Gemini Titan Becomes Exclusive Venue for Apex's Crypto Prediction Markets
Gemini, a leading cryptocurrency exchange and custodian, has partnered with Apex Fintech Solutions to offer regulated crypto prediction markets. The partnership makes Gemini's subsidiary, Gemini Titan, the exclusive venue for Apex's brokerage clients to access these markets.
The deal allows Apex's brokerages to send execution and clearing to Gemini, which anchors the crypto lane exclusively to Gemini Titan. This partnership is part of Gemini's efforts to expand its regulated event-based trading platform nationwide in the US. The company has secured CFTC approval for this platform, which includes a feature that generates personalized event feeds and market signals across various markets.
The prediction market remains one of blockchain's growing sectors, with weekly trading volume ranging between $10.4 billion and $11.2 billion, according to data from Artemis. This partnership extends Gemini's run of product and regulatory progress, including its subsidiary Gemini Olympus obtaining a CFTC Derivatives Clearing Organization license in April.
Tyler Winklevoss, CEO of Gemini, views predictions as the future of markets and has chosen to build its predictions platform internally. He believes this approach allows the firm to widen its offering and open access to partners like Apex as demand for event contracts grows.
