Gemini Beats Coinbase To Market As Prediction Markets Turn Into Wall Street’s Next Trading Battleground

In November, researcher Jane Manchun Wong shared what appeared to be screenshots of a Coinbase prediction&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/wongmjane/status/1990905018602705093?s=20">markets dashboard on X</a>.&nbsp;The company could also unveil a tokenized stock offering at the Dec. 17 event, according to a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-11/coinbase-ready-to-launch-prediction-markets-tokenized-stocks">report</a> by Bloomberg.<h2 class="st-heading-2">‘Everything Exchange’ Push</h2>The reported launch aligns with Coinbase’s broader ambition to become an “everything exchange,” offering access to crypto assets, tokenized stocks and event-based contracts on a single platform. CEO Brian Armstrong told investors in May that Coinbase aims to grow into a leading financial services app over the next decade, CNBC noted.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Rivals Expand Into Prediction Markets</h2>Coinbase’s expansion comes as competition intensifies from rivals such as Robinhood, Gemini and Kraken, which have rolled out tokenized equity products outside the U.S. and explored prediction markets.&nbsp;At the same time, the broader&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/polymarket-kalshi-prediction-markets-keep-draft-kings-flutter-on-high-alert/cLIXNrAREKH">prediction markets space has grown more crowded</a>, with platforms like Polymarket and Robinhood scaling rapidly across contracts linked to markets, politics and sports.The rise of event-based trading has also begun to pressure traditional sportsbooks.

The company already supplies prediction markets to Robinhood under a non-exclusive agreement and has held talks with other brokerages, including crypto firms, about similar deals.Kalshi’s profile has risen sharply in recent months.

Coinbase Set For Prediction Markets Reveal With Kalshi Next Week As Rivals Crowd The Space: Report

Coinbase declined to confirm the CNBC report but said it would provide updates at its Dec. 17 “Coinbase System Update” event.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Prediction market platforms Polymarket and Kalshi recently raised mega funding rounds and are aggressively expanding through sports wagers and partnerships.</li><li>Their rise has disrupted sportsbooks' businesses, with DraftKings and Flutter now planning their own foray into prediction markets.</li><li>Robinhood, which launched a prediction-market hub in March, has seen its stock rally sharply.&nbsp;</li></ul>Step back from the wall-to-wall AI buzz for a moment, and another fast-rising business trend comes into focus: prediction markets.Top platforms in the space – Polymarket, Kalshi, and Robinhood’s Prediction Markets Hub – have scaled aggressively this year. Their wagers on everything from markets to politics, sports, and culture are drawing massive interest from users across the United States, as well as from financial entities looking to use their prediction data in novel ways.<h1 class="st-heading-1">Incredible Growth</h1>Kalshi on Tuesday secured $1 billion at an $11 billion valuation, marking its third fundraise of the year and more than doubling its valuation in just a few months. The platform shot to prominence as users piled into contracts ahead of November 2024’s presidential election, which saw Donald Trump win, and has since aggressively expanded into sports betting.Polymarket bagged a $2 billion cheque from the New York Stock Exchange operator Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE) two months ago, at a pre-investment valuation of $8 billion. As part of the deal, ICE will also distribute Polymarket’s event-driven data, providing customers with sentiment indicators on market-relevant topics.And Robinhood? Its stock has been on an absolute tear — HOOD is up more than threefold this year — helped in part by its aggressive push into prediction markets. The company rolled out its prediction-market hub with Kalshi in March and, just last month, snapped up a 90% stake in MIAX Derivatives Exchange, a move that sent its shares sharply higher. &nbsp;<figure class="table" style="width:100%;"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;vertical-align:bottom;">Platform&nbsp;</td><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;vertical-align:bottom;">Primary Volume Driver in November 2025</td><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;vertical-align:bottom;">Broadly Popular Contracts (Last 6 Months)</td><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;vertical-align:bottom;">Key Metric/Note</td></tr><tr><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;">Kalshi</td><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;text-align:center;">Sports-related contracts (Pro Football, NHL, NBA, etc.)</td><td style="border:0.75pt solid #000000;padding:1pt 1pt 5pt;text-align:center;">Sports: NFL game outcomes and championships (dominant volume driver).

Flutter is building one through a partnership with CME Group, while DraftKings will launch one&nbsp;following its recent acquisition of Railbird Technologies.In recent interviews, DraftKings and Flutter management&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/draft-kings-stock-drops-premarket-on-lower-revenue-forecast-ceo-downplays-threat-from-prediction-markets/cL2vMQ9RETi">have said</a> that sportsbooks and prediction markets are two distinct offerings and, as such, would not cannibalize each other's user bases. To be sure, sportsbooks&nbsp;account for about half of their topline, with the rest coming mostly from iGaming (casino, poker, bingo, and lottery games, both online and on the apps).&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:2400/1400;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/koyfin_20251203_025149132_png_a50ca258de.webp" alt="koyfin_20251203_025149132.png" width="2400" height="1400"></figure>However, some recent products, like same-game parlays, strike right at the core of DraftKings’ and Flutter’s core sportbook offerings. What’s more, when Polymarket and Kalshi signed a major deal with the National Hockey League, the first major U.S. sports league to license its trademarks to prediction markets, DKNG and FLUT stocks did not take it kindly.In fact, recent results from both show weak sportsbook revenues, though that’s also due to customer-friendly results in this NFL season. Nevertheless, DraftKings tightened its annual forecast. Some analysts are&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/flutter-entertainment-faces-price-target-cuts-due-to-nfl-weakness/ch6Fdd1R3V2">concerned</a>, too. &nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1600/1133;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Draft_Kings_sportsbook_revenue_jpg_91c79b03cd.webp" alt="DraftKings_sportsbook_revenue.jpg" width="1600" height="1133"></figure>&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1600/1133;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Flutters_US_Sportsbook_revenue_jpg_c7cf47fadb.webp" alt="Flutters_US_Sportsbook_revenue.jpg" width="1600" height="1133"></figure><h1 class="st-heading-1">Wider Appeal</h1>Prediction-market platforms are forging partnerships at breakneck speed to broaden their appeal, and also offering everything from outlandish contracts on meteor strikes or nuclear detonations to more audience-friendly wagers on Oscar winners or&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/ai-might-beat-trump-the-pope-and-nvidia-s-ceo-to-become-time-s-2025-person-of-the-year-polymarket/cL5eFmXREhX">Time’s Person of the Year</a>.Historically, platforms like Kalshi were focused on politics, macroeconomic events, weather, and other “non-sports” outcomes.
