TL;DR

Kasu.fun is building the cultural prediction layer of the internet. We turn narratives, memes, and digital attention into liquid, on-chain markets - and eventually, AI-powered ones. Users stake USDT on cultural outcomes: which NFT collection leads the week, which memecoin gains traction, which trend catches fire. At launch, it's all about NFT vs NFT matchups. But Kasu is designed to evolve - from meme-driven speculation into a full-scale prediction protocol powered by tokenized utility, AI-generated markets, and autonomous AI agents that learn and operate based on cultural signals. This isn't just speculation - it's a new format for interacting with real-time internet culture.

What is Kasu.fun?

Kasu.fun is where cultural conviction becomes tradable.

It's a prediction platform for the narrative economy - starting with NFTs, but expanding into any space where internet attention creates value. We turn crypto debates, meme cycles, social movements, and influencer trends into real-time markets where people can stake USDT - and eventually, where AI agents can also participate based on their training.

Markets aren't just about finance anymore. Kasu makes culture liquid.

Why Now?

• Everyone is already forming predictions - just not on-chain.
• Web3 is full of noise, but no way to channel conviction.
• Prediction markets haven't felt intuitive, fun, or culture-first. Kasu changes that.

Kasu is a new kind of interactive experience for Web3-native sentiment. Built for degens, data natives, and people who just know what's next.

What You Can Forecast (v1 Focus)

We launch with NFT vs NFT matchups (same or diff collections)- clean, binary, and verifiable:

• Higher floor price by a set date?
• More volume over the next 7 days?
• Higher Blur/OpenSea ranking by the end of the week?

Examples:

• Pudgy Penguins vs Azuki - higher floor by May 12?
• Milady vs DeGods - more volume this week?
• Doodles vs Sappy Seals - Blur leaderboard showdown?
• Milady vs Bord Ape, which one got sharper art?
• Cool Cats vs Quantum Cats, which one just cuter or more girl-vibe?

If there's no hard fact or final outcome, the AI decides based on everything it sees — including how well users argue their side, the social sentiment around the topic, and real-time engagement.

All outcomes are resolved using our in-house AI. It’s not about who’s “right.” It’s about who convinces better, vibes harder, and moves the crowd.

But NFTs are just the beginning. Future categories include:

• Memecoins - $PEPE vs $DOGE volume contests
• Influencer growth - who hits 1M followers first?
• Ecosystem traction - which L2 gains more users post-launch?
• Internet-wide sentiment - which trend leads CT next month?

If it's culturally relevant, Kasu makes it actionable.

How It Works

• Currency: USDT/C
• Market Type: Binary (Yes/No)
• Resolution Sources: Public APIs, supported by "houseAI" interpretation
• Fees: Small platform fee on resolved outcomes
• Moderation: Curator system for exception handling

Real-time odds. Transparent logic. Fast settlement. Built for cultural agility.

Our Mission

Kasu is building the infrastructure for cultural forecasting - a system where people and machines can express conviction about what’s coming next.

The future isn’t just about human input. It’s about:

• Structured access to cultural signals
• AI-generated markets based on trending narratives
• Intelligent agents forecasting outcomes from live data

We believe in a world where:

• Narrative is signal
• Culture is a measurable asset
• Forecasting is interactive - and increasingly intelligent

The Token (Coming Soon)

Our native token will support:

• Utility features like market creation, custom incentives, and AI query access (no governance initially)
• XP and airdrops for active participants
• The ability to create markets with sufficient $KASU holdings after a specific threshold.
• Boosts and dynamic options to adjust forecasts, including bet-swaps or outcome expansions
• Access to enhanced AI analytics, deeper signals, and forecast dialogues

No governance at the beginning. Human decision-making enters only if AI output fails or conflicts. Until then, houseAI handles all logic.

AI Layer (Coming Later)

Kasu’s AI system will unlock new predictive infrastructure.

Phase 1 - AI supports:

• Topic detection and market surfacing
• Matchup generation from social and on-chain signals
• Wallet behavior and forecasting performance tracking
• High-conviction signal boosts and intelligence layers

Phase 2 - AI participates:

• Trained on narrative velocity and attention metrics
• Generates and submits positions in markets
• Learns from resolution data to improve accuracy

The future of forecasting is collaborative - humans and AI co-operating on what matters.
