Prophex: Redefining Prediction Markets as we know it

 Prediction markets are exploding.

Perp DEXs are exploding.


These industries have seen exponential growth in Q4 of 2025 representing $35.4B in combined value. 

And now we have a platform that sits directly at the intersection of both - a new model of outcome trading built for retail, leverage, and scale 


Introducing Prophex ($PPX) 






What is Prophex?


Prophex is the first perpetual prediction market, allowing users to trade outcomes with leverage, instead of placing fixed YES/NO bets.

.

This positions $PPX directly inside two of crypto’s fastest growing sectors:

  • Perp trading

  • On-chain prediction markets

It takes the model of traditional prediction markets and creates a whole new evolution of it


One token.
Endless outcomes.
Leverage your conviction



The Builders Behind Prophex


Prophex is being built by a deeply experienced, globally distributed, crypto-native team with real track records across the biggest exchanges, trading firms, and tech platforms in the world.


Maria has deep experience scaling global user acquisition. Former Bybit, Bitget, and Crypto.com, she is the lead for marketing & growth driving worldwide adoption of Prophex’s perpetual prediction markets



Alina’s expertise come from deep product and compliance. Ex-Binance, Kraken, and 1inch, she leads product strategy and compliance, ensuring Prophex remains secure, compliant, and globally accessible as it scales 



Brian is the brains behind the architecture and engineering at Prophex. Former Wintermute engineer, he brings his high-frequency trading and liquidity infrastructure experience to lead designing the core engine powering the Prophex platform


When you’re creating an entirely new financial primitive (perpetual prediction markets) you need world-class operators.


Why Prediction Markets Are Heating Up (280% YTD)

Prediction markets have gone parabolic in 2025, driven by institutional adoption from players like Polymarket and Kalshi.

  • Sector is up 280% YTD

  • Weekly volume recently hit $3B

  • Weekly growth is now 7× faster than perp DEXs

  • Analysts project a $100B sector by 2035

The market doesn’t just want to read headlines, they want to participate in speculation. 

This exponential retail rush into prediction markets highlights a profound shift toward crowdsourced truth-seeking in an era of institutional distrust and information overload.





Why Perp DEXs Are Exploding (153% YTD)

Perp DEX activity has surged dramatically in 2025, especially after major endorsements and integrations across the ecosystem.

  • Perp DEX volume is up 153% YTD

  • Cumulative volume hit $3.8T this year

  • Perp DEXs now make up 25%+ of all crypto perp activity

  • Retail is choosing KYC-free, fast, cheap platforms

Attention is clearly moving on-chain and off of slow and centralised exchanges. Investors want faster and cheaper options to leverage without a central entity.


Prophex Converges Both Trends


Together, prediction markets + perp markets represent $35.4B in value.

Prophex captures demand from both:

☑️ Demand for leverage
☑️ Demand for event speculation

Capturing even 1% of this combined market would value Prophex around $350M, a ~35× from current levels.


When two exponential markets collide, you don’t get linear growth. You get an entirely new asset class. 


Comparison Against Existing Platforms

Here’s what the current landscape looks like:

Polymarket - fast growth, institutional attention, but:

❌ Static YES/NO markets

❌ Early bet exits reliant on other traders

❌ Regulatory/geographic restrictions

❌ No leverage, diminished bet sizing

❌ Not fully web3-native

Prophex:

✅ Leverage outcomes

✅ Enter and exit bets at any moment

✅ Permissionless

✅ Retail-native

✅ Fast bet settlement

✅ Built for global access

Clear differentiation. One controlled by a central entity. One flexible and accessible.



Why Solana Is the Chain That Captures It All


Solana has become the home for:

  • Retail speculation

  • Attention trading (meme coins)

  • Low-fee, high-volume consumer apps

  • Perpetuals

This is a reflection of where retail attention lives.

When traders want instant execution, cheap fees, and high-speed UX, they don’t go to Ethereum L2s. 

They go to Solana.

And if prediction markets are going to onboard millions, they’ll need:

✅ Sub-cent fees

✅ Instant execution

✅ No friction

That’s Solana - the only chain capable of hosting high-frequency, event-driven trading at scale

And that’s why Prophex built here.



The Opportunity for Prophex

Prediction markets today look exactly like perps DEXs in early 2021 and Polymarket in early 2025. 

Quietly growing, misunderstood, and wildly undervalued just before their breakout moment.

At the start of Q1 2025, Polymarket was still a niche platform with modest volume and almost zero mainstream awareness.
Six months later, it became the fastest-growing trading product in crypto, with institutional flows, surging liquidity, and billions in weekly volume.

Prophex is positioned at the same point on the curve - but with even stronger tailwinds.

Why We Are Early

Every major cycle rewards the platforms that create new primitives before the market recognizes their value:

  • Uniswap created AMMs before DEXs were a trend

  • dYdX created decentralized perps before they went mainstream

  • Polymarket revived prediction markets right before institutional demand hit

Prophex is doing the same but in a category with no direct competitors and massive built-in demand from both traders and speculators.

The combined addressable market between perps and prediction markets is $35B+ today, and Prophex is the only platform offering the derivative structure the market is moving toward.

This is one of the rare moments where an entirely new trading product is emerging before retail floods in.

Prophex isn’t following a trend.
Prophex is the trend.
