{"id":"world","title":"World","content":"**World** is a fully onchain prediction market built on the [Solana blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana), designed to enable users to trade event contracts in various markets, including [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) prices and global events like the FIFA World Cup. \n\nUnveiled on July 1st, 2026, World operates through the [Phantom wallet ](https://iq.wiki/wiki/phantom-wallet)platform on iOS, Android, and desktop, capitalizing on [Solana](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana)'s high-performance [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) capabilities. [\\[1\\]](#cite-id-IJ3ZK249Yku6PE2i) [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-ExL3RBzq02WayqCM)​\n\n## Concept and Development\n\nWorld was developed to transform the landscape of prediction markets by leveraging the speed and efficiency of the [Solana](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana) blockchain. \n\nIt provides a decentralized platform where users can predict and wager on the outcomes of various events, ranging from financial market movements to sports and geopolitical issues. \n\nThe project emerged after gaining attention on social media through cryptic campaigns that stirred speculation about its nature, which was initially unclear until the legal disclosure that unveiled its function as a prediction market. [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-ExL3RBzq02WayqCM)​\n\n## Technology and Operation\n\nWorld operates entirely on the blockchain, with all trading activities happening onchain. This includes the trading of event contracts, position settlements, and redemptions, which are facilitated using the CASH stablecoin, a digital asset integrated directly into the Phantom wallet. [Chainlink](https://iq.wiki/wiki/chainlink) acts as the platform's primary oracle infrastructure, ensuring accurate and reliable market data feeds necessary for resolving event outcomes. [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-ExL3RBzq02WayqCM)​\n\nThe integration with [Chainlink](https://iq.wiki/wiki/chainlink) is a strategic decision to reduce the reliance on human-led market resolutions, thereby aiming to minimize points of friction traditionally associated with prediction markets. This use of oracles enhances the platform's efficiency in settling contracts based on real-time data streams provided by [Chainlink](https://iq.wiki/wiki/chainlink). [\\[3\\]](#cite-id-JGo0d1c6wUZEleu6)​\n\n## Products and Use Cases\n\nThe primary product of World is the ability to trade event contracts. Users can speculate on a range of events including, but not limited to, [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) price fluctuations and large-scale events such as international sports tournaments. \n\nThe platform aims to expand its offerings to include more markets in sports, geopolitical events, and macroeconomic developments. This diverse array of offerings caters to a wide audience, from crypto enthusiasts and traders to sports bettors and political analysts.

This partnership instantly provides World with a vast user base familiar with blockchain technology and prediction markets. In addition, World plans to extend its distribution through more partnerships with traditional fintech and crypto platforms, broadening its accessibility and user engagement. [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-ExL3RBzq02WayqCM)​\n\nThe project distinguishes itself by focusing on providing real-time markets with onchain settlements, promoting a user-friendly experience that is accessible directly through users' existing [Solana](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana) wallets. This design ensures that all market interactions are seamless and intuitive, meeting users where they are most active. [\\[1\\]](#cite-id-IJ3ZK249Yku6PE2i)​\n\n## Future Outlook\n\nLooking forward, World intends to further develop its infrastructure and expand its reach in the decentralized finance space. By showcasing the potential of Solana's blockchain technology in prediction markets, World aims to become a leading platform in this domain. The integration with [Chainlink](https://iq.wiki/wiki/chainlink) and partnerships with prominent apps like Phantom are initial steps toward achieving broad recognition and adoption. [\\[3\\]](#cite-id-JGo0d1c6wUZEleu6) \n\nWorld is positioned to become a significant player in the prediction market ecosystem, offering a robust platform for users to engage with prediction markets across a broad spectrum of events and financial instruments.
