Risks
What can go wrong during the beta, in plain words. Read it before you trade.
This is a beta
- Colysium is new, and so is Elysium mainnet. Expect rough edges, and only put in what you can afford to lose.
- The smart contracts have not been audited yet. Their source is verified on the explorer, so anyone can read exactly what runs.
How Predict rounds are decided
- During the beta, Bitcoin rounds are settled by Colysium from Hyperliquid's price at the bell. The contract checks that a listed reporter signed the price, not that the price is right, so you rely on Colysium to post it honestly.
- If no price arrives within 10 minutes of a round's end, the round is void and every share, Up or Down, pays $0.50.
- A round's strike and result can't be changed once posted, and redeems keep working while trading is paused.
What the admin can do
- One wallet controlled by the founder holds the owner, guardian and treasury roles during the beta.
- It can pause new orders and new rounds, add or pause a market, and lower the per-order and per-round limits in an emergency. It can never move your funds.
- On the launchpad, protocol changes wait 6 hours in a public timelock before they take effect, so you can see them coming.
Money and networks
- USDC on Elysium is bridged from HyperEVM. It is not issued by Circle on Elysium, so it depends on the bridge that carries it.
- Bridges add their own risk. Transfers through a third-party bridge depend on that bridge, and withdrawals through Kinetiq's bridge take days to clear.
- Every transaction is yours to sign. Colysium never holds your keys or your funds.
