Probable will facilitate predictions through USDT. However, users can deposit any crypto of their choice.

PancakeSwap, the leading decentralized exchange on BNB Chain, has joined the bandwagon of crypto projects building at the intersection of prediction markets and blockchain technology. The project’s team announced today that it has incubated Probable, a prediction platform, alongside Binance’s venture arm, YZi Labs.

PancakeSwap Incubates Probable

Probable is an on-chain prediction market that will be natively built on the BNB Chain. It allows users to bet on topics across crypto, sports, and global happenings. Unlike its peers, such as Polymarket and Kalshi, Probable explains that it will charge no platform fee on trades.

Users can deposit any crypto of their choice. In the background, Probable automatically swaps the asset for USDT on BNB Chain, which is the native currency for predictions.

The prediction platform has a points program where users earn points for their participation. The team also stated that more prediction categories aside from crypto, sports, and global events will be added over time.

Probable harnesses UMA’s Optimistic Oracle, a decentralized oracle that enables smart contracts to verify if real-world data is true or false. Prediction platforms use the technology to provide tamper-proof outcomes on predictions.

It is worth noting that Probable has not yet been launched. Still, the announcement stated that it would be debuted soon.

Although Probable will operate independently, the announcement mentioned that PancakeSwap will be “involved in guiding and supporting its growth – helping the team scale and bring a new wave of innovative prediction experiences to users across BNB Chain.”

More Crypto Platforms Embrace Prediction Markets

Since Polymarket’s massive growth within the past two years, various crypto projects have begun showing interest in the prediction markets. Bettors have become interested after seeing others net massive profits from prediction platforms.

At the same time, crypto projects like MetaMask, Jupiter, and Phantom have tapped platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket to explore prediction markets.

The growing adoption of prediction marketplaces suggests that prediction markets are a trendsetter in the crypto market.
