Futurum News

Missed us?

No, we haven’t resurrected yet. But maybe something will happen. Or maybe it won’t.

When the future isn’t predetermined, the best way to deal with it is a market. So we thought — why not create one about ourselves?

Will Futurum relaunch by March 16?

Unfortunately, this isn’t a promise. But the market is honest — even we don’t know the outcome yet. We’ll try our best, but things are still very uncertain.

We seeded equal liquidity on both sides to keep it 50/50. Everything else comes from user predictions.

Market volume might help us feel more confident about the future — even volume on “No.”

You know what to do.

An important announcement

All events in Futurum have now been resolved. There is no future anymore.

Go collect your winnings — the app will be shut down soon.

😭😭😭😭

Now — the practical part.

We will shut down the app on January 27, 2026.

Current markets scheduled to run until February 1 will be resolved on January 26, based on the situation at that moment.

We believe that most of those outcomes are unlikely to occur by month’s end (gift crafting, U.S. takeover of Greenland, regime change in Iran, Israel striking Iran).
So most of them will very likely resolve as “No.”

If you placed a “Yes” prediction on any of those markets, please message support or write in the chat — we’ll figure something out.

Football markets (Arsenal vs Man United and Newcastle vs Aston Villa) will be resolved as usual.

You will have 24 hours to withdraw your winnings before the shutdown — please don’t forget.

This also applies to any pending winnings you haven’t claimed yet — now is the time.

All good things must come to an end 🟩💚

Friends, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve been gradually reducing the number of markets. The truth is, Futurum as a project is approaching its end.

Our team has a small, lyrical message to share:

According to the data and sensors we’ve collected inside Futurum, in the days following this message an event is expected to occur — one that will affect the entire system.

The “information sea level” will rise. By roughly one meter — across the entire planet. Some islands will become uninhabitable. Some markets will disappear.
If this prediction doesn’t come true, feel free to ignore everything else in this message.

We tried to look into the place where the future isn’t fixed yet.
Where probabilities argue with each other,
and people place bets not on money — but on meaning, attention, and belief in an outcome.

But any technology lives only until the moment the world becomes ready for the next step. Sometimes an experiment must be stopped — not because it failed, but because it has already said everything it was meant to say.

Futurum wasn’t a marketplace. It was a reality laboratory.
And the questions it posed will stay with you.

Who shapes reality — the one who predicts it, or the one who believes the prediction?

Until the next era.

Trump, when asked whether he is prepared to take Greenland by force: “no comment.”

The U.S. president also added that he is 100% determined to impose tariffs on European countries if a deal on Greenland is not reached.

Will the U.S. take control of Greenland before February 1, 2026?

Gift-focused Telegram channels are still discussing the new crafting mechanic.

The final crafted gift will inherit the serial number of one of the gifts used in the craft.

Example: if you craft using Pepe #1, Pepe #2, and Pepe #3, the result will be Pepe #1, while the other gifts are burned.

You can craft 3 or 4 gifts at once!

Will Telegram introduce gift crafting before February 1, 2026?

What’s happening in Iran

Since late 2025, protests have erupted across the country. They began with economic demands but quickly shifted to political ones — and now demonstrators are openly calling for a change of government.

On Thursday, Iran effectively shut down national internet access; the blackout continues today, meaning information is coming in with significant delays. Still, the protests have not subsided.

Two markets for those ready to predict the outcome of this confrontation:

🇮🇷 Will the protests in Iran lead to a change of government before February 1, 2026?

🇮🇱 Will Israel strike Iran before February 1, 2026?

Financial analysts, assemble

We’re slowly coming back from the holidays and getting back to predicting the ruble.

The Central Bank (like the rest of us) is not operating until January 12. That means the official USD/RUB rate has been frozen at the level set on December 31, 2025 (78.23).

Over the holidays, Trump managed to carry out a rapid special operation in Venezuela and secure a significant amount of oil for the U.S.

Markets seem to be reacting positively — so the question is simple: will the official dollar rate jump on the first working day?

Will the U.S. dollar rise to 80 rubles on the first working day of 2026?

Bitcoin delivers a surprise

In the market “Will Bitcoin exceed $95,000 on January 7, 2026?” almost everyone went with No, yet BTC is getting dangerously close. It touched $94K today and has only slightly pulled back since.

That market is already closed — but you can still catch another crypto one just in time for Christmas:

Will the TON price rise on January 7, 2026?

Happy New Year we guess?

💚🎄 New Year markets (and you can jump in today!)

Unlike holiday salads, our New Year stash is ready to be opened early. Dive in!

Will Manchester United defeat Manchester City on January 17, 2026?

Will the TON price rise on January 7, 2026?

Will Telegram release new gifts for Orthodox Christmas?

Will Arsenal defeat Liverpool on January 8, 2026?

Will Manchester City defeat Chelsea on January 4, 2026?

hey how it's going

Upgrades for the Pendant?

A record-holder gift for the longest upgrade drought — NFT upgrades for the Pendant haven’t been released for 315 days.

Gift News put together a set of concept designs showing what upgraded Pendants could look like, and a Futurum user has launched a market on whether these upgrades will finally arrive before the New Year.

Do we trust the rumors and speculation — or will we be left without upgrades once again?

Will an upgrade for the Telegram gift “Pendant” be released before January 1, 2026?

Guessing Putin’s New Year’s address

How could we possibly skip the New Year tradition of watching the presidential address?

While the crypto markets are relatively quiet, we’re turning to fortune-telling on Putin’s speech. We’ve launched two markets at once – one from us, and one created by a user.

Will Vladimir Putin mention Donald Trump by name in his New Year’s address?

The market is leaning heavily toward “No” already. But if you believe Putin will actually say “Donald Trump” out loud (a direct personal mention – phrases like “American partners” don’t count), this might be your chance to stack some TON before the New Year.

Will the phrase “this year was difficult” be said in Vladimir Putin’s New Year’s address?

This one is a user-created market, and the rules are a bit looser. Any wording that clearly matches the meaning of the meme phrase about a “difficult year” will count. Similar variations like “this year was hard” are included – borderline cases will be discussed.

Jump in!

Most elements of the settlement plan being discussed between the United States and Ukraine have been agreed upon by both sides, including security guarantees, Axios reports, citing Ukrainian and U.S. officials.

Will a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine be announced before February 1, 2026?

Important update on the negotiations: Russia responds to the Ukraine–US peace plan

The peace plan agreed by Ukraine and the United States and presented today by Volodymyr Zelensky does not include key points important to Russia and leaves many questions unanswered, a Kremlin-linked source told Bloomberg.

At the same time, Moscow views the plan as a starting point for further negotiations.

Russia reportedly considers the document a “fairly typical Ukrainian plan,” but says it will review it “with a cool head,” the source added.

We’ve launched a new market on a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine before February 1, 2026.

Do you believe in peace in the new year?

TON is slowly drifting lower, but it’s still holding above $1.4.

TON is currently trading at $1.45. In the market “Will TON fall below $1.4 on December 27?”, the Yes side is slightly ahead of No right now — so if you believe it won’t drop below $1.4, this might be a good moment to place your prediction.
