Prediction markets are expanding into financial asset territory, and analysts at Bernstein predict significant growth in trading volumes. By 2035, they forecast annual trading volumes to surge from $410B in 2026 to a staggering $10T.

This prediction comes as the firm's analysts expect financial assets, including #crypto, equities, and commodities, to grow from roughly 12% of volumes in 2025 to 49% by 2035. The analysts see this shift overtaking sports as the largest category, with sports' share projected to fall from 61% to 38% over the same period.

The growth is expected to compound at approximately 70% annually between 2025 and 2035, according to Bernstein's forecast.
