Betting on the Future: Gemini’s New Frontier Blends Crypto with Prediction Markets

Gemini is venturing beyond traditional crypto trading into the world of speculative forecasting. The Winklevoss-founded exchange is preparing to launch prediction market contracts, a burgeoning sector that merges finance with collective intelligence on future events.

According to Bloomberg, the plan is moving forward with a new derivatives platform currently under regulatory review. This platform would allow Gemini to offer event contracts, turning economic, political, and sports forecasts into tradeable assets.

This push comes as prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket see unprecedented volume, signaling a cultural and financial shift. With the CFTC now showing openness to these innovative markets, Gemini’s entry could help bring this niche from the crypto fringe to the financial mainstream.
