No-Loss Trading Platform UpsideOnly Surpasses 100,000 Users Within Weeks of Launch

Perpetuals.com Ltd (Nasdaq: PDC), today announced that UpsideOnly, its risk-free trading and market prediction platform, has seen a surge in new user sign-ups, surpassing the important milestone of 100,000 traders within weeks of its launch on May 19.

UpsideOnly lets users make predictions about where global equity, commodity, forex, and crypto markets are heading without ever placing a real trade themselves. Perpetuals uses its own capital to trade on the strongest signals identified by its proprietary AI. If those trades win, Perpetuals shares the profits with the users who helped generate the signal. If the trade doesn’t make money, users lose nothing.

Reaching 100,000 users so quickly after launching is a reflection of the enormous demand for a platform that flips the traditional retail trading model on its head, with early platform data showing strong engagement across asset classes, geographies and user activity:

• Users from more than 180 different countries
• $38.4 billion in cumulative platform volume
• 1,110,385 fills across 25 instruments
• US Crude Oil Futures (WTI) was the most-traded asset, ahead of Bitcoin (BTC)

These 100,000 groundbreaking users do more than trade; they generate the signals that power the business. Perpetuals's patent-pending BayesShield AI filters their collective predictions for genuine, repeatable skill, and the company trades its own capital on the strongest signals, sharing the upside with the users who produced them, a proprietary-trading model designed to monetize crowd intelligence rather than user losses.

“Reaching 100,000 users this quickly is more than a growth milestone. It is proof that the current model is broken and traders are looking for a better approach,” said Patrick Gruhn, CEO of Perpetuals. “Prediction markets have become some of the most extractive products in finance, using powerful technology to keep users engaged while most of them lose. UpsideOnly shows that the same forces – AI, market prediction and crowd intelligence – can be used in a way that rewards users instead of exploiting them.”

The unique nature of UpsideOnly means users also avoid the financial losses they would have incurred if they had been trading with their own money. To-date, UpsideOnly has saved users a total of $28.6 million in potential losses, averaging $1,429 in avoided loss per losing users. One UpsideOnly user would have lost a staggering $235,666 if trading with their own money.
