Are we betting that this will work? Predictive markets are the new trend in the crypto industry. They allow betting on future events, whether in sports, politics, or weather, and after Polymarket and Kalshi, it is now the turn of the giant Gemini to enter these markets.

The key points of this article:

  • Gemini has obtained a DCM license from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to enter the predictive markets.

  • Predictive markets are becoming a major trend in the crypto industry with many players like Trust Wallet, Coinbase, and Robinhood joining this sector.

Gemini is entering predictive markets

In December 2024, the exchange platform Gemini filed a request with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) for a DCM (Designated Contract Market) license.

A year later, on December 10, 2025, Gemini announced that it had obtained the valuable license. Thus, Gemini Titan, a subsidiary of the company, will be able to offer predictive markets to its American users "in the near future":

"Today, we are excited to announce that Gemini Titan has received approval from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to operate as a designated contract market (DCM)."

A very strong trend in Web3

With this new offering, Gemini thus joins the trend of predictive markets with many crypto platforms that have recently added this type of market to their offerings.

On December 3, Trust Wallet announced the launch of its own predictive markets platform, while Coinbase and Robinhood have also positioned themselves in this type of market.

In addition to historical players in crypto entering predictive markets, specialized platforms in this area like Polymarket or Kalshi are experiencing significant success. The latter recently raised 1 billion dollars in a funding round.

Finally, we learned last October that Crypto.com would launch a platform of this kind in collaboration with the Trump clan company, and it would be called Truth Predict. If so many companies are entering this niche, it must be that the profit predictions are interesting!
