Under the new arrangement, users will begin seeing contracts sourced from both **[CME Group](https://coinlaw.io/cme-group-statistics/)** and **OG Prediction Markets**. FanDuel said the addition will increase the variety of sports and entertainment markets available on the platform while enhancing the overall customer experience. James Cooper, Senior Vice President, Flywheel and New Ventures at FanDuel, said: “ FanDuel Predicts was built to deliver a best-in-class prediction market experience to our customers. These additional product sets give our customers more choices by expanding the breadth of sports and entertainment contracts on our platform. James CooperSenior Vice President, Flywheel and New Ventures – FanDuel FanDuel Predicts operates through FanDuel Prediction Markets, a joint venture between FanDuel Group and CME Group. The contracts available on the platform are listed by CME Group and [Crypto.com derivatives exchanges](https://coinlaw.io/crypto-com-statistics/) and are regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. ## Crypto.com Sees Opportunity in Mainstream Prediction Markets For Crypto.com, the partnership represents another step in expanding the use of its regulated derivatives infrastructure beyond traditional cryptocurrency products. The company’s OG Prediction Markets platform offers contracts across multiple categories including cryptocurrency, economics, companies, culture, climate, and sports related events. Joe Anzures, Chief Business Officer of Crypto.com, said: “ We are thrilled to partner with FanDuel Predicts to bring a new level of depth and experience to its prediction markets experience. By leveraging our robust, regulated exchange and clearinghouse infrastructure, we are enabling a mainstream prediction markets experience just in time for the World Cup underscoring our capability to deliver scalable, regulated derivatives infrastructure for the world’s biggest moments. Joe AnzuresChief Business Officer – Crypto.com The timing is notable as FanDuel prepares to offer the expanded contracts during the World Cup period, one of the largest global sporting events that typically generates significant consumer engagement. ## Expansion Comes After a Slower Start The announcement also arrives as FanDuel looks to accelerate growth in its prediction market business. [FanDuel launched its prediction market](https://coinlaw.io/fanduel-cme-launch-prediction-markets-app/) product in December using contracts provided by CME Group. However, industry data cited by market observers suggests the platform has trailed some competitors in trading activity. Before the Crypto.com agreement, **FanDuel relied exclusively on CME listed contracts**. Meanwhile, rival [DraftKings](https://coinlaw.io/draftkings-cftc-predictions-app-launch/) had already integrated contracts from both CME Group and Crypto.com, helping it build a broader marketplace. According to figures disclosed by DraftKings, the company reported annualized prediction market volume of approximately **$3.1 billion** in May. That translates to roughly **$8.5 million** in daily volume, highlighting the growing competition among regulated prediction market providers. By adding Crypto.com’s contract offerings, FanDuel is positioning itself to attract more users seeking a wider variety of event based markets and trading opportunities. ## Growing Competition in Regulated Prediction Markets The partnership highlights the continued evolution of [regulated prediction markets](https://coinlaw.io/how-prediction-markets-work/) in the United States. Companies are increasingly looking to blend financial market structures with sports and entertainment forecasting products while operating within established regulatory frameworks. As more operators enter the space and expand available contracts, prediction markets are becoming a larger part of the broader online gaming and trading landscape. FanDuel’s latest move suggests the company sees substantial long term potential in the category and is willing to broaden its offerings to remain competitive. ## CoinLaw’s Takeaway In my experience, the most important detail in this announcement is not just the addition of new contracts but the strategic shift behind it. FanDuel appears to recognize that a limited contract catalog can slow user adoption in prediction markets. I found that partnering with Crypto.com immediately gives FanDuel access to a deeper inventory of sports and entertainment markets while helping it compete more effectively with rivals that have already embraced a multi exchange approach. If prediction markets continue gaining regulatory acceptance, this partnership could become an important step in FanDuel’s long term growth strategy.
