Approximately $260,000 has been drained from accounts on Predict Fun, a BNB-based prediction market, in an incident that is expected to continue.

Crypto analyst Dethective reported on Tuesday that they lost about $5,000 in the same incident tied to Predict Fun.

The stolen assets were moved across to Ethereum and subsequently sent through crypto mixer Tornado Cash.

“I think there’s something wrong going on with Predict Fun and I am not the only victim,” Dethective said.

Not long after, another crypto analyst, Naeven, traced funds taken from 19 Predict Fun victims and calculated the total at 105 ETH, valued at around $260,000.

Naeven further stated that there are probably additional victims and advised users to move any remaining funds out of Predict Fun.

Predict Fun backed by Changpeng Zhao’s investment firm

Created by ex-Binance employees, Predict Fun operates as a prediction market similar to Polymarket, serving the BNB ecosystem.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao also backed the platform, stating that YZI Labs—previously called Binance Labs—incubated and invested in it.

According to crypto data provider DefiLlama, Predict Fun generated just over $9 million in earnings in 2026.

Protos has contacted Predict Fun for a response and will update the story if it receives one.
