# Bynomo **Type:** Protocol **Domain:** internet-finance **Status:** Active (failed fundraise) **Description:** Binary options trading dapp using Pyth oracle feeds for on-chain settlement ## Overview Bynomo is a crypto-native binary options trading platform, positioning itself as a decentralized alternative to platforms like Binomo and IQ Option. The protocol uses Pyth oracle price feeds instead of centralized dealer pricing, with on-chain settlement. ## Product - **Trading rounds:** 5 seconds to 1 minute duration - **Asset coverage:** Crypto, stocks, forex, commodities - **Settlement:** On-chain via Pyth oracles - **Deployment:** Claims deployment on 8 chains ## Traction (as of April 2026) - ~12,500 bets settled - ~250 SOL in volume - ~76 unique wallets ## Fundraising Attempted fundraise on futard.io in April 2026: - **Target:** $50,000 - **Committed:** $16,000 (32% of target) - **Outcome:** Failed to reach target, signaling market skepticism ## Analysis The product represents an incremental improvement over web2 binary options platforms through oracle-based price feeds, eliminating house control of pricing. However, the failed fundraise suggests the market was unconvinced about either the team's execution capability or the product-market fit for gamified trading with a DeFi wrapper. ## Timeline - **2026-04** — Launched fundraise on futard.io, raised $16k against $50k target
