The rollout extends the operations the protocol had run preliminarily within the Phantom wallet since July 2026. With this step,the catalog exceeds 150,000 available markets,covering NFL regular-season games, seven professional soccer leagues, Formula 1, and the US midterm elections scheduled for 2026.
Each contract trades under a binary scheme of closed “yes” and “no” optionswith values ranging between $0 and $1. According to market reports, prices reflect the probability estimated by participants, settling at $1 for the winning outcome and $0 for the discarded option.
World operates under a non-custodial technical architecture, meaning it does not hold operator-deposited funds. The system requires no brokerage account registration or centralized exchange verification. Users pay standardSolana networkfees when opening or closing positions.
The platform routes orders directly to decentralized liquidity providers within the ecosystem.
Automated Settlement and On-Chain Liquidity
Contract resolution is powered byChainlink Data Streamsand theChainlink RuntimeEnvironment (CRE). This integration enables automated processing of final outcomes upon reaching the deadline or concluding an event. Technical documentation from the firm indicates that this mechanism eliminates the need for human panels or token-holder voting committees.
Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer atChainlink Labs, noted that the demand seen on the waitlist reflects strong interest in fast, transparent on-chain settlements. For sporting events, the network requires verified final scores; for monetary policy contracts, the system processes officialFederal Reservedecisions.
Meanwhile, Ramzy Ali, Head ofDecentralized Financeat theSolana Foundation, explained that the model retains 100% of liquidity directly on-chain. Data provided by the protocol confirms that operations avoid centrally controlled off-chain order books.
As of the date of publication,Worldhas not disclosed official figures regarding daily trading volume, exchange fees, or cumulative open interest.
The company has also not specified whether it holds registrations with the US CommodityFutures Trading Commission (CFTC). Therefore, effective access for US-based traders remains subject to local jurisdictional regulations.
World’sannounced expansion roadmap includes introducing directional contracts on traditional equities. Moving forward, the protocol plans to add markets tied to commodities such as gold, silver, crude oil, and natural gas, along with weather derivatives for major metropolitan areas.
