When I first started @pumpcade it was a no brainer to have markets resolve automatically
Seemed like a basic thing, almost secondary to the markets being fast
As the prediction market sector has played out, it seems automatic resolution will be our defining factor
Pumpcade.
Every minute of my week that wasn't spent in meetings was devoted to integrating our brand new UX to @pumpcade
Pumpcade is unrecognizable from any prediction market that exists, and that's intentional
We've built something entirely new, and the UX needed to match it
Next week
Today on MCG: @PopPunkOnChain | @pumpcade | solana:Eg2ymQ2aQqjMcibnmTt8erC6Tvk9PVpJZCxvVPJz2agu
Pop Punk came back on MCG to give updates on Pumpcade, the prediction market for instant-resolution markets as short as 60 seconds, focused only on markets that resolve through verifiable data
Built on @solana
Highlights include:
00:14 - Raised another $5M since the last MCG appearance
00:37 - First project to do the ACE round, which has since become a trend
03:06 - PopPunk's background
04:21 - Solo-built the product for 6 months without paying himself, then won the Pump Fun Hackathon
05:32 - The ACE round mechanic
06:33 - "We wanted CT degens to sit on the same cap table as top-tier S-tier investors"
09:30 - Final ACE numbers (6-7% of total supply converted for equity, locked for 1 year. Combined with 10% investor allocation = 16% of supply locked for 12 months)
19:23 - The product thesis
20:48 - Polymarket criticism
22:55 - GTM strategy
30:51 - "The only place to build our consumer application right now is on Solana"
38:25 - Parimutuel mechanic explained
39:34 - White-label resolution engine
41:28 - Biggest announcement yet is on the way 🚨
Prediction markets are an incredibly nascent space right now, yet everyone and their mother are building a copy cat or an aggregator.
@pumpcade is a ground up entirely new imagination of what you can do with outcome speculation.
This is why everyone we give alpha to says this.
got a sneak peak into what @pumpcade guys are building
this might be one of the strongest consumer applications built on solana. ever.
team is ex pump, jump, gaming giants and know how to make you glued to the screen

Stories like this are why I quit my job to build @pumpcade.
For the first 6 months I was solo, without paying myself a dime. I didn’t care.
It’s because the mission is so important. If you are correct, you should never be a loser. Humans do not belong in the resolution loop.
First of all, I want to sincerely thank @WSJ and @aosipovich for covering my Polymarket case and taking the time to understand the full story.
But of course, the thank-you list does not stop there.
I also want to thank @TheBlockCo , @cryptodotnews , @CryptoTimes_io ,
Haven't been very active here and it's for very good reasons. The @pumpcade team is VERY active behind the scenes.
Right now we're:
1. Finishing mobile apps (iOS and Android)
2. Integrating the new UI from design team
3. Integrating World Cup Markets
4. LEGAL STUFF
Pumpcade
Pumpcade fixes this.
Sports, stock, crypto, and futures markets (and many more soon) that are instantly resolved at market end by official verifiable data sources.
A truth machine should have no humans in the loop.
Polymarket’s system for resolving disputes is drawing scrutiny from traders. In nearly 20% of disputes reviewed by the Journal, accounts deciding the outcome were tied to bets in the same market. on.wsj.com/3RQqeZt
Soon this will be the defacto way to live bet sports.
- Will the next pitch be a ball or strike
- USA goal in the next 5 minutes
- What side of the field will the ball be on in 1 minute
And just wait till they start cooking on football for the fall
Anyways, pumpcade
Created and assigned 4 beefy tickets for each one of my engineers related to sports markets
20 hours later and all the work is done
@pumpcade engineering team ships at an unfathomable pace
I can confidently say that our sports markets are one of the most fun things onchain
100% of team efforts are now on @pumpcade sports markets.
We've historically built in public and shared progress screenshots/videos along the way, but not this time.
When it drops, it drops. We haven't seen any approaches to sports markets like this... EVER.
Pumpcade.
