Link Curve Pricing Mechanism
Binance Wallet launched a new third party decentralized application which allows users to exchange blockchaintokens based on real-world events, including sports scores, cryptocurrency price levels, and news results. Known as Event Rush, the platform, built on the 42.space protocol on BNB Chain, introduces liquid “event tokens” that allow users to take a position before an event ends.
Instead of fixed odds or external market makers, Event Rush uses a bonding curve pricing model that automatically adjusts token prices based on supply and demand.
“At Binance Wallet, we are focused on expanding access to more on-chain experiences that provide more ways for users to engage with emerging markets,” said Winson Liu, Global Head of Binance Wallet. “Event Rush offers users a new way to express their views and participate in event markets through a fully on-chain experience. »
According to a media statement, event tokens can be redeemed at any time before settlement. At the end of an event, holders of the winning tokens share the total value of the event’s USDT-denominated collateral pool, including the value of the losing tokens. Binance Wallet claims that this structure creates uncapped upside potential, unlike traditional prediction markets which cap payouts.
A hypothetical example shows a sporting event with multiple outcomes, such as in Brazil, France and Spain. If Brazilian tokens represent 32% of the event’s market cap at any given time, a buyer could see a potential return of 2.7× – a figure that scales as trading activity changes.
The platform offers users two ways to potentially profit. Traders can buy and sell tokens before settlement, taking advantage of price movements driven by sentiment or demand. Users can also hold tokens through resolution, with rewards determined by the size of the event pool and the number of participants holding the winning outcome.
However, Binance Wallet notes that returns are not guaranteed. Even if a user chooses the correct outcome, profitability depends on the price paid for the tokens, the total pool size, and the number of other people holding the winning tokens. Bond curves, the pricing mechanism behind Event Rush, use mathematical models to adjust the price of an asset as supply changes.
