PROSPECT MARKETS GOES LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES, COMMENCING COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS ON ITS SPORTS-NATIVE PREDICTION MARKETS PLATFORM

Prospect Prediction Markets Inc.'s sports-native prediction market platform is now live in the United States. Starting today, eligible U.S. customers can open an account, finance it and trade event contracts, marking the company's transition from build to commercial operations. The launch arrives in the heart of the fall sports calendar, with the NFL and college football seasons in full swing and the NBA, college basketball and NHL seasons under way.

"Today, Prospect is live," said Johnny Chen, founder and chief executive officer of Prospect Markets. "Our mission from day one has been to make every sports moment tradable, and, starting today, eligible sports fans across the United States can do exactly that, on a platform built for the way they actually watch. We've built more than a transactional interface: We've built intelligence and context around every trade, bringing the tools traders know from equities and options to sports. With the launch behind us, our focus turns to scale: growing our user base, expanding our markets and establishing Prospect as the sports-native platform in prediction markets."

Built natively for sports

General-purpose prediction platforms treat sports as one category among many. Prospect is built natively for sports from the ground up, with every element of the platform designed around how fans actually follow live sports.

At the core of the experience is a data-rich, second-screen interface that puts real-time information, context and markets in front of fans as the action unfolds. Prospect turns every sports moment from the opening whistle to the final result into a live, tradable market.

From the world's largest leagues to the niche competitions that mainstream platforms overlook, Prospect is built to serve passionate fan communities across the full breadth of sport.

Launching into record demand

Prospect enters the U.S. market as prediction markets set new records. U.S. prediction market volume reached $120.73-billion in October, 2026, up 64.1 per cent from $73.58-billion in September, according to DeFi Rate's analysis of trading activity across eight exchanges. Combined monthly trading volume on the sector's two largest platforms more than doubled between May and July, 2026, driven largely by sports, and sports trading volume on those platforms in the first quarter of 2026 was roughly on par with the approximately $40-billion (U.S.) wagered at legal U.S. sports books over the same period.
