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.

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.

With Two Consecutive Quarters of Losses, Coinbase Must Rely on Paths Beyond Trading

Coinbase posted its second consecutive quarterly net loss of $359 million on $1.22 billion in revenue for Q2, highlighting its vulnerability to crypto market cycles where weaker prices and lower volatility reduce user trading. However, the report also reveals a strategic shift in its business model. Despite a 25% quarter-over-quarter decline in global spot trading volume, Coinbase increased its market share to a company-record 10.3%. This suggests its position as a compliant U.S. on-ramp is strengthening even in a cooler market. A key development is the diversification of revenue streams. Transaction revenue fell to $599 million, nearly equaling subscription and services revenue of $555 million. Stablecoin services, generating $292 million, are becoming a crucial revenue "floor." This income, derived from interest on the $20 billion average USDC balance held on its platform, is less tied to daily trading activity. Furthermore, while spot trading volume dropped significantly, derivatives volume held steady at $1.03 trillion. Coinbase is pushing to integrate spot, stablecoin, and derivatives liquidity to create a more interconnected and sticky ecosystem for users. The GAAP net loss includes non-cash expenses like stock-based compensation and crypto asset valuation changes. Its adjusted EBITDA remained positive at $208 million for the 14th straight quarter, indicating core operations can cover ongoing costs. The company is also reducing expenses to manage the downturn. The central question moving forward is whether Coinbase's growing market share, stablecoin revenues, and expanding product integration can sufficiently offset the inherent cyclicality of its core trading business during future market contractions.

In the Age of Artificial Intelligence, We Need 'Magicians,' Not 'Managers'

In the AI era, leadership must shift from management to magic. As knowledge rapidly expires, value shifts from what leaders know to what they can facilitate. Traditional "inside-out" management, driven by internal experience, is giving way to "outside-in" thinking focused on external opportunities, customer needs, and disruptive change. The core challenge is fostering new ideas that may invalidate existing knowledge. While technologies like steam, electricity, and AI provide the "skeleton" for innovation, it is human vision—connecting technology to customer dreams—that creates magic. Historical figures like Richard Arkwright and Eldridge R. Johnson succeeded not by inventing core technologies, but by reimagining work and business models from the outside in. Leaders must transition from controllers to "architects of flourishing." Their role is to design environments where empowerment, creativity, and adaptive learning thrive. This involves granting autonomy, fostering partnerships, and building resilient systems that scale innovation. Critical leadership qualities now include judgment, creativity, and the ability to learn continuously rather than relying on static expertise. Therefore, cultivating future leaders requires a focus on timeless fundamentals, humanities for broader perspective, and social acuity, rather than over-specialization in quickly outdated technical skills. The future rewards those who respond to the unseen and create conditions for better answers to emerge. Leadership in the AI age is less about having all the answers and more about enabling others to discover them—creating organizations where people explore, imagine, and thrive.
