Asia-Native markets — the catalog PAX is built around

Why build a category here
The creator economy pays you 10 % of every fill on markets spawned from your template — for the life of the market. Asia-native categories are structurally under-served, meaning cleaner user acquisition and repeat volume for events that happen weekly (K-pop charts) or seasonally (cricket tournaments) — repeat revenue over years, not one-shot deals.
The Builder track specifically funds category expansion into K-pop / cricket / ASEAN elections / JP macro. Apply if you have expertise in any of them.
