Crypto.com gets into Prediction Markets through High Roller tie-up
Summary
Crypto.com has entered the prediction markets by signing an agreement with online casino company High Roller Technologies. This move allows Crypto.com to launch an "event-based prediction markets offering" for US users, utilizing CDNA, a CFTC-registered exchange. This strategic entry aims to challenge established platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket in what is projected to be a $1 trillion market by 2030. High Roller's stock price surged following the announcement. Analysts at Bernstein predict a shift in prediction markets from sports bets to economics, business, and political contracts, with increased institutional and corporate hedging demand.
