Xmarket’s beta on BNB Chain offers creators a share of prediction market fees and pre-sale liquidity models

Xmarket has begun a private beta on BNB Chain mainnet, rolling out a suite of features designed to shift revenue from platform operators to the individuals who create and support prediction markets. According to a press release, the launch pairs a creator revenue-share model with a pre-sale investment mechanism and a temporary event that returns 100% of platform fees to users during the beta period.

The move addresses a long-standing grievance within the prediction-market sector: creators who originate the most compelling markets typically receive no share of trading fees. Industry commentary has noted that incumbent platforms retain the entirety of fee income, leaving those who surface high-interest questions without ongoing compensation. Xmarket’s design seeks to reverse that dynamic.

Under Xmarket’s revenue architecture, market builders can capture up to half of the trading and redemption fees generated by their markets for as long as those markets exist. The company says this creates a recurring revenue stream for prolific creators, enabling them to monetise consistent engagement rather than relying on one-off payments or external promotional arrangements.

A second innovation is the pre-sale pool for new markets. Before public trading opens, creators and early backers can fund a market’s liquidity through a soft-cap mechanism; only markets that meet their funding thresholds proceed to launch, and contributors who back successful pre-sales receive a proportional share of that market’s ongoing revenues. Advocates argue this converts early-conviction support into a novel on-chain asset class.

To accelerate adoption and demonstrate the model, Xmarket is temporarily redistributing all fees generated during the private beta to creators, pre-sale investors and referrers. The platform’s announcement frames the measure as a promotional bootstrap intended to encourage market formation and user acquisition rather than a permanent economic policy.

Technically, Xmarket departs from the automated market-maker approach common to decentralised prediction exchanges by using a central limit order book. The team argues this order-book infrastructure yields tighter spreads, improved price discovery and reduced slippage for large trades, characteristics that are attractive to both retail traders and higher-volume participants. BNB Chain’s low fees and regional liquidity profile are cited as factors in choosing the network for the initial rollout.

BNB Chain support has reportedly included marketing and ecosystem introductions to help Xmarket connect with projects across Asia-Pacific markets where BSC liquidity and user bases are relatively strong. The platform has also been promoting creator onboarding via invite codes and a coordinated influencer effort to seed initial markets and awareness ahead of a forthcoming token-generation event referenced by the team.

While Xmarket’s proposals respond directly to criticisms about creator monetisation, questions remain about long-term economics, governance and regulatory treatment of market-backed revenue shares. Observers note that converting trading-fee income into recurring rewards and token-linked incentives may attract creators and capital but will also invite scrutiny as the product scales. The company’s beta will serve as a test of whether a creator-first remuneration model can reliably produce sustained liquidity and accurate market information.
