Antisso
A quad-layer predictive markets ecosystem engineered for regulated success. We provide the technology, compliance infrastructure, and operational tools — from onboarding to event management — needed to thrive in regulated predictive markets.
The Event Contracts
Antisso Layer 1: Designated Contract Market (DCM)
In prediction markets, a DCM serves as the regulated exchange that lists event-based contracts, operates the central limit order book where participants trade, and enforces market integrity rules within its jurisdiction’s regulatory framework. For investors, this structure provides the essential guardrails that distinguish compliant prediction markets from unregulated platforms.
The Brokerage
Antisso Layer 2: Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs)
In prediction markets, FCMs serve as the regulated brokerage layer connecting traders to Designated Contract Markets (DCMs). They act as a trader’s primary counterparty, responsible for opening and managing trading accounts, safeguarding deposited funds in segregated accounts, collecting and managing margin requirements, and routing orders to the exchange for execution.
The Users Home
Antisso Layer 3: Introducing Brokers (IBs)
IBs are the critical 'front office' interface between retail traders and the regulated FCM infrastructure. They own the customer relationship, the brand, and the user experience. Antisso’s solution allows IBs to launch instantly with a bespoke, white-label app and web portal. This gives IBs full control over the user journey—from KYC and funding to trade execution—while relying on Antisso’s backend for compliance and settlement.
The Settlement
Antisso Layer 4: Instant Settlement & Clearing
Antisso’s platform redefines the Central Counterparty (CCP) model by replacing traditional margining with proprietary instant settlement technology. Unlike legacy clearing houses that rely on complex risk models and default waterfalls, Antisso operates on a strictly pre-funded basis.
- Zero Counterparty Credit Risk: By requiring full funding for every buy and sell order prior to execution, we eliminate the possibility of settlement failure. There is no credit exposure between FCMs because no trade is matched unless the capital is already secured.
- No Margin Requirements: Our architecture removes the need for Initial Margin or Variation Margin calculations. Since every contract is fully collateralized at the moment of trade, the system remains immune to market volatility and liquidity crunches.
- Instantaneous Settlement: Trades are settled in real-time. This "atomic" settlement ensures that funds and contracts move simultaneously, providing absolute certainty of settlement without the T+1 or T+2 delays inherent in traditional finance.
