Melee has raised $3.5 million in funding to make the world of speculation and betting more open. The funding came from Variant, DBA and various angel investors. The company will allow users to create both fact-based and opinion-based prediction markets.
New prediction market startup Melee will launch its platform called "Viral Markets". Among crypto-focused companies, Melee is observing the success of digital asset betting platforms such as Polymarket, which is growing in popularity in this space.
However, other innovative projects are also coming to the fore, such as Forecast Markets, a type of dated futures launched on Cleaemmatics's Autonity blockchain. Melee allows anyone to easily create a market, and predicts that prediction markets will evolve with the internet. "We don't see prediction markets as a winner-take-all space; like social networks, we see it as a new category where there can be many winners," Variant said in a statement.
Unlike existing platforms that rely on centralized teams or professional market makers, Melee uses a pricing mechanism that rewards agents who make early and accurate predictions. The design also aims to attract content producers. Influencers, podcasters or broadcasters will be able to monetize their trading activities by opening markets based on their audience's interests.
Melee's design allows for the opening of new markets and offers attractive opportunities for traders. Early entry means lower costs and the opportunity to earn high profits through increased participation rates. The project team includes experienced professionals from companies such as Solana, Avalanche, Monad, SIG, Microsoft and Amazon.
The long-term goal is to create a "human platform for the valuation of beliefs". Melee aims for this platform to reflect the ever-changing cultural sentiments of millions of markets in real time.
