Robinhood Launches BTC Price Prediction Contract for September 2026

Rising demand for Bitcoin (BTC) predictions has led to the launch of a new contract on Robinhood, allowing users to bet on the cryptocurrency's price at a specific date and time. On September 24, 2026, at 7am EDT, participants can buy or sell contracts with varying prices and payouts based on the outcome.

The contract uses CF Benchmarks' Real Time Index (RTI) to determine the official and final value of Bitcoin's price. This index collects 60 RTI prices at the last minute before expiration, making it a reliable measure for determining the market value. The payout is typically within an hour of event resolution.

Robinhood's contract has sparked interest among traders, with users able to get $1 for every contract they own if their prediction is correct. However, trading prohibitions apply to those employed by certain agencies or holding material non-public information on the underlying asset. Live data may be delayed or incorrect.
