How it settles

Crypto and bitcoin markets on PredictIt.

On PredictIt, a crypto and bitcoin market is a contract on a clearly defined question that settles against a written rule, the named source and date set before trading. A correct side pays one dollar and the other pays nothing, so the price between 1 and 99 cents reads as the implied probability.

Operates under a CFTC no-action posture that has been contested over time, so standing is conditional.

Always read the specific market's resolution rule, not the headline. Fees and spreads reduce real returns, and availability can change.

FAQ

Questions readers keep asking.

Does PredictIt offer crypto and bitcoin markets?

No. PredictIt has run as a United States politics exchange under a Commodity Futures Trading Commission no action framework, and it has not listed crypto or bitcoin price markets. It has signaled plans to expand, but a live crypto market was not part of its offering as of June 2026. This is general information, not advice.

What does PredictIt actually offer instead?

PredictIt has focused on United States politics, with yes or no contracts on elections, nominations, control of a chamber, and policy outcomes, priced so the price reads as an implied probability. As of June 2026.

Where can I trade crypto and bitcoin markets instead?

Crypto event contracts, such as whether bitcoin closes above a stated level by a date, are offered by other regulated venues that are genuinely available to many United States readers. Read the crypto category guide for the mechanics, then use the legality hub to see which venues are available to you. As of June 2026.

Is PredictIt regulated?

PredictIt has operated under a Commodity Futures Trading Commission no action framework rather than as a designated contract market, and its standing was litigated, with a 2025 court outcome reinforcing its position and easing some prior caps. That covers its politics markets, not crypto. As of June 2026.

Where can I learn more about crypto markets generally?

See the crypto and bitcoin category guide for how these markets work across platforms, and the legality hub for where each platform is available to you.
