predict.fun: prediction market on BNB Chain
predict.fun is a prediction market platform launched on BNB Chain. Its founder is dingaling, previously known in the NFT sector. The project says it differs from traditional prediction markets such as Polymarket and Kalshi because user funds do not sit idle during the prediction period and can generate additional yield at the same time.
On Aug. 11, predict.fun announced a Dota 2 The International prediction campaign. Users can participate in designated markets covering group-stage, elimination-round, and playoff matches starting Aug. 13. The total prize pool is $100,000 and 5 million points.
The rewards will be distributed in two phases: group-stage rewards and final rewards. For the group stage, running from Aug. 13 to Aug. 16, the pool is 25,000 USDT and 1 million PP points. Those rewards will be distributed after the group stage and elimination round end. Points earned during that phase will carry into the playoffs and will not be reset. The final phase, scheduled for Aug. 20 to Aug. 23, carries a pool of 75,000 USDT and 4 million PP points.
How to participate
Users can go to the official website, complete registration, and click on 「DOTA TI」 to enter the event page.
Under 「Markets」, users select the Dota 2 team they support and lock shares before the team’s match starts. The minimum lock amount is 20 shares. Each match includes nine prediction questions. Correct answers earn AP points, and the top 1,000 users on the leaderboard will receive rewards.
CheomaYield: stablecoin yield protocol
CheomaYield is a stablecoin yield protocol built on GIWA Chain, an Ethereum OP-Stack Layer 2 introduced by the Korean exchange Upbit. It is also described as the first protocol of its kind on the GIWA testnet.
The project has released the tokenomics for CHEOMA. Total supply is fixed at 100 million tokens with no inflation. The allocation is 30% for airdrops, 15% for public sale, 20% for marketing, 10% for liquidity, 10% for CEX reserves, 8% for private sale, 5% for treasury, 5% for development, and 2% for advisors.
According to the project, about 45% will unlock at launch. It also says 90% of protocol entry and exit fees will continue to flow to the Gotgan treasury for permanent market buybacks, with the design centered on fee-driven mechanics and a community-first approach.
How to participate
Users first need to claim test tokens from the GIWA testnet faucet. They can then enter the CheomaYield website, claim 10,000 USDC in test tokens, and interact with the platform to earn points.
