Prediction Market Platform Opinion performed strongly in December. According to Defillama data, the platform's cumulative profit this month has exceeded $4.67 million, with revenue in the past week reaching $1.42 million. The points rewards have also been distributed for this week.



Meanwhile, a leading compliant institution released a forward-looking prediction for the 2026 crypto market. The institution believes that in the next year, the crypto space will focus on three areas: perpetual contract trading, prediction market applications, and the expansion of stablecoins in the payment ecosystem. These areas reflect the increasing demand for derivatives in the market and also indicate that payment and prediction functions are becoming new growth points in the Web3 ecosystem.

4.67 million dollars, is this number real? Feels like the prediction market is about to take off

---

Opinion is hot, but the question is who is really using it, how much is the trading volume inflated

---

Both stablecoins and perpetual contracts, to put it nicely, are derivatives smoke screens; what about actual implementation

---

Expanding the payment ecosystem? Web3 payments are still a pseudo-demand, don’t fool yourself

---

This data looks quite impressive, claiming a weekly volume of 1.42 million to boast about a month's achievement, too much marketing flavor

---

The prediction market is about to take off, indeed, but unfortunately it’s the leading institutions shouting, retail investors are still getting cut

---

Isn’t it just the booming demand for derivatives? Translation: More leveraged gamblers, and retail investors are starting to play tricks

Opinion this week has once again taken advantage of the situation, $4.67 million. Regulated institutions are also beginning to pay attention to prediction markets. It seems we have long bet on the right direction.

---

Perpetual contracts, prediction markets, stablecoins... In simple terms, derivatives are about to take off. Should we increase our positions, everyone?

---

$1.42 million in income this week? This data makes me want to jump in, but I always feel like this is the bait before a bull market arrives.

---

The fact that prediction markets are becoming a new growth point has been talked about for a while. Now the official response is finally coming—it's really hilarious.

---

Can Opinion points still be exchanged for money? I haven't kept up with the recent developments.

---

The key directions for 2026 have already been revealed. How can we bottom fish now? The information gap is closing.

---

Listening to predictions from regulated institutions is just for reference. The market's direction still depends on what whales think.

Opinion this week's revenue is $1.42 million, quite impressive... but the question is, can it be sustained?

---

Prediction markets have been popular for so long, and now they are finally "officially recognized," a bit late haha

---

Stablecoin payments... okay, same old story, where are the real killer apps?

---

Earning $4.67 million sounds great, but how much of that actually ends up with users?

---

Perpetual contracts, prediction markets, stablecoins... feels like these are the only things, nothing new.

---

Why can Opinion be so flashy in December? Why didn't I make any money?

---

Prediction markets and payments again, everyone is talking about these three things, can they really grow?

---

The forecasts from regulatory agencies are sometimes just rearview mirrors, believe it or not.

---

Looking at that weekly revenue of $1.42 million, how many people must be involved to pile that up?

---

Stablecoin ecosystem... feels like this direction is really hot, but I’m still clueless about how to make money specifically.

Opinion is this week’s winner again? 4.67 million? I feel like the average收益 of our community isn't that high...

The prediction market is really about to take off, and the fact that compliant institutions are paying attention indicates there’s potential.

I’m optimistic about stablecoin payments, just not sure who can grab the top spot.

With perpetual contracts so competitive, do latecomers still have a chance?

Opinion’s numbers look good, but how many can actually cash out...

The three main directions of Web3 are well explained, but I’m worried it might just become another hype concept.

This wave of the prediction market does have some substance, but the risks are also significant.

Have the points rewards been distributed? Hurry and check your account haha.

When will the stablecoin ecosystem truly start to be used? That’s the key.

Perpetual, prediction, stablecoins... all seem to be growing, but actual implementation still depends.

4.67 million USD? I think this data should have a question mark. Could there be some exaggeration...

---

The prediction market is really about to take off. It feels like it’s been buried for too long.

---

We need to pay close attention to stablecoin payments. I'm a bit tired of USDT.

---

Perpetual contract trading is heating up? The familiar formula, another wave of leverage feast is starting.

---

I really didn’t expect to make money from this opinion wave. If I had known, I would have jumped in earlier.

---

Wait, the regulatory agency’s statement about the prediction market direction—what are they hinting at?

---

1.42 million in a week? Need to verify if this is real data; otherwise, it’s too outrageous.

---

The payment ecosystem is the key. The derivatives sector has been saturated for a long time.

---

Among the three directions, I’m most optimistic about stablecoins—they are the most practical.

---

Points distribution so fast? It seems like arbitrage opportunities are back again.

$4.67 million? That number sounds a bit outrageous. Is the prediction market really that profitable?

---

Perpetual contracts, prediction markets, stablecoins... everyone is optimistic about them. Should I go all in?

---

Opinion, this data definitely can pack a punch, but the question is whether it can be sustained or if it's just a flash in the pan.

---

Both stablecoins and prediction markets, it feels like every time they get predicted, but they haven't really gained significant volume.

---

$1.42 million weekly revenue? How many people need to be involved to hit that number?

---

I've heard too many predictions from top institutions. The key is whether real money can actually flow in.

---

Prediction markets are so popular now, they should have taken off already. Why are they still dragging?

---

Are Opinion points really that valuable? I don't understand this project at all.

---

Still over a year until 2026. It's a bit early to be talking about this now.

---

It's still those three directions. It feels like everyone is just circling around these few tracks.

one might argue that opinion's explosive numbers aren't just revenue—they're proof of a paradigm shift in how we tokenize prediction itself... the aesthetic value proposition of decentralized forecasting is finally catching mainstream attention, which is kinda wild ngl

This wave of Opinion is really hot, and 4.67 million just disappeared... Prediction markets have truly become a hot commodity.

Regarding stablecoin payments, it still depends on who can develop a good user experience first; otherwise, it's just empty talk.

The water in perpetual contracts is already very deep, new entrants need to be careful of liquidation.

The prediction market track is so competitive, it's good that Opinion can last until the end of the year, but it's probably inevitable to be crushed by big platforms.

By the way, is this 4.67 million really profit? Or is it the platform's own fees? Need to carefully check the data source.

Opinion this week's revenue is $1.42 million? Damn, this growth rate is no joke.

The prediction market is really about to take off, even regulatory agencies see it that way.

Stablecoin payments are the real necessity, forget about perpetuals.

How is the $4.67 million split, and what about transparency?

Feels like 2026 will be the true breakout period for the prediction market.

Is there some water in these numbers?

Just looking at weekly earnings, it's already surpassing other platforms in a month.

Endorsement from regulatory agencies is indeed quite interesting.

Why isn't it listed on my frequently used exchanges yet?

Remember when Opinion was quiet and cold, now it's so aggressive.

A complete stablecoin ecosystem is necessary to truly replace existing payment methods.

The prediction market is hot, but whether it can survive past next year remains to be seen.

Perpetual contracts are already a red ocean, but the prediction market still has a chance.

With such high returns, be cautious of black swans.

In 2026, I am most optimistic about the three tracks: stablecoins.

Opinion: These figures are indeed eye-catching—4.67 million dollars in a month? But the real question is who is actually holding the funds.

The prediction market sector is really about to take off; it's been obvious for a while.

As for stablecoin payments, it still feels like a lot of noise with little substance—how many people are actually using it?
