A fast-growing $15B+ market

Prediction markets have seen 130-fold growth since early 2024 — yet nearly all capital sitting in positions remains unproductive.

"Some estimate this growth as 130-fold — from less than $100 million per month in early 2024 to more than $13 billion by the end of last year"

The Problem

Billions locked in idle positions

Position shares (ERC-1155) across prediction markets have no utility beyond their outcome bet. They can't be used as collateral, can't generate yield, and can't be leveraged.

Capital is trapped — while traders wait for event resolution, their funds sit unproductive.

* Polymarket + OPINION only

Shares are locked

ERC-1155 tokens just sit in wallets waiting for event resolution — generating zero value for holders.

Our Solution

Unlock the value of your positions

A decentralized, non-custodial lending protocol that lets you borrow against and leverage prediction market positions — with trustless price verification via zkTLS.

1

Hold shares

You hold prediction market position shares in your wallet

2

zkTLS proof

Generate a ZK proof of your shares' market price from the API

3

On-chain verification

Pull-oracle verifies the proof during your transaction execution

4

Borrow USDC

Receive USDC against your verified position value instantly

No centralized intermediaries. No custody risk. Just cryptographic proofs.

Core Features

Three ways to put your shares to work

Whether you want liquidity, yield, or amplified exposure — ylop has you covered.

Borrow

Use your prediction market positions as collateral to borrow USDC. Repay anytime. Available for whitelisted markets with deep liquidity.

Up to 50% of position value

Lend

Supply USDC to earn yield from prediction market traders. Returns are uncorrelated with the broader crypto market conditions.

Yield from real demand

Leverage

Amplify your prediction market exposure without additional capital. Intent-centric architecture with solvers filling leverage requests atomically.

Up to 2× exposure
How It Works

Purpose-built for event-based assets

Every component is designed for the unique challenges of prediction markets.

zkTLS Oracle

Prediction markets use off-chain order books. Our zkTLS-powered pull-oracle verifies market prices from API responses with cryptographic proofs — no centralized price feeds needed.

Intent-Centric Leverage

Solvers fill leverage requests atomically. After a leverage request, a second transaction gets the requested shares from the solver and sends the equivalent USDC plus an incentive fee.

Liquidation Threshold Decay

A time-based safety mechanism that linearly reduces the liquidation threshold as events approach resolution — ensuring the protocol exits positions before outcomes are decided.

Dual Liquidation Paths

Liquidators choose the most efficient route: send USDC to seize shares, or send opposite-outcome shares to receive USDC. Both paths available in a single transaction.

LTV Diversification Bonus

Providing collateral from low-correlation categories (e.g., Politics vs. Weather) earns a higher LTV via the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index — reducing systemic risk for the protocol.

Dynamic Interest Rates

Borrowing costs adjust based on pool utilization — driven by supply and demand. As liquidity becomes scarce, rates rise to incentivize deposits and repayments.

Security & Trust

Built for safety

Purpose-built risk management for the unique volatility of event-based assets.

Non-Custodial

You retain full control of your collateral at all times. The protocol never takes custody — only smart contracts govern the lending pools.

Temporal LT Decay

Positions automatically approach liquidation as events near resolution. The protocol safely exits all positions 24 hours before outcome — eliminating bad debt risk.

Market Whitelisting

Only markets with sufficient volume, liquidity, and depth are eligible — preventing manipulation and ensuring smooth liquidations with minimal slippage.

Redundant Verification

Multiple zkTLS providers ensure continuous price data availability. If one source experiences an outage, others maintain data integrity seamlessly.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

ylop is a decentralized, non-custodial lending protocol purpose-built for prediction markets. It enables users to borrow USDC against their prediction market positions, lend to earn yield, and leverage their exposure — all powered by zkTLS proofs for trustless price verification.
Users generate a ZK proof confirming the current market price of their shares as reported by the prediction market API. This proof attests that the HTTPS response originated from the official API. The proof is verified on-chain during the user's transaction — a pull-oracle model that eliminates the need to continuously push price updates on-chain.
Markets are whitelisted via governance based on volume, liquidity, and order book depth. The protocol is designed to support any prediction market platform that uses standardized share tokens. Minimum thresholds are enforced to prevent market manipulation and ensure smooth liquidations.
The protocol uses multiple risk management mechanisms: Temporal LT Decay automatically reduces the liquidation threshold as events approach resolution, ensuring positions close before outcomes. Market whitelisting ensures only liquid markets are used. Dual liquidation paths give liquidators flexibility. And the LTV Diversification Bonus incentivizes spreading collateral across uncorrelated market categories.
