Prediction markets have a loneliness problem. You make a sharp call and your balance ticks up. Great.
But nobody saw a thing.
So we put a Twitch chat right against the chart. Getting it right hits different with a lobby watching.
Most people have opinions about everything.
The next step is giving those opinions a place to compete.
That's what caught my attention about @Yochigg.
Yochigg combines social interaction with prediction markets, allowing users to create and participate in predictions around crypto, sports, and real world events.
Instead of just sharing a take and moving on, users can engage with others, discuss outcomes, and back their predictions in a more interactive environment that feels similar to a live Twitch chat.
A few things that stand out:
➺ Social prediction markets built around real conversations.
➺ A simple way for users to share insights and test their predictions.
➺ A more engaging alternative to traditional discussions.
➺ A bridge between social experiences and on-chain participation.
Prediction markets are becoming a powerful tool for understanding collective opinions, and adding a social layer makes the experience even more interesting.
Yochigg is building a space where conversations don't just happen, they have outcomes.

Mark someone as your nemesis and Yochi pings you the second they drop into a round. Every head-to-head you play gets written to both profiles and stays there for good.
There's no cleaner way to settle who's the real trader and who's just been LARPing as one.

Yochi (予知) = Foresight
Imagine a price prediction market with a Twitch chat, leaderboards and a friend/nemesis system.
Call the market's next move and put your money where your mouth is, right alongside the lobby.
Everyone's position (or lack of one) is visible to everyone, so larps get found out quick. Choose a nemesis and make it personal.
Nothing else out there plays like it.

Yochi runs on Hyperliquid.
Part of why we chose Hyperliquid as our home has nothing to do with the tech. The chain took no VC money and let the product do the talking, and the whole ecosystem inherited that culture.
Yochi is the same - it's just us building the protocol we want to play and answering to nobody but the lobby.
Felt like the right neighbourhood.
