In the 2025 crypto sector, there’s a term you must remember: prediction markets. 🔥
This isn’t just some new concept being hyped up—it’s a nuclear-level opportunity that’s been forged with real money.
One decentralized prediction platform saw $3.2 billion in trading volume during the US election, a number that crushed the TVL of many top blockchains. Even more surreal, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) publicly stated that these platforms serve the “public interest” and aren’t considered traditional gambling.
With regulatory approval, capital is going wild.
Imagine these scenarios happening this year: On World Cup final night, on-chain prediction trading volume surpasses the global total of traditional betting companies; In the 24 hours before a Federal Reserve interest rate decision, on-chain probability predictions are more accurate than official economists; Someone who correctly predicts the next keyword in a tech mogul’s tweet achieves instant financial leap; Oscars, NBA Finals, political figures’ public statements—every major event’s outcome is “priced in” ahead of time by on-chain capital.
VCs are going crazy—top-tier firms have poured in at a $1.2 billion valuation into a prediction protocol within 45 days, and another leading fund has leaked internally: returns in this sector could be “a thousand times isn’t even enough.”
For those who missed early Bitcoin, missed the layer-1 narrative, or missed the MEME frenzy—this might be the last chance to take a seat at the table.
The rules of the game in 2025 have changed: either you use information asymmetry to profit from the market, or your principal becomes someone else’s gain.
In the prediction market sector, even a second’s hesitation costs you.

actually™ the liquidity dynamics on these prediction markets are fundamentally non-trivial... but sure, let's pretend 32b in volume during election hype means we've found alpha. show me the formal verification on sustainable orderbook depth, then we talk.

Another new narrative to fleece retail investors, this time it's prediction markets? Already seen too much of this, it'll be dead by next month.

Damn, another "1000x opportunity." Where's the person who said this last time?

Even a thousandfold return isn't enough; just listen for fun. It's better to first check whether the project team has run away.

Here comes another new way to scam retail investors. I've heard the term "1000x returns" at least a hundred times already.
