    Charles Hoskinson and Ding X on Predict.Fun, Privacy and Building in Public
    Feb 18 2026
    Charles Hoskinson and former-anonymous PancakeSwap founder Ding X discuss the shift from pseudonymous building to public leadership and the launch of Predict.fun's yield-bearing NFT prediction markets. In this interview from CoinDesk Live at Consensus Hong Kong, Input Output Founder and CEO, and Cardano creator Charles Hoskinson sits down with Ding X, the former-anonymous founder of PancakeSwap, to discuss the intersection of DeFi, NFTs, and the future of prediction markets. Ding, who recently went public after a decade of building in the shadows, shares the reality of transitioning from a pseudonymous whale to a public-facing CEO. The two dive into why the NFT ecosystem shifted toward meme coins and how Ding’s new project, Predict.fun, is re-architecting prediction markets by turning wagers into yield-bearing NFTs. - This episode was hosted live by Jennifer Sanasie and Sam Ewen at Consensus Hong Kong 2026, presented by Hex Trust.
