Coinbase Closes Hasson vs Pikkaart Prediction Market

Coinbase has introduced a new prediction market titled "Hasson vs Pikkaart," allowing users to trade contracts on the outcome of this event. The market, which closed on October 6, 2026, had a total interest of $23,796.00 and a final total of $26K. The market was set to expire by October 6, 2026, 8:22 AM GMT+0, or earlier if an outcome was determined.

The market operated under strict trading prohibitions to ensure fairness. These restrictions included barring current players, coaches, staff, paid employees, team owners, and anyone with material, non-public information from trading. The goal was to prevent insider trading and maintain the integrity of the market.

Prediction markets on Coinbase allow users to trade regulated "Yes/No" contracts on various future events, including crypto, economics, politics, sports, entertainment, technology, and science. Each contract pays $1 if the event happens and $0 if it does not. The price reflects the market’s odds, with the settlement based on an independent, regulated exchange using a stated "source of truth."

To participate, users need a Coinbase account and must complete onboarding to Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM), including identity verification and basic income/net worth details. Trading fees vary by market and are shown in the trade preview before placing an order. Payouts occur after settlement, though delays may happen on U.S. bank holidays, weekends, or outside banking hours.
