**Opinion** is a [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain)-based prediction exchange that allows users to create, trade, and resolve markets on real-world events, operating under the self-description of the "People's Terminal for Global Economic Trading."[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) 

Launched in October 2025 on BNB Smart Chain as a prediction marketplace, Opinion reported by February 2026 that it had become one of the top prediction markets by trading volume.[[5]](#cite-id-ynwoz2r4lu) In the same period, the project announced a $20 million pre-Series A funding round backed by [Hack VC](https://iq.wiki/wiki/hack-vc), Jump Crypto, and Primitive Ventures, following an earlier $5 million seed round led by YZi Labs with participation from Animoca Ventures.[[6]](#cite-id-z9xvzcnti2)[[5]](#cite-id-ynwoz2r4lu)

## Overview

Opinion presents itself as a high-performance prediction exchange that transforms economic insights into tradable markets, combining three technical elements: AI oracles, on-chain trading infrastructure, and [decentralized finance (DeFi)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi) composability.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) A prediction exchange is a venue where participants buy and sell positions on the outcomes of future events, with prices reflecting the market's collective estimate of the probability of each outcome. The project frames this activity as allowing anyone to "act as a market economist," trading global macroeconomic signals rather than relying on institutional trading desks or costly data terminals.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj)​

Through its architecture, Opinion states it is working to standardize economic risk as a new, transparent, and tradable asset class, with the stated aim of bridging the gap between traditional macro instruments and permissionless participation — meaning participation that does not require approval from a central gatekeeper.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj)​

## The Opinion Stack

Opinion identifies the core of its architecture as the **Opinion Stack**, a four-layer system that it describes as powering its [mainnet](https://iq.wiki/wiki/mainnet).[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) Each layer addresses a distinct function — the trading venue, market resolution, liquidity, and cross-platform interoperability — and together they are presented as the technical foundation for the exchange.

### Opinion.Trade

Opinion.Trade is the live prediction exchange layer, where users can create, trade, and resolve real-world markets.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) It is the user-facing venue through which the platform's markets are offered. The markets span a wide range of subjects, from sports to technology and [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency). Examples offered by the platform have included markets on tennis results — such as Zheng Qinwen's run to the China Open semifinals — and on technology events such as a prediction that Microsoft and Nvidia would unveil an artificial-intelligence laptop for on-device coding agents.[[2]](#cite-id-o9vw3elqs3)​

The exchange has also hosted markets tied to developments within the prediction-market industry itself. In October 2025, Opinion listed a market on whether the platform [Predict](https://iq.wiki/wiki/predict).fun would launch a token by 31 December 2026, which the project priced at a 30.5 percent chance, and a separate market on whether [Polymarket](https://iq.wiki/wiki/polymarket) would launch a token referred to as "$POLY" by year-end, priced at 14 percent.[[2]](#cite-id-o9vw3elqs3) 

### Opinion AI

Opinion AI is described as "the first decentralized multi-agent AI oracle," a system built to resolve complex, unstructured data.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) In prediction markets, an oracle is the mechanism that determines the true outcome of an event so that winning positions can be paid out; resolving "unstructured data" refers to interpreting information that does not arrive in a clean, machine-readable form, such as news reports or qualitative events. The multi-agent design implies that multiple automated agents contribute to this determination rather than a single authority.

Beyond settling outcomes, Opinion AI also assists in the creation of permissionless markets. It is described as helping users generate rigorous and objective rules for a proposed market and verifying whether a given topic meets resolvability standards — that is, whether the event can be defined clearly enough to have an unambiguous, verifiable outcome.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) This function is intended to let any user propose a market while maintaining consistency in how markets are defined and settled.

### Opinion Metapool

Opinion Metapool is the platform's unified liquidity infrastructure, described as ensuring deep cross-market liquidity and resolution trust.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) Liquidity in a trading venue refers to the ease with which positions can be bought or sold without large price swings; by pooling liquidity across markets rather than fragmenting it market by market, the Metapool is positioned as the component that addresses the cross-market frictions the project aims to eliminate. Its pairing of liquidity with "resolution trust" ties the pool's capital to confidence in how markets are settled.

### Opinion Protocol

Opinion Protocol is described as a universal token standard enabling interoperability across prediction venues.[[1]](#cite-id-c0rn48wbbj) A token standard is a common set of rules governing how tokens representing market positions are structured, and a universal one would allow positions and outcomes to be recognized and moved across different prediction platforms rather than remaining confined to a single venue. This layer reflects the project's stated goal of integrating otherwise separate markets into one connected system.

## Tokenomics

Opinion's native token, OPN, has a maximum and total supply of 1 billion tokens. Launched on March 5, 2026, OPN is designed to support participation in the Opinion protocol and is intended to facilitate ecosystem development and governance. The token uses [ERC-20](https://iq.wiki/wiki/erc-20) and [BEP-20](https://iq.wiki/wiki/bep-20) standards across [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum) and [BNB Chain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/binance-smart-chain).[[3]](#cite-id-Aq9XbxqrsZG56cNa) 

The token allocation is divided among [airdrops](https://iq.wiki/wiki/airdrop) (23.5%), investors (23%), team and advisors (19.5%), foundation (12%), ecosystem and incentives (11.1%), marketing (8.9%), and liquidity and market making (2%). Vesting schedules vary by allocation, with investor and team tokens subject to a 12-month cliff followed by 24 months of linear vesting.[[4]](#cite-id-K6aETJd2yUd8iJCN) 

## Funding

Opinion Labs, the company behind the Opinion prediction marketplace on BNB Smart Chain, raised a $5 million seed round led by [YZi Labs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/binance-labs) with participation from Animoca Ventures and other investors, followed by a $20 million pre-Series A round announced on February 4, 2026, backed by [Hack VC](https://iq.wiki/wiki/hack-vc), Jump Crypto, Primitive Ventures and others.[\[6\]](#cite-id-z9xvzcnti2)​[\[5\]](#cite-id-ynwoz2r4lu) The pre-Series A round was reported alongside Opinion’s emergence among the top on-chain prediction markets by trading volume.[\[5\]](#cite-id-ynwoz2r4lu)​
