Predict.fun said Tuesday it has secured a strategic follow-on investment from YZi Labs and Susquehanna Crypto, giving the BNB Chain-based prediction market fresh backing as competition intensifies across one of crypto’s fastest-growing sectors.
YZi Labs said it manages more than $10 billion in assets globally, while Susquehanna Crypto is joining to help improve market quality and liquidity on the platform.
The deal builds on a prior relationship between Predict.fun and YZi Labs. Predict.fun was part of EASY Residency Season 2, YZi Labs’ incubation program, and the firm is now returning with a follow-on check as the platform looks to scale its yield-focused prediction market model.
According to YZi Labs, Predict.fun has reported more than $1.8 billion in cumulative volume, over 130,000 users, more than 4 million matched orders, and over $20 million in assets actively earning yield.
The funding also comes after Predict.fun’s March acquisition of Probable, a prediction market previously incubated by PancakeSwap and YZi Labs. The company has framed that deal as a way to expand distribution, especially across Asian markets, while strengthening its position inside the BNB Chain ecosystem.
Prediction market volumes grew nearly fourfold to $64 billion in 2025 and are on pace to exceed $325 billion in 2026, according to FalconX research, while TRM Labs said monthly sector volume climbed from about $1.2 billion in early 2025 to more than $20 billion in January 2026. That surge has pulled in more institutional attention and intensified the race to improve liquidity, capital efficiency, and user retention.
Predict.fun is leaning into that theme by pitching itself as a more capital-efficient, DeFi-enabled alternative. The platform says users can keep collateral productive through yield-bearing structures instead of leaving it idle while markets resolve, a model YZi Labs has described as one of the protocol’s main differentiators.
