Opinion Labs and Brevis Transform Prediction Markets with ZK Technology

prediction-kinda

Opinion Labs is thrilled to unveil a strategic partnership with Brevis, aimed at revolutionizing the settlement process of prediction markets through the innovative use of zero-knowledge technology. This collaboration tackles issues of transparency and verification by integrating Brevis’s ZK coprocessor into the Opinion Labs platform. The partnership is making it possible to have trustless and mathematically provable settlements with the centralized oracles. Opinion Labs is currently seeing $1.5 Billion in a weekly trading volume, showing that there is a huge demand for innovative prediction market infrastructure.

The Technical Innovation Behind the Partnership

Brevis works as an efficient zero knowledge coprocessor that allows smart contracts to get and use all past blockchain data in a trustless manner.  Unlike regular oracle systems that only send data, Brevis provides mathematical proof that the results of the computation are correct without disclosing how the math calculation was performed.

Technology works in an intricate three step process.  First, developers determine what exactly this on-chain data (the data that goes across the blockchains) needs in history they must access across the supported blockchains.  Next, Brevis does customize business logic off-chain and generates zero-knowledge proof for the results of the computations.  At last, such verified results are returned on-chain through usual callback functions, so smart contracts can use these data by having full assurance in their correctness.

For Opinion Labs, the integration itself means that prediction markets are now able to resolve outcomes based on verifiable data on-chain without the users having to trust the centralized authorities. With settlement data, you can track token prices, transaction volumes, and various blockchain events with mathematical precision.

Addressing Core Challenges in Prediction Markets

The prediction market industry has exploded in recent months with platforms such as Polymarket and Kalshi seeing billions of trading volume. However, the sector experiences massive problems in the process of resolving markets. The traditional prediction systems make use of either centralized orals or manual validation, increasing the chances of manipulation as well as transparency.

Zero-knowledge proof technology allows real-time verifications of transactions that do not require the release of any information about either party involved in the process or how that transaction was completed. This integration provides the ability for users to have an ability to trust the integrity of the marketplace as never before. All settlement transactions can now be verified using cryptographic verification, providing users with a permanent, unalterable record of each transaction.

Market Leadership and Future Implications

Opinion Labs has emerged as a great rival in the field of prediction market. Within a month of its launch on the BNB chain in October 2025, the platform managed to grab around 40% of the overall prediction market share as the people started buying and selling shares and the trading volume in the weekly trading sessions increased. This rapid increase indicates that the platform’s features and infrastructures are in great demand.

A rising trend towards deploying zero-knowledge proof technology is emerging in many decentralized finance applications. The recent collaboration between Opinion Labs and Brevis showcases this exciting momentum. Projections for 2024 project that the ZK proof industry will continue to grow dramatically from $1.29 billion to $7.69 billion by 2030 due to both the increasing number of institutions adopting ZK proof technology, and the overall demand for secure and verifiable computations.

Conclusion

This partnership is a pivotal moment for prediction markets as prediction markets turn into infrastructure-grade as institutional grade due to zero knowledge verification. This collaboration provides less counterparty risk, increased transparency and mathematical certainty in resolving outcomes. As the sector approaches $50 billion in annual volume, verifiable settlement becomes essential for mainstream adoption. This partnership demonstrates how cutting-edge technology solves decentralized finance challenges effectively.

(Photo by Paul Natkin/Getty Images) Getty Images Singer Lou Gramm has a vivid memory of recording the ballad “Waiting for a Girl Like You” at New York City’s Electric Lady Studio for his band Foreigner more than 40 years ago. Gramm was adding his vocals for the track in the control room on the other side of the glass when he noticed a beautiful woman walking through the door. “She sits on the sofa in front of the board,” he says. “She looked at me while I was singing. And every now and then, she had a little smile on her face. I’m not sure what that was, but it was driving me crazy. “And at the end of the song, when I’m singing the ad-libs and stuff like that, she gets up,” he continues. “She gives me a little smile and walks out of the room. And when the song ended, I would look up every now and then to see where Mick [Jones] and Mutt [Lange] were, and they were pushing buttons and turning knobs. They were not aware that she was even in the room. So when the song ended, I said, ‘Guys, who was that woman who walked in? She was beautiful.’ And they looked at each other, and they went, ‘What are you talking about? We didn’t see anything.’ But you know what? I think they put her up to it. Doesn’t that sound more like them?” “Waiting for a Girl Like You” became a massive hit in 1981 for Foreigner off their album 4, which peaked at number one on the Billboard chart for 10 weeks and…

New York Regulators Push Banks to Adopt Blockchain Analytics

New York Regulators Push Banks to Adopt Blockchain Analytics

New York’s top financial regulator urged banks to adopt blockchain analytics, signaling tighter oversight of crypto-linked risks. The move reflects regulators’ concern that traditional institutions face rising exposure to digital assets. While crypto-native firms already rely on monitoring tools, the Department of Financial Services now expects banks to use them to detect illicit activity. NYDFS Outlines Compliance Expectations The notice, issued on Wednesday by Superintendent Adrienne Harris, applies to all state-chartered banks and foreign branches. In its industry letter, the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) emphasized that blockchain analytics should be integrated into compliance programs according to each bank’s size, operations, and risk appetite. The regulator cautioned that crypto markets evolve quickly, requiring institutions to update frameworks regularly. “Emerging technologies introduce evolving threats that require enhanced monitoring tools,” the notice stated. It stressed the need for banks to prevent money laundering, sanctions violations, and other illicit finance linked to virtual currency transactions. To that end, the Department listed specific areas where blockchain analytics can be applied: Screening customer wallets with crypto exposure to assess risks. Verifying the origin of funds from virtual asset service providers (VASPs). Monitoring the ecosystem holistically to detect money laundering or sanctions exposure. Identifying and assessing counterparties, such as third-party VASPs. Evaluating expected versus actual transaction activity, including dollar thresholds. Weighing risks tied to new digital asset products before rollout. These examples highlight how institutions can tailor monitoring tools to strengthen their risk management frameworks. The guidance expands on NYDFS’s Virtual Currency-Related Activities (VCRA) framework, which has governed crypto oversight in the state since 2022. Regulators Signal Broader Impact Market observers say the notice is less about new rules and more about clarifying expectations. By formalizing the role of blockchain analytics in traditional finance, New York is reinforcing the idea that banks cannot treat crypto exposure as a niche concern. Analysts also believe the approach could ripple beyond New York. Federal agencies and regulators in other states may view the guidance as a blueprint for aligning banking oversight with the realities of digital asset adoption. For institutions, failure to adopt blockchain intelligence tools may invite regulatory scrutiny and undermine their ability to safeguard customer trust. With crypto now firmly embedded in global finance, New York’s stance suggests that blockchain analytics are no longer optional for banks — they are essential to protecting the financial system’s integrity.
