We just won the @solanamobile track at Consensus Miami with Parabola!
Prediction markets today are stuck on yes/no. Parabola lets you bet the entire distribution: where you think an outcome lands, how confident you are, and how wide the range could be.
Trade a distribution on Brent crude. Instead of an NBA over/under, set your own curve around the final score. Same idea, infinitely more expressive.
Parabola presents a brand new derivative built around distributions, real leverage, better odds, and a fix for the fragmented liquidity that’s held prediction markets back, all on-chain with Solana architecture.
We’re excited to soon launch a web app in addition to a dApp for Solana Mobile in our efforts to build out Parabola for the broader Solana ecosystem.
Huge thanks to Solana Mobile, @easya_app , @dom_kwok , and @kwok_phil for the support.
