Coinbase, in collaboration with Kalshi, has introduced prediction markets across all 50 U.S. states, allowing users to trade on real-world events.
Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange by assets, launched prediction markets across all 50 U.S. states in partnership with Kalshi, offering users the ability to trade on outcomes of real-world events in sports, politics, and culture, the company announced on X.
Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, highlighted the potential of prediction markets as essential tools for truth-seeking.
He stated, “When there’s skin in the game, the output is far more reliable. Everything else is biased by someone’s agenda. I think we’ll look back at prediction markets as a breakthrough in how we discover truth in the world.”
These markets allow users to trade on the predicted outcomes of various events, with prices determined by market participants.
The collaboration with Kalshi, a platform regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), ensures that these markets are compliant with federal regulations.
Coinbase’s expansion into prediction markets aligns with its strategy to become an “everything exchange,” integrating services beyond crypto trading.
