As of January 2026, a New York resident cannot trade Crypto.com event contracts. Crypto.com lists its prediction markets app as available across most United States states but excludes New York. The contracts themselves clear through a federally registered exchange, CDNA, yet the consumer product is simply not opened to New York residents, which is the practical answer for anyone in the state.
A separate brand, OG Prediction Markets, runs under the same exchange umbrella as Crypto.com and launched in New York on 13 June 2026. It is a different product from the Crypto.com Sports and Events app this page covers, so access to one does not mean access to the other. New York is also part of the live federal and state friction over prediction markets, so the position can move. Confirm the current rules before you act.
Crypto.com offers prediction trading through North American Derivatives Exchange, branded Crypto.com Derivatives North America or CDNA, a designated contract market and clearinghouse registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Federal registration is what lets the product reach residents of most states without a separate state licence. It does not force a platform to serve every state, and Crypto.com has chosen not to offer the app to New York residents as of January 2026.
Reporting through the first half of 2026 describes the Crypto.com prediction markets app as available across most of the country while listing New York as an exclusion, alongside additional product limits in some other states. New York applies strict gambling and financial rules and has been drawn into the broader regulatory friction around prediction markets, including federal court action, which is the practical backdrop to why the product is not opened to residents there.
The point of confusion is the OG Prediction Markets brand. It sits under the same exchange umbrella and launched in New York in June 2026 with a high profile marketing push. Because the names overlap, a New York reader may assume the Crypto.com app is available too. It is not, as of January 2026, and the two are separate products. Treat this page as covering the Crypto.com Sports and Events app specifically, and verify any OG Prediction Markets access on its own terms.
Because this is an evolving area, a status here is a dated snapshot. If you are in New York and want to use a regulated venue today, the list below sets out United States regulated platforms that do serve New York residents, subject to age and identity checks.
Crypto.com is not listed here because it does not serve New York residents, and we do not point readers to a platform they cannot use. Availability is indicative and individual platforms may restrict specific products. Scores are illustrative editorial examples. Confirm the current position before acting.
As of January 2026, Crypto.com's own prediction markets app excludes New York residents, who cannot trade its event contracts even though the app is available in most other states. So while the contracts route through a federally registered exchange, the Crypto.com product is not open to a New York resident. The position is also evolving, with active federal and state disputes over prediction markets in New York. This is general information, not legal advice.

OG Prediction Markets is a separate brand that operates under the same corporate umbrella as Crypto.com's derivatives exchange, North American Derivatives Exchange, also branded CDNA. OG Prediction Markets launched in New York on 13 June 2026. It is a distinct product from the Crypto.com Sports and Events app this page covers, so do not assume access to one means access to the other.
The event contracts are listed and cleared by North American Derivatives Exchange, branded Crypto.com Derivatives North America or CDNA, a designated contract market and clearinghouse registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The trading sits inside the Crypto.com app, but the contracts are the federally registered CDNA product.
