Valkri

Valkri is a protocol that provides a credit and liquidity layer for prediction markets, covering scenarios such as elections, sports, and economic events. Traditionally, outcome tokens cannot be used until an event settles; Valkri lets holders use those positions as collateral to borrow stablecoins such as USDC without closing the underlying position, preserving upside exposure to the outcome. Borrowed funds can be put back into the market or used in other on-chain scenarios.

The protocol sets up isolated lending pools for each prediction market to prevent risk from spreading between markets, and uses a cross-margining mechanism to bundle weakly correlated positions into a single collateral basket. Valkri has also published compute price indices and extended the range of lending collateral to assets tied to AI compute. The protocol runs in a non-custodial way, with users interacting through self-custody wallets.
