How Do Prediction Markets Work at BitMEX? 

Prediction Markets work the same as all futures contracts on BitMEX, with a few differences as listed below:

  • The price of the contracts will be marked as Last Price*. 
  • No leverage is granted. 
  • Margin and settlement in Tether (USDT).
  • Payouts will be based on a bounded price from 0 to 100. 
  • Maker fees are set at 0.00% and Taker fees are set at 0.25%.
  • Early settlement will take place if the outcome or event occurs before the contract expiry date. 
  • The product suite will not be available to users in particular jurisdictions. 

*Last Price is used as an external price index is not required to mark the price of a contract, as long as a price is available to settle. 

Each contract has a value between zero and one USD, but is quoted in percentage terms.

Each and every listing under Prediction Markets is vetted by our team, taking into account the difficulty of defining the particular outcomes. Settlement of the contracts will be in USDT and based on our platform’s best efforts to provide a settlement price – as is the case already with all futures contracts on BitMEX.

As the new listings are speculative contracts that are marked on Last Price, users should adjust their risk tolerance accordingly when trading the products.
