Coinbase launched live crypto price prediction markets on October 6, 2026, allowing US users to bet on whether Bitcoin, Ether, Solana and BNB will rise or fall in timeframes as short as 15 minutes. Binary contracts pay $1 if the prediction is correct and $0 if wrong, with prices reflecting crowd-implied probabilities. The product is offered through Coinbase Financial Markets, a CFTC and NFA member, and positions can be funded with either USD or USDC. This launch follows Coinbase’s initial December 2025 rollout of Kalshi-powered prediction markets covering sports and politics, which expanded nationwide by late January 2026. The markets are not available in all US states, including Nevada.
