A Guide to Binance Wallet Prediction Markets
Key Takeaways
Prediction markets allow participants to take positions on the outcomes of future events across categories like sports, finance, politics, culture, and crypto.
Binance Wallet Prediction Markets integrate a third-party decentralized protocol (Predict.fun) on BNB Smart Chain (BSC), accessible directly through the Binance app.
Users trade YES or NO shares priced between $0.01 and $0.99. Winning shares pay out $1.00 per share when the market resolves; losing shares become worthless.
A dedicated Prediction Account, powered by Binance Wallet Keyless technology, is created automatically (no manual wallet setup is required).
Introduction
Prediction markets offer a way for users to trade on the probability of real-world events. From sports outcomes to economic indicators and cultural moments, these markets turn collective opinion into tradeable positions.
Binance Wallet Prediction Markets bring this concept into the Binance app, giving users a way to access decentralized prediction markets without needing to pay gas fees or manage external wallets. This guide covers what prediction markets are, how they work on Binance, and how to get started.
What Are Prediction Markets?
Prediction markets are platforms where users can buy and sell shares based on the expected outcome of future events. Each event typically has two outcomes, YES and NO, each represented by a share with a price between $0.01 and $0.99.
The price of a share reflects the market's collective belief about the probability of that outcome. For example, if a "Yes" share is priced at $0.72 in a sufficiently liquid market, it suggests the market estimates roughly a 72% chance of the event occurring.
When the event concludes and the market resolves:
Winning shares pay out $1.00 each.
Losing shares become worth $0.00 and are cleared from the account.
This mechanism essentially creates a market-driven probability estimate, where prices shift dynamically based on supply and demand as users place their positions.
How Do Prediction Markets Work on Binance?
Binance Wallet Prediction Markets integrate a third-party decentralized prediction market protocol called Predict.fun (built on the BNB Smart Chain). Binance acts as an access layer, meaning it aggregates and displays these markets within the Binance app but does not create events or act as a counterparty to trades.
Here are some notable aspects of the integration:
On-chain execution: All trades are executed on-chain through Predict.fun's protocol on BSC.
Gasless trading: Binance Wallet sponsors gas fees for trading and settlement, so users don't need to hold BNB for gas.
Keyless wallet infrastructure: Trades are executed through Binance Wallet's MPC (Multi-Party Computation) Keyless technology, removing the need for manual key management.
Spot balance integration: Users can fund predictions directly from their existing Spot or Funding Account balances.
Markets span multiple categories, including sports, economics, world events, culture, and crypto.
How to Get Started (Mobile App)
Follow the steps below to get started with Binance Wallet Prediction Markets:
Update your Binance App to the latest version.
Open the app, switch to the Exchange view.
Tap [Markets] at the bottom of your screen. Select the [Prediction] tab at the top to browse available markets and probability pricing.
When placing your first order, a setup guide will appear to create your Prediction Account. A Keyless Wallet is generated and linked to your account — no manual wallet setup is needed.
You can use your Spot or Funding Account balances to fund trades or transfer USDT to your Prediction Account in advance under [Assets] → [Prediction] → [Transfer].
Please note that Prediction Markets may not be available in certain regions.
How to Place a Prediction
Once your Prediction Account is ready, follow these steps to place a prediction:
Navigate to [Markets] → [Prediction] and select an event.
Choose your predicted outcome: YES or NO.
Select your order type:
Market order: Executes immediately at the best available price.
Limit order: Executes only at your specified price or better. Unmatched portions remain open and can be partially filled or canceled.
Enter the order amount (usually in USDT). The potential payout will be calculated automatically.
Review the details and tap [Confirm] to submit your order.
You can track your open positions and order history under [Assets] → [Prediction].
Market Phases and Resolution
Each prediction market moves through three phases:
Phase 1: Market ongoing (open for trading)
The market is live and actively trading. Share prices fluctuate based on the live order book and market sentiment. You can buy or sell shares freely during this phase.
Phase 2: Market ended (settlement in progress)
The underlying event (e.g., a sports match) has concluded, but the data provider has not yet confirmed the final resolution. Trading remains open, meaning you can still adjust your positions.
Phase 3: Resolved (final outcome)
The final outcome has been determined and recorded on-chain. Trading is disabled, and the market is officially closed. If you hold winning shares, you can claim $1.00 per share from your Prediction Account. Losing shares are automatically cleared.
Resolution on Predict.fun uses a decentralized on-chain oracle system. After an event concludes, a resolution proposal is submitted with a bond. If unchallenged, the market resolves automatically. If disputed, the process escalates through an arbitration mechanism.
Can you sell before resolution?
Yes. You can sell your shares at any time before settlement to lock in profits or reduce losses. Profits from early sales are realized immediately without needing to go through a claim step.
Important Notes
Trading fees are vendor fees set by Predict.fun, displayed in real time on the order confirmation screen. These fees are not collected by Binance.
Gas fees are sponsored by Binance Wallet, so users are not charged for on-chain execution costs.
Binance does not create or manage market events and does not act as a counterparty to any prediction trade.
Predict.fun incentive programs (such as referral rewards or points programs) are currently not available through Binance. Binance's role is limited to facilitating access.
As with any form of trading, prediction markets carry risk. The value of your shares can fluctuate, and you may lose your entire invested amount if your predicted outcome does not occur.
Closing Thoughts
Prediction markets aren't new, but having them accessible directly through the Binance Wallet and without gas fees is a big step toward making on-chain products more accessible to users. Before taking risks, make sure to understand how the product works and only trade with funds you can afford to lose.
