Expanded Catalog
Beyond the core six modules (Rewind, Fast-Forward, Loop, Slow, Freeze, Fork), the protocol roadmap includes 13 additional powers. These range from near-term Tier 2 buildouts to long-horizon Tier 4 ecosystem products.
Tier 1 — Ship Next
Section titled “Tier 1 — Ship Next”YIELD CLOCK
Section titled “YIELD CLOCK”One-liner: Passive yield on locked prediction positions.
Lock an open position into a Yield Clock escrow for a defined window. The position earns structured yield (from the FF vault’s spread income) while it remains locked. Users who would otherwise exit early via FF can instead earn while they wait for resolution.
| DeFi analogue | Aave/Compound deposit yield |
| Game analogue | Idle clicker mechanics (time = passive income) |
| Dependencies | FF vault operational |
| Phase | Tier 1 — ship after FF |
Tier 2 — Ship Next
Section titled “Tier 2 — Ship Next”DEADLINE
Section titled “DEADLINE”One-liner: “When will this market resolve?” meta-markets on resolution timing.
Resolution timing is uncertain and systematically mispriced. DEADLINE creates meta-markets: participants bet on when a market will resolve, not just what it will resolve to. Creates a secondary market on resolution timing uncertainty.
| DeFi analogue | Duration risk in fixed income |
| Game analogue | Countdown timers as skill mechanics |
| Dependencies | None (standalone) |
| Phase | Tier 2 — low build cost |
ANCHOR
Section titled “ANCHOR”One-liner: Conviction locks that earn better FF terms.
Lock a position for a defined period. The lock signals conviction, which the vault rewards with improved FF exit terms (0.5–2% additional premium). Early unlock forfeits the benefit. The cheapest possible addition to the FF vault — a timelock escrow wrapper.
| DeFi analogue | veCRV conviction locks |
| Game analogue | Commitment mechanics |
| Dependencies | FF vault operational |
| Phase | Tier 2 — bundle with FF Phase 1 |
CHRONICLE
Section titled “CHRONICLE”One-liner: Calendar spreads on related markets across different time horizons.
Chronomancy creates a structured spread between related markets at different resolutions: “Q3 2026 vs Q4 2026 GDP outcome” or “ETH price at 3 months vs 6 months.” Professional traders use calendar spreads as core tools — no prediction market platform offers them natively.
| DeFi analogue | Fixed-income term structure |
| Game analogue | Age of Empires time-horizon planning |
| Dependencies | Sufficient related markets to spread |
| Phase | Tier 2 |
Tier 3 — Moat Builders
Section titled “Tier 3 — Moat Builders”One-liner: Theta trading on prediction market positions.
As markets approach resolution, probability converges toward 0 or 1. DRIFT captures this theta decay: buy positions from users who want to exit, hold them as they converge. The Dalen logit jump-diffusion model (arXiv:2510.15205) prices the expected convergence path.
| DeFi analogue | Options theta harvesting |
| Game analogue | Time-sensitive opportunities |
| Dependencies | Dalen model backtested on real data |
| Phase | Tier 3 |
CONVERGENCE
Section titled “CONVERGENCE”One-liner: Cross-platform margining — use positions on one platform as collateral for another.
A user holding a correlated position on Azuro and Kalshi can cross-margin their exposure rather than over-collateralizing twice. This is the highest-complexity power — requires deep integration with multiple platforms’ collateral systems.
| DeFi analogue | Cross-margin accounts in futures |
| Game analogue | Resource sharing across factions |
| Dependencies | Multi-platform integration proven, $10M+ TVL |
| Phase | Tier 3 |
Tier 4 — Ecosystem Products
Section titled “Tier 4 — Ecosystem Products”| Power | One-liner | DeFi Analogue |
|---|---|---|
| ECHO | Retroactive accuracy rewards for early-market predictions | Retroactive public goods funding |
| HOURGLASS | Time-locked position vesting schedules | Token vesting contracts |
| FLASHPOINT | High-frequency resolution markets (hourly/daily) | HFT / intraday options |
| SPLIT-SECOND | Binary micro-markets on event sub-components | Binary options |
| PARADOX | Markets that resolve based on their own prediction accuracy | Self-referential contracts |
| AFTERIMAGE | Replay markets on historical events for training | Backtesting simulations |
| TEMPO | Batch auction clearing for market makers | Frequent batch auctions (CoW Protocol) |
| STASIS | Volatility insurance / Prediction Market VIX | VIX derivatives |

| 2 | DEADLINE, ANCHOR, CHRONICLE | Phase 1 complete |
| 3 | DRIFT, CONVERGENCE | Phase 2 complete + $10M TVL |
