# Welcome to Fuyo Markets

### Fuyo Markets is a prediction market platform

Fuyo Markets is a fast, beginner-friendly prediction market where you can turn your market intuition into a clear YES/NO (or Higher/Lower) position — and get paid if you’re right.

Unlike most prediction markets that feel “DeFi-native” and targeting advanced traders, Fuyo is built for everyday users and traders who want simple choices, instant execution, and transparent settlement. 

We’re live on BNB Chain Mainnet, with more chain integrations coming soon.

### Fuyo is focused on emerging markets; Asia and SEA

Fuyo Markets is built with emerging markets in mind — especially Asia and Southeast Asia (SEA). That means we focus on what local traders actually care about: fast, social, simple Higher/Lower and YES/NO markets, and settlement rules that are clear and easy to trust. 

We also prioritise accessible payment rails and familiar stablecoins, supporting USDT and USDC deposits across multiple chains, as well as fiat deposits via Binance Connect.

Most importantly, Fuyo aims to offer markets that feel culturally relevant and “always fresh” for the region — from crypto short-timeframe moves to high-attention local and global events — so users can participate without needing advanced trading knowledge or complicated trading tools.

#### Background

Prediction markets work because they compress what everyone knows — news, sentiment, charts, and crowd expectations — into a single number: the odds. When incentives are real, odds update fast. Markets seek truth.

{% hint style="info" %}
Fuyo Markets is not an orderbook exchange but using automated market maker; LMSR
{% endhint %}

Fuyo creates the market via LMSR, which stands for Logarithmic Market Scoring Rule as pricing engine, and market (players) determines the latest prices via LMSR algorithm.

**You pick UP or DOWN. You stake. The pool settles. Winners get paid.**

That's it at its core. Everything else in these docs explains the mechanics so you can trade smarter.

#### What Fuyo is NOT

* ❌ Not a P2P exchange — you don't need someone to match your trade
* ❌ Not an order book — no limit orders, no fills, no slippage hunting
* ❌ Not a house-vs-player — Fuyo earns fees as a platform, not your losses

#### What Fuyo IS

* ✅ A pool-based prediction market where you trade against other traders
* ✅ Fast settlement driven by live oracle price feeds (Binance, Bybit, Chainlink and more)
* ✅ Transparent pools — you can see exactly how much is staked UP and DOWN
* ✅ Available for crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB) and commodities (GOLD, OIL, CRUDE OIL) and more

#### Why this is better for beginners

* No orderbook confusion such as market order or limit order.
* No “my order didn’t fill”. User just need to trade and the rest is automated and executed.
* No advanced trading setup required. Just analyse market odds and press trade.

> You will always see a payout preview before confirming.
>
> You can’t “post orders” like a P2P exchange because Fuyo isn’t an orderbook exchange.
