PancakeSwap has unveiled Probable, an upcoming prediction market platform incubated by the decentralized exchange and supported by YZi Labs.

"Probable is built for anyone who wants a simple, transparent, and fast way to predict crypto movements, global events, sports outcomes, and unique regional markets rarely available elsewhere," PancakeSwap wrote in its Tuesday blog post.

The upcoming platform is set to launch exclusively on BNB Chain and will not require any fees at launch. It will also automatically convert any deposited token into USDT on BNB Chain without requiring users to swap or bridge for tokens. The platform utilizes UMA's Optimistic Oracle for event verification and settlement. 

Although PancakeSwap is assisting with Probable's early growth, the prediction market is an independent project, according to the blog post. It added that Probable's launch is "coming soon" without providing a specific timeline.

Prediction markets gained significant traction this year, with Kalshi and Polymarket drawing in billions of dollars in monthly volumes from October.

Following the success of the first-movers, major crypto and financial players have announced investment or new ventures into prediction markets. These include Coinbase, Gemini, Robinhood and MetaMask.

Still, prediction markets carry regulatory uncertainty due to their unclear distinction from sports betting or gambling. Kalshi, a federally licensed platform under the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, has faced enforcement actions across multiple states, where authorities have viewed its event contracts as illegal online gambling.
