Space selected in Binance Research ecosystem report: Key signals of prediction market leverage layer are emerging

Source: Space

In the crypto industry, the truly noteworthy signals often do not come from market noise, but from the “rare actions” of a few authoritative institutions.

Recently, Space was included in Binance Research’s ecosystem quarterly report and became the only prediction market project highlighted in the report that has not yet completed its TGE. Among a host of mature projects that have already launched and are circulating, Space’s “exceptional” inclusion releases a highly directional market signal.

Authoritative attention often heralds a trend

Binance Research’s ecosystem report is published only four times a year, covering not ordinary early-stage projects but infrastructure and protocols that Binance focuses on at the ecosystem level, possessing long-term potential and structural value.

Against this backdrop, Space being uniquely listed as the only non-TGE project alongside multiple mature projects that have already completed their issuance is inherently highly scarce. This not only represents Binance Research’s high recognition of Space’s product logic and market positioning but also indicates that it has entered the intersection of attention from both the primary and secondary markets.

From historical experience, such public, restrained yet clear authoritative signals often share similarities with early public attention from top-tier institutions like CoinList and Paradigm toward key sector projects—it is not a marketing move but a judgment on “direction.”

Not just a prediction market, but the “leverage layer” for prediction markets

Unlike traditional prediction markets, Space does not remain at the level of “outcome guessing” or “binary gambling.”

What Space builds is a Leverage Layer for prediction markets—focusing on orderbook structure, leverage mechanisms, and information reflection efficiency, aiming to upgrade prediction markets from low capital efficiency betting models to financial instruments with professional trading attributes.

In Space’s design, prediction is no longer just an expression of opinion but a risk exposure that can be amplified, managed, priced, and traded. This approach is pushing prediction markets toward a paradigm closer to derivative trading.

Core mechanisms: Reconstructing prediction markets around capital efficiency and trading experience

Space’s product mechanisms revolve around three core objectives: “capital efficiency,” “liquidity,” and “user retention”:

Central Limit Order Book (CLOB): Adopts the same orderbook mechanism as mainstream exchanges, with real user counterparties, avoiding slippage and efficiency losses from AMMs

0% Maker fee: Encourages market-making behavior, promoting the natural formation of depth and liquidity

Up to 10x leverage: Introduces leverage mechanisms into prediction markets, enabling high-conviction trades to achieve higher capital efficiency and profit elasticity

50% of protocol revenue used for buyback and burn: Directly feeds real protocol revenue back into the token system, building long-term scarcity

Comprehensive user retention flywheel design:

Gamified points and level system

Season-based airdrop mechanism

Liquidity incentives and referral reward model

This entire set of mechanisms makes Space not just a “prediction platform” but more like a trading system built around prediction behavior, equipped with financial depth and long-term incentive structures.

2026: The resurgence of the prediction market narrative

Entering 2026, prediction markets are returning to the core of industry narratives.

Against a backdrop of rising macro uncertainty and increasing information fragmentation, the market’s demand for “verifiable, pricable, tradable truth mechanisms” is steadily growing. Prediction markets are gradually shifting from peripheral gambling tools to important infrastructure for information discovery and consensus formation.

Amid this trend, Space happens to be at the intersection of three factors:

Rare attention signals released by authoritative institutions

Differentiated product mechanisms centered on leverage and orderbooks

The structural resurgence of the prediction market narrative in the new cycle

This gives Space not only short-term attention but also long-term strategic value.

Public sale entering its final stage

Space’s public sale has entered the countdown phase, with only 5 days remaining until its conclusion. As of now, the public sale has raised over $12 million, with approximately 500% oversubscription, demonstrating strong market demand and recognition for Space. This round of public sale features 100% TGE unlock and is open to all community users for participation.
