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, including market, side, size and time
  • How much money each market holds
  • How each market was resolved
Open data is what makes a prediction market worth reading. Anyone can check any number on the site against the blockchain.

​
You are private

  • Your trades are not attributable to you
  • Your positions cannot be grouped together
  • Your total exposure is yours alone
  • Your funding source stays private

​
Three things make it work

Each closes a different gap. The chain only holds if all three are in place. The dotted arrows are the breaks in the chain. Nothing on the blockchain connects your withdrawal back to your deposit, nothing connects one market account to another, and no fee payment ever ties an account to you. 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 is no thread joining them, so the public record shows individual trades rather than anybody’s portfolio.On a continuous market, one account carries you through every round on that asset, so you fund once instead of before every round. It is still a dedicated account for that asset alone, created the same private way, and still never tied to your identity.
Money reaches your trading accounts through a shared private pool.Think of a coat check. Many people hand in coats and 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 covers it.That keeps your accounts clean. They exist only to hold your positions, with no funding trail attached, which is exactly what keeps them private.

​
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 is public anyway. Nothing joins the two. There is no table, encrypted or otherwise, matching people to positions. Your device holds that knowledge and can always rebuild it from your passkey or wallet. Open your portfolio and your browser asks about your own accounts and gets public data back. The question gets answered. It is never recorded. It is also why trading does not 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 private. Sending anything to it directly from a personal wallet would be public and permanent. The app always routes you through the pool, so just let it.
Blend in. Privacy works through crowds. Ordinary amounts during busy periods blend more naturally than unusual amounts at quiet hours. Vary your patterns. Distinctive trade 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.
