The Market Failure We're Solving
Over 220 million Latin Americans lack access to basic banking. Existing prediction markets exclude them entirely through KYC barriers, geographic restrictions, and US-centric design. We're building the alternative.
Why Latin America Needs This
Financial Exclusion is Systemic
33% of Latin American adults have no bank account. Traditional prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi require extensive KYC, US banking relationships, and exclude entire regions through geographic restrictions.
Existing Platforms are US-Centric
Polymarket blocks LATAM users. Kalshi requires US compliance. Both platforms focus on American politics and sports while ignoring the events that matter to 660 million Latin Americans.
The Region is Crypto-Native
Latin America is the world's fastest-growing crypto market (63% YoY growth). $1.5 trillion in transaction volume. 90% of Brazilian crypto flows are stablecoins used for practical utility, not speculation.
Our Approach
Stablecoin-First
Trade in USDC—the same stablecoin already used by millions in the region to preserve wealth against inflation. No need to hold volatile crypto.
Regional Markets That Matter
Politics in São Paulo. Elections in Buenos Aires. Economic policy in Mexico City. Markets created by and for Latin Americans, in Spanish and Portuguese.
Minimal Barriers
Email signup. Crypto wallet. Start trading. No extensive KYC, no US banking requirements, no artificial geographic restrictions for a decentralized platform.
Transparent Infrastructure
On-chain settlement, verifiable oracles, open-source contracts. When markets resolve, outcomes are independently verifiable—no central authority deciding who wins.
Why Prediction Markets Matter
Prediction markets aggregate information better than polls. They've proven more accurate than traditional forecasting in political elections, scientific research, and economic events.
But existing platforms serve a privileged minority—Americans with bank accounts and tolerance for invasive surveillance. Meanwhile, the fastest-growing crypto market in the world is locked out.
Advina exists because financial infrastructure should be permissionless. Because Latin Americans deserve access to the same forecasting tools available elsewhere. Because decentralized platforms shouldn't require centralized permission.
Built for a Market That's Already Here
57.7 million Latin Americans already use cryptocurrency. They're not waiting for permission. Neither are we.
