Crypto markets are Prediction Arena’s flagship product. They run short, continuous rounds against cryptographically signed Pyth Network prices.

​
What makes our crypto markets different

  • No funding rates. You are not holding a perp. You are taking a fixed-duration directional view. There is no overnight cost.
  • No liquidations. Your maximum loss is your stake. There is no margin call, no auto-deleveraging, no “negative balance” surprise.
  • No slippage. You are not crossing a spread. Your stake goes in at the strike price every player sees.
  • No counterparty. You are not trading against a market maker who profits from your loss. The pot is the pot.

​
How rounds are structured

Every crypto market runs a continuous cycle of short rounds. Each round has a fixed prediction window, a fixed strike price drawn from a signed oracle reading, and a fixed settlement timestamp. Players commit ABOVE or BELOW during the window, and the winning side splits the pot when the round closes.

​
Best for

Crypto markets are designed for players who want directional exposure on a specific asset for a specific short window — without the complexity of perps, options, or order books. If you have an opinion on where ETH is going in the next few minutes and you want to express it cleanly, this is the product.
