Trust Wallet Unveils Native Prediction Markets for 200M Users

Published at 2025-12-02 18:45:13

Trust Wallet rolled out a built-in prediction markets feature on December 2, enabling users to create and trade outcome-based contracts directly inside the mobile app. The initial launch integrates Myriad on BNB Chain, letting users place bets on real-world events without leaving their self-custodial wallet and tapping on-chain liquidity.

The team says support for Polymarket and Kalshi will follow, a move that could broaden market types and liquidity across U.S. and crypto-native markets. Bringing prediction markets to a widely used wallet lowers onboarding friction and could boost retail participation, though it also raises potential regulatory and moderation questions as event-based trading scales within mainstream crypto apps.
