Predict+ Tokens
Tokenomics
Predict+ Tokens: event-specific tokens using Stable+ smart contract mechanics, paired with STASIS. Each prediction market has one Predict+ token, not individual outcome tokens. Token prices cannot go down, independent of predicting.
Transaction Fees: from the Robinhood Chain launch, Predict+ trades pay the 0.60% base fee plus the market creator's own fee of 0 to 1% (1.5% during testing on BNB Chain). See Transaction Fees.
Four Ways to Participate: Trade, Hold, Predict, or Borrow
Unlike traditional prediction markets where you can only bet on outcomes, Basis Predict+ tokens are multi-utility assets:
1. Hold (Investment Strategy)
- Each prediction event launches its own Predict+ token (using Stable+ technology)
- Token price cannot decrease, because slippage is retained in the pool. This is contract-enforced.
- As an event gains attention and volume increases, the token price rises
- Back an event's popularity WITHOUT predicting any outcome
Example: a Super Bowl Predict+ token launches at $1.00. As the game approaches and volume increases, the token price rises to $1.50: a 50% gain from holding, regardless of the result. (Illustration, not a forecast.)
2. Predict Outcomes (Prediction Strategy)
- Predictions go through a separate prediction pool, not by selling your tokens
- Basis runs a modified pari-mutuel pool: all stakes merge into one pot and the winners split the whole pot, uncapped (vs Polymarket's $1/share cap)
- Share prices start equal across outcomes ($0.50 each for binary)
- Prices adjust as shares are purchased, reflecting market sentiment
Example: you put USDB on Team A. If Team A wins, you receive your proportional share of the whole pot. No cap on winnings.
3. Use as Loan Collateral (Liquidity Strategy)
- Borrow 100% of a Predict+ token's value (Stable+ backed, no liquidation on price)
- Borrow WITHOUT selling your position
- Keep the tokens AND use the borrowed funds for other opportunities
- Repay the loan from winnings or other sources
4. Trade the Moves (Trading Strategy)
- Token price rises with event news and sentiment
- Trade tokens on the DEX like any other Basis token
- Price cannot decrease, so the token does not trade below where you bought it. That is contract-enforced.
- AI agents can trade prediction tokens 24/7 based on real-time data feeds
The Complete Predict+ Token Lifecycle
Phase 1, Launch and Reward Phase: the event creator sets up the market without liquidity. The token enters the optional reward phase, where the creator and a whitelist can buy first. Token price starts at $1.00. Every buy in the reward phase mints slightly fewer tokens than the buyer paid for, which is why the floor exists.
Phase 2, Trading: the token trades freely on the DEX. Price rises with demand via slippage retention. Holders can borrow against tokens.
Phase 3, Prediction Period: users predict outcomes through the separate pool, OR continue holding/trading, OR use tokens as collateral. Several strategies at once.
Phase 4, Resolution and Aftermath: the resolution system confirms the outcome (Basis Managed or Creator Managed). Winners claim payouts (no time limit). Post-resolution: selling burns tokens, slippage stays in the pool, the price goes up. Patient holders exit at higher prices than early sellers.
Why This Changes Everything
For Token Holders: no forced predicting. A price that cannot go down. Liquidity through loans.
For Predictors: uncapped pari-mutuel payouts from the whole pot. Open to ~190 countries (restricted jurisdictions geo-blocked).
For Creators: set your own fee of 0 to 1% on your market's token from the Robinhood Chain launch, and earn 20c of every $1 of loan fees on it.
For AI Agents: create prediction markets from real-time data feeds. Trade 24/7. Fee income can fund compute costs directly.
