Social & Discussion

PrediX embeds social features directly into the trading interface - comment threads on every market, a global activity feed, long-form posts, and community moderation. Discussion lives next to the market it shapes, not in an external forum.

Comments per market

Section titled “Comments per market”

Every market has its own comment thread, accessed via the Discussion tab on the market detail page. Comments are threaded two levels deep - a top-level comment with one level of replies - and ranked by upvotes so the strongest argument rises to the top.

1. Features

Section titled “1. Features”
  • Threaded 2 levels (comment + reply).
  • Voting - up vote/down vote; top comments rise to the top.
  • Image embed - paste an image URL and the app renders it inline.
  • TX share - paste a txhash and the app renders an explorer link + summary.

2. Anti-spam

Section titled “2. Anti-spam”

PrediX enforces anti-spam through an economic gate rather than CAPTCHA alone:

  • Min stake of 10 PRX (post-TGE) to post.
  • Cooldown of 30 seconds between comments.
  • Rate limit of 50 comments / day / user.
  • Report button - flag inappropriate content.
  • Mod tools (community moderator role): hide comments, ban users for 24h.

The 10 PRX stake makes spam economically unprofitable while keeping the barrier low for genuine participants.

3. Trader badges in comments

Section titled “3. Trader badges in comments”

Usernames in comments display badges that surface the commenter’s track record:

  • Verified - ENS / Lens / Twitter linked.
  • Top trader - top 100 leaderboard.
  • High accuracy - Brier < 0.15 with > 50 trades.
  • PRX whale - stake > 10k PRX.

Badges help readers weigh the credibility of an argument before acting on it.

Social feed

Section titled “Social feed”

The /feed page is a global activity stream that merges on-chain transactions with off-chain social actions into a single timeline.

1. Filters

Section titled “1. Filters”
Filter Description

  • Activity from users you follow

2. Card types

Section titled “2. Card types”

Feed items render as typed cards, each linking back to its source object:

  • Trade card - User X bought $Y YES on market Z. Click → market detail.
  • LP card - User X provided $Y liquidity to pool Z.
  • Resolve card - Market Z resolved YES, $Y total volume traded.
  • Comment card - User X commented on market Z: “…” Click → discussion thread.
  • Badge card - User X earned the “Prophet” badge (80% accuracy).

Long-form Posts

Section titled “Long-form Posts”

Beyond short comments, users can publish posts - Twitter thread-style long-form content for deeper analysis:

  • Full Markdown support.
  • Tag market references (auto-linked).
  • Embed charts and images.
  • Long-form analysis (e.g. “Why I’m buying YES on the BTC market”).

Posts appear in three places:

  • The author’s profile (Posts tab).
  • Followers’ feeds.
  • Market detail (if a market is tagged).

Per-market activity feed

Section titled “Per-market activity feed”

The Activity tab on the market detail page is a realtime activity stream scoped to that specific market:

  • Trade ticker (size, price, side).
  • Order book changes (large limit orders).
  • LP add/remove events.
  • New comments.

Useful for monitoring hot markets and spotting whale moves as they happen.

Moderation

Section titled “Moderation”

PrediX uses a community moderation model - moderators are recruited from vePRX holders in good standing, not appointed centrally.

Content Moderation & Penalty Process

Section titled “Content Moderation & Penalty Process”

  1. Step 1: User Reporting

    • The process begins when a user flags and reports specific content for review.

  2. Step 2: Moderator Review

    • Our moderation team manually evaluates the reported content against community guidelines to determine its validity.

  3. Step 3: Initial Enforcement

    If the report is found to be valid:

    • The violating content is immediately hidden from public view.
    • The author receives a formal warning.

  4. Step 4: Escalation & Banning

    The system tracks recurring violations:

    • 3+ repeat offenses will trigger an automatic escalation.
    • The account will face a temporary ban ranging from 7 to 30 days, depending on the severity.

Note:

  • Mod recruitment - vePRX holders in good standing can apply.
  • Mod compensation - PRX from treasury.
  • Appeal process - banned users can appeal via governance.

Censorship Resistance

Section titled “Censorship Resistance”

Comments and posts are stored off-chain in MongoDB for fast UI rendering. Starting Phase 2, a hash of every comment is also stored on-chain as proof of existence.

Phase 2 - TBA

Section titled “Phase 2 - TBA”
Direct Messaging

Direct messaging between users. Planned features:

  • E2E encryption (XMTP protocol).
  • Group chat (DAO subgroups).
Wallet-to-wallet Messaging

Phase 2 will integrate XMTP — decentralized, end-to-end encrypted messaging between wallet addresses. Planned use cases include:

  • Negotiate OTC trades.
  • Coordinate liquidity provision.
  • Private discussions within working groups.
