Bigshortbets is a fully decentralized futures market that enables true peer-to-peer trading on custom and community-created unique markets.
From classic crypto assets and CME-style instruments settled in USDC, to markets based on real-world events, such as poll-based Trump/Harris contracts, Bigshortbets' decentralized P2P model allows the creation of markets on virtually any asset or event, requiring only an agreed-upon oracle.
Unlike traditional futures markets, where orders are pooled and counterparties remain anonymous, on Bigshortbets trades occur directly between participants. This true peer-to-peer architecture enables unique features, such as the visibility of any user's balances and positions, or the P2PMarketChat, which enables direct communication between market users, fostering greater transparency and interaction. Explore other innovations enabled by our peer-to-peer and decentralized model, like on-demand Mark-to-Market (MTM), in the Unique Features section.
After 2 years of R&D and strategic pivots, BigShortBets has emerged stronger and more resilient. We are excited to present our decentralized P2P market. BigShortBets aims to launch the world’s largest P2P market without KYC and AML constraints. Our platform facilitates direct transactions between users, allowing you to create and trade unique, event-driven markets. As proof, we’ve already launched a special U.S. election polls market featuring a Biden/Trump trading contest.
Whether speculating on prices or major events, our true P2P setup means you’re directly trading with another user and can even chat with them in real-time. With ultra-low fees, zero swaps, and native token support, we are ready to shake up the landscape of P2P trading. Enjoy experimenting on our testnet as we prepare for real-money trading soon.
While today’s centralized exchanges only allow you to bet on crypto-crypto contracts and DEX exchanges, on the other hand, have limitations related to their design, which eliminates the possibility of dynamic trading with a price limit, and also forces users to create a pool of liquidity and then trade, while increasing the risk of investment. Contrary to the above, BigShortBets is the ability to create any instruments / bets paired with stablecoins and trade them directly with other users on a Peer-2-Peer basis.
