface, exemplified by features like Robinhood Earn which offers yield without requiring wallet management. Built on Arbitrum's technology stack for its speed, low cost, and Ethereum's security, the chain focuses on financial products like Earn, spot trading, and perpetuals. Kerbrat downplays direct competition with platforms like Base, emphasizing the goal of expanding the overall market for on-chain assets. He details selective partnerships (e.g., Morpho, Lighter) based on compliance, unique UX, and differentiation. While regulatory clarity is pending for US perpetuals, the expansion continues via Bitstamp in Europe. Finally, Kerbrat positions Robinhood as a "super app" integrating stocks, options, crypto, banking, and AI trading, with all major business lines generating hundreds of millions in revenue. For the chain, current priority is driving adoption over maximizing gas fee revenue.

Fidelity Q3 Report: BTC, ETH, and SOL Continue to Build Bottoms; How Much Further Will This Crypto Bear Market Go?

Fidelity's Q3 Crypto Signal Report analyzes the current bear market, noting Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL) are in a prolonged bottoming phase. Key indicators like the weighted Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) have turned negative (-0.01), signaling the market is slightly below its aggregate cost basis, with BTC acting as the primary stabilizing asset. BTC's dominance has risen to 68%, indicating a lack of capital rotation to other digital assets. Performance has been weak across the board, with BTC, ETH, and SOL down significantly year-to-date. Market sentiment is depressed, exacerbated by substantial outflows from spot ETPs and a challenging macro environment. The report compares the current ~203-day downtrend to historical ~300-day bottoming cycles, suggesting the process may be two-thirds complete, with late 2026 as a potential timeframe to monitor. For Bitcoin, NUPL at 0.09 indicates cautious sentiment, while momentum signals remain negative. The Yardstick metric points to potential undervaluation relative to network security (hashrate). Ethereum's NUPL is deep in the "capitulation" zone at -0.43, a historically positive signal for future returns, though its momentum and network fee revenue are negative. Solana shows the deepest NUPL at -0.72 but demonstrates relative resilience in on-chain activity and stablecoin transfer volume. The report concludes that while several metrics are near historical capitulation levels, a definitive market bottom has not yet been established. The path forward likely involves continued consolidation, with BTC's relative strength and fundamental on-chain usage for ETH and SOL providing key areas for investor observation.
