Crypto.com, Underdog to launch prediction markets where sports betting is still banned

Crypto.com, Underdog to launch prediction markets where sports betting is still banned

The post Crypto.com, Underdog to launch prediction markets where sports betting is still banned appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto.com and Underdog are launching sports prediction markets across 16 U.S. states where gambling on sports is still banned. They’re building a new system that dodges gaming regulators by not calling it betting. Instead, it’s a tradeable contract based on game outcomes, and yes, it’s real money. The structure is simple. Crypto.com’s U.S.-registered derivatives arm, CDNA, will provide the infrastructure. Underdog will run the front-end, where users actually place the trades, using its existing app. There will be no sportsbooks, no odds from a bookmaker, and no need for state betting licenses. Everything runs on pricing from market activity alone. The more people buy into an outcome, the more expensive it gets. If you sell at the right time, you profit. If your outcome wins and the market agrees, you profit. No one takes your bet, because it’s not a bet, it’s a contract. Underdog moves first while others circle the space Underdog is the first sports gaming platform to fully step into this kind of setup. It’s a market space that blends the mechanics of crypto, finance, and sports into a single tradeable product. CEO Jeremy Levine said on CNBC’s Worldwide Exchange that “prediction markets are one of the most exciting developments we’ve seen in a long time,” and added, “While still new and evolving, one thing is clear; the future of prediction markets is going to be about sports, and no one does sports better than Underdog.” Others are watching closely. Platforms like Robinhood, Kalshi, and Polymarket already offer event-based contracts tied to sports, but none have the kind of reach or existing user base that Underdog has in fantasy gaming. On top of that, FanDuel, which is owned by Flutter, recently announced a partnership with CME Group to offer similar financial products. DraftKings boss Jason Robins has…

Crypto.com has partnered with prediction market platform Underdog, marking a major expansion of its offerings beyond crypto trading Users can trade contracts based on predicted sports outcomes (ranging across NFL, college football, NBA, MLB, and more) using a market-driven model instead of fixed odds This isn’t the first time Crypto.com had dabbled in sports, since the company first launched its Sports Event Trading product nationwide in late 2024, under the CFTC’s Crypto.com has partnered with prediction market platform Underdog to launch sports prediction markets in 16 US states, marking a major expansion of its offerings beyond crypto trading. How Does the New Sports Prediction Market Work? Users can trade contracts based on predicted sports outcomes (ranging across NFL, college football, NBA, MLB, and more) using a market-driven model instead of fixed odds. It’s a fusion of finance and fandom, where supply and demand set the price of a prediction. This isn’t the first time Crypto.com had dabbled in sports since the company first launched its Sports Event Trading product nationwide in late 2024, under the oversight of the CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission). That was one of the first federally regulated platforms of its kind. Related: Truth Social to integrate CRO payments in massive Trump Media, Crypto.com deal As for Underdog, it has become the first fantasy sports operator to formally enter prediction markets. For Crypto.com, the expanded reach and Underdog’s sports infrastructure create a powerful combination. Still, not everything was smooth for the cryptocurrency company. Earlier this year, Ohio regulators ordered Crypto.com (alongside Kalshi and Robinhood) to cease sports prediction offerings within the state over legal concerns. In some other states, the legal footing of these products remains a gray area. Aligning with Underdog ties crypto exposure to fan engagement, potentially migrating users into Crypto.com’s exchange and DeFi products.…

Crypto prediction markets open ‘Trump out’ bet amid death rumors

Crypto prediction markets open ‘Trump out’ bet amid death rumors

The post Crypto prediction markets open ‘Trump out’ bet amid death rumors appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto prediction markets are now taking bets on Donald Trump being “out as president” by the end of the year after rumors of poor health and a number of photos in which he looked particularly frail led to speculation around his possible impending death. The bets were opened by rival predictions markets Kalshi and Polymarket on August 30, and September 1, respectively, and currently give trump an 9%-10% “chance” of leaving the White House before 2026. The timing suggests the two crypto firms are trying to capitalize on rumors of Trump’s death that spread across X last weekend. the betting platforms can’t open markets on Trump’s death for obvious reasons, but Kalshi just so happened to open up a “Trump out as President” market on Saturday pic.twitter.com/fnpFlBoUNe — Molly White (@molly0xFFF) September 2, 2025 Read more: Crypto traders ‘talking to lawyers’ over Polymarket’s Zelenskyy suit bet The rumors were stoked by recent pictures of Trump’s bruised hand. However, back in July, the White House claimed this bruising was actually due to chronic venous insufficiency that stemmed from  “frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin.” Every year, roughly 150,000 new patients are diagnosed with the disease that can cause “a diminished quality of life and loss of work productivity,” with symptoms including “pain, leg swelling, pruritus, skin discoloration, and limb heaviness.” On August 31, Trump also uploaded an image to Truth Social of him playing golf with Jon Gruden, which led to accusations of him posting old photos. This is based on the clothes Gruden is pictured wearing that match another golf trip he shared photos of on August 23. Gruden’s golfing attire on August 23 matches the clothes he wore in Trump’s photo. For a few days, Trump disappeared from public view, but was eventually pictured visiting his Virginia Club…

Crypto.com and Underdog partner to offer sports prediction markets

The post Crypto.com and Underdog partner to offer sports prediction markets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto.com logo displayed on a phone screen with representation of cryptocurrencies. Nurphoto | Nurphoto | Getty Images Fantasy and sports gaming operator Underdog is partnering with Crypto.com to offer sports prediction markets in 16 states, mostly focused on where legal sports betting has not been adopted, the companies told CNBC on Tuesday. “Prediction markets are one of the most exciting developments we’ve seen in a long time, ” Underdog founder and CEO Jeremy Levine said on CNBC’s “Worldwide Exchange” Tuesday. “While still new and evolving, one thing is clear — the future of prediction markets is going to be about sports — and no one does sports better than Underdog.” Underdog is the first sports gaming platform to enter the new and rapidly expanding prediction market industry, which is a modern chimera of financial trading and sports betting: Traders buy and sell the outcome of sporting events, but the odds change according to market movements, and there’s no bookmaker. Robinhood, Kalshi and Polymarket already offer sports events contracts. FanDuel, owned by Flutter, announced earlier this month that it would partner with the CME Group to offer financial events contracts. DraftKings CEO Jason Robins has also told CNBC he’s interested in entering the fray. Sports events contracts could be especially lucrative for platforms that bypass state gaming regulators and tribal pushback. The nation’s most populous states, California and Texas, do not offer legal sports betting. In Florida, the third most populous state, the Seminole Tribe has a near monopoly on legal gambling through its Hard Rock casinos and sportsbooks. These markets remain inaccessible to legal sportsbooks, and the tribes have demonstrated a commitment to fending off what they consider to be a competitive threat to their sovereign rights. The Commodities and Futures Trading Commission and federal courts are still grappling with…

Myriad Surpasses $10M Trading Volume in Prediction Markets

Myriad Surpasses $10M Trading Volume in Prediction Markets

The post Myriad Surpasses $10M Trading Volume in Prediction Markets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This milestone reflects the quick adoption of Myriad as well as the company’s aim to develop prediction markets as a fundamental segment within the DeFi industry. Since its introduction, Myriad has been able to support more than 5.4 million forecasts, its browser extension has been installed more than 60,000 times, and it has swiftly moved into the top tier of Web3 trading apps. Myriad, a Web3 prediction and trading protocol, made the announcement today that it has crossed $10 million in USDC trading volume since its introduction. Additionally, it has onboarded more than 511,000 users. This milestone reflects the quick adoption of Myriad as well as the company’s aim to develop prediction markets as a fundamental segment within the decentralized finance industry. The beginnings of Myriad may be traced back to two pioneering media companies in the Web3 landscape: Decrypt and Rug Radio. The mentality of the platform has been formed by this tradition, which has also contributed to the early momentum. The objective of Myriad is to make information itself a marketable asset class. Since its introduction, Myriad has been able to support more than 5.4 million forecasts, its browser extension has been installed more than 60,000 times, and it has swiftly moved into the top tier of Web3 trading apps. All of this has been accomplished while remaining faithful to its purpose.

Prediction market hype returns despite skepticism

Prediction market hype returns despite skepticism

The post Prediction market hype returns despite skepticism appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Prediction markets are making a comeback, attracting big exchanges, brokerages, and crypto-native startups. Yet, questions remain about whether these platforms can grow into reliable, lasting sources of insight. Summary Prediction markets are back, drawing attention from exchanges, brokerages, and crypto startups. Politics, finance, and sports are all on the table as platforms like Polymarket, Kalshi, Robinhood, and a Coinbase-backed team expand offerings. Still, doubts linger over whether these markets can scale beyond hype, with new entrants aiming to combine decentralization and regulatory compliance. It’s quite hard to miss the noise. Prediction markets are back in the headlines, and this time the players include established exchanges, mainstream brokerages, and a fresh wave of crypto-native startups. Politics, finance, and sports are all on the menu. Polymarket and Kalshi are expanding their product sets, brokerage giant Robinhood is layering prediction contracts into its app, and a Coinbase-backed team just raised a high-profile seed round to build a regulated, on-chain alternative. Still, the same doubts that trailed earlier attempts haven’t evaporated. Can these markets scale into useful, durable sources of information, or are they mostly a venture cycle of hype, liquidity, and caution? Blockchain bets and regulations This summer, a new entrant called The Clearing Company announced a $15 million seed round led by Union Square Ventures and joined by Haun Ventures, Variant, and Coinbase Ventures as it seeks to build “the first on-chain, permissionless and regulated prediction market.” The startup, founded by a former Polymarket executive, pitches itself as a way to marry decentralization with the compliance that institutional and regulatory partners demand. At the same time, Polymarket — which has been the most visible crypto-native prediction platform — signaled a renewed push into the U.S. market after a strategic investment from 1789 Capital and the addition of Donald Trump Jr. to its…

Will Bitcoin Collapse Before Year-End? Prediction Markets Say Yes

Will Bitcoin Collapse Before Year-End? Prediction Markets Say Yes

The post Will Bitcoin Collapse Before Year-End? Prediction Markets Say Yes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin After climbing to an all-time high above $124,000 in mid-August, Bitcoin has slipped back under $110,000 and is now trading in a narrowing range. While some long-term bulls still see $200,000 as a realistic target before 2026, short-term sentiment is turning more cautious. Prediction Markets Signal Bearish Tilt Data from Polymarket shows a majority of bettors now believe Bitcoin will slide below six figures before the year ends. The market is pricing in a 62% chance of a drop under $100,000, reflecting growing conviction after BTC dipped under $110,000 for the first time in six weeks. Analysts Weigh Institutional Support vs. Whale Selling Min Jung, an analyst at Presto Research, said the bearish outlook cannot be dismissed. According to Jung, institutional buyers and corporate treasuries have so far absorbed most of the selling pressure from long-term holders. That dynamic has kept the market from experiencing a deeper breakdown. But the analyst warned that this balance could shift quickly. “If large investors decide to unload more aggressively, the key question is whether there will be enough new inflows to absorb that supply,” Jung said. Without continued demand from big players, a break below $100,000 becomes increasingly likely. A Critical Test Ahead For now, Bitcoin remains in a tug-of-war between resilient institutional demand and the looming threat of whale sell-offs. Prediction markets suggest traders are preparing for the downside, even as long-term forecasts continue to point toward six-figure gains. Whether BTC holds the line or cracks below $100,000 may determine how investors approach the final stretch of 2025.
