“If prediction markets are going to shape how society decides truth, they can’t belong to corporations.”
That’s the core thesis behind @AuraMarkets
In Part 2 of my latest article, I break down:
- Why centralized prediction markets are a single point of failure
- How community-driven resolution actually works
- Why users should earn fees, not just pay them
This isn’t about gambling.
It’s about who gets to decide the future.

🗣️ "Decentralization is so important. If prediction markets are to become a foundational tool for how society discerns truth and forecasts what’s coming, they must belong to everyone, not just a privileged few."
@HaydenAlph delivers serious wisdom and food for thought in the latest @AuraMarkets article.

🧪 Launching a new experiment on @alephium: Chain Reaction!
Last player standing wins the pot. Each entry costs more, resets the timer (minus 1 min), and burns tokens. The clock keeps tightening until someone claims it all.
Starting as low as 0.02 $ALPH, with 20% increase and 5% burn.
Think you can time it right? Link below
In case you missed our last X Space, @HaydenAlph jumped on to explore why decentralized prediction marketplaces are inevitable and necessary.
Enjoy it again now 👇
Moving and grooving, 2026 is back in full swing!
While the crypto industry may be feeling down in the dumps, the Alephium ecosystem is enjoying an inspired resurgence. This is largely thanks to the recent activity of @linx_labs, @AuraMarkets, and @ElexiumFinance (among others!).
Now, it's time for your fortnightly ecosystem catchup, with @carlitacrypto_ and @BigPepGhost.
You guessed it, it's ALEPHIUM ASSEMBLE!
Episode 11 has dispatched... 👇
🚨New $ALPH Richlist🚨
Late announcement, but I built a new tool for ANY token on @alephium
You can:
-view holders, status badges & stats
-customize data & badges
-search for address

@alephium@carlitacrypto_@BigPepGhost Huge thanks for having us on, awesome conversation.
Come say hi on Telegram: https://t.co/4UwkxWeYnF
And try out Testnet here: https://t.co/Wz9PCNTVrZ
🧑🔧 Assembling the Engine: Update 23/01 🛠️
Our core devs have now shifted into a refinement phase.
This week involved some refactoring across the stack, with the intention being that every interface becomes faster and more intuitive, while every backend route becomes more robust.
We are focused on doing the final polish required to deliver the Web3 experience you deserve.
Frontend & UX Evolution
▪️ Added a dedicated “Buy” page to the core interface.
▪️ Completed an overhaul of the “Portfolio” and “Pools” pages to improve performance and layout.
▪️ Refactored the add/remove liquidity flows for both CPMM and CLMM, including a fix for the "Max Liquidity" SDK calls.
▪️ Fixed the display of opened positions, PnL tracking, and pool naming within the details modals.
▪️ Corrected bottom padding across all pages to prevent overlap with the navigation bar on smaller screens.
▪️ Integrated refactored backend endpoints and replaced the token price endpoint with a more reliable explorer-based source.
Backend & SDK Hardening
▪️ Conducted a comprehensive refactor of the backend code to improve routes, types, and overall reliability.
▪️ Implemented better handling for groupless addresses in both the backend and the SDK, a key step for cross-shard usability.
▪️ Reviewed and merged refactored endpoints to support more efficient data delivery to the frontend.
Smart Contracts & Staking
▪️ Successfully implemented and tested the CLMM staking reward conversion logic.
▪️ Started the initial implementation for CPMM staking rewards.
▪️ Strengthened SDK support for groupless addresses specifically for staking interactions.
As a reminder, we are currently undergoing internal testing on a private testnet, the final stage of validation before we open the gates to the public testnet.
Thank you for your continued support,
Alephium Team
One small step for man, one giant leap toward Mainnet.
Bridge deposits are now live on Ethereum Sepolia!
We’ve enabled bridge deposits via Ethereum Sepolia through our integrated bridge, allowing users to move USDT between Ethereum and Aura.
To test the full flow:
• Withdraw USDT from your Aura passkey wallet to an Ethereum wallet (e.g. MetaMask)
• Deposit those same tokens back into Aura through the integrated bridge
This is a major milestone for Aura and a big step toward Mainnet.

🚨 X SPACE #002 ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
Join us for Alephium Ecosystem: Aura Farming!
🗓️ Jan 27th | 16:00 CET
🔔 Set a reminder & RT!
Your hosts, @Carlitacrypto_ and @BigPepGhost, will be taking a closer look at Aura, trying to leave no stone unturned when it comes to Alephium’s first prediction market platform.
They are joined by @HaydenAlph from @AuraMarkets to discuss:
🆙 The Sudden Rise of Prediction Markets
👁️ Immense Value in Seeing the Future
🔒 Testnet Progress & Updates
More Alephium Ecosystem X Spaces are coming this year!
Many prediction markets are coming.
But if prediction markets are going to shape how society decides truth, they can’t be owned by corporations.
That’s why only one is actually necessary.
Aura is built by the people, for the people. It is a fair, decentralized, community-owned alternative where users create markets, earn fees, and resolve outcomes themselves. No admin panels. No third-party oracles.
This is already happening at @auramarkets

probably the most obvious, plain, and still contrarian thing that will happen this year is that kalshi and polymarket will get a fully onchain permisionless competitor
people brought centralized exchanges onchain, pred markets are just options exchanges
only a matter of time
New update just dropped! 🎉
Presence on @Alephium now supports Series creation. Organize your events better by grouping multiple Presences under one series - perfect for recurring meetups, conferences, or workshop collections.
Create a series and your first event in a single transaction.
@HouseofChimera Without giving power to the people we will never get truth, only institutional consensus.
If prediction markets are going to shape how society decides truth, they cannot belong to corporations.
This isn’t about gambling.
It’s about governance.
That’s @AuraMarkets
