Numera keeps the market open and the trader private. Both at once, by design.

​
The market is fully public

All of it, deliberately:
  • Every market, its question, outcomes and deadline
  • The live price of every outcome
  • Every trade — market, side, size, time
  • How much money each market holds
  • How each market was resolved
Open data is what makes a prediction market worth reading. Anyone can audit any number on the site against the blockchain.

​
You are private

  • Your trades aren’t attributable to you
  • Your positions can’t be grouped together
  • Your total exposure is yours alone
  • Your funding source stays private

​
Three things make it work

Each covers a different angle. Together they close the loop.
Your device creates a separate account for each market you trade in, and that account is what appears on the blockchain.Since every market gets its own, your positions stand alone. There’s no thread joining them, so the public record shows individual trades rather than anybody’s portfolio.
Money reaches your trading accounts through a shared private pool.Think of a coat check. Many people hand in coats; you get a ticket. To collect, you prove you hold a valid ticket — without revealing which one. The pool hands one over and nobody watching learns whose it was.Numera does that with cryptography. Your account receives real funds from a source that stays genuinely private.
Blockchains charge a fee for every action. On Numera, your trading account never pays one and never holds the token used to pay it — Numera’s system covers it.That keeps your accounts clean. They exist only to hold your positions, with no funding trail attached to them, which is exactly what keeps them unlinkable.

​
Privacy by design, not by policy

Most services promise to protect the connection between you and your activity. Numera is built so that connection is never created in the first place. Numera knows you have an account. Numera knows which trades happened, because that’s public anyway. Nothing joins the two — there’s no table, encrypted or otherwise, matching people to positions. Your device holds that knowledge and can always rebuild it from your passkey. Open your portfolio and your browser asks about your own accounts and gets public data back. The question gets answered; it’s never recorded. It’s also why trading doesn’t require being logged in. Keeping your session out of the trade itself is what keeps the two sides separate.

​
Getting the most from it

A few habits keep your privacy at full strength.

Always fund from the private pool

This is the important one. Moving funds into a trading account from the pool is what keeps it unlinkable — send anything to it directly from a personal wallet and that transfer is public and permanent. The app always routes you through the pool; just let it.
Blend in. Privacy works through crowds. Round-ish amounts during busy periods blend more naturally than unusual amounts at quiet hours. Vary your patterns. Distinctive bet sizes or timing can be recognisable across accounts even with no technical link. Mixing things up keeps your activity ordinary. Cover your connection if it matters. Numera never ties your network connection to your trades, though your internet provider can see which sites you visit. A VPN or Tor closes that gap if your situation calls for it. Keep it to yourself. Screenshots and shared links carry information no system can take back.
