I was actually shocked by polymarket fees during the world cup, somehow more expensive than centralized bookmakers
prediction fees on trade[XYZ] are about 50x cheaper than polymarket and kalshi
liquidity is shit rn but pretty sure that won't last long

Introducing Events by trade[XYZ].
With Events, we’re advancing our vision of Hyperliquid as the universal exchange—a single, composable system for trading financial assets and real-world outcomes.
A user can deposit spot BTC, borrow USDC through portfolio margin, open a pre-ipo SpaceX perp position, hedge an upcoming SK Hynix earnings event with an events market, and pick the US Open winner—all from a single unified account on trade[XYZ].
Events will span sports, politics, economics, and financial markets, with an expanding range of categories and contract formats.
Our initial Up/Down markets cover equities, commodities, and pre-IPOs, powered by the depth and liquidity of trade[XYZ] perpetuals on HIP-3. These perpetuals provide continuous price discovery and serve as the resolution source, so each contract is grounded in XYZ's liquid market prices rather than an external oracle.
