Robinhood Predicts Ethereum Price Range for October 2026

On Robinhood's Crypto Prediction Market, traders are speculating about the price of Ethereum (ETH) exactly five years from now. According to the platform, the predicted price range for ETH on October 5, 2026, at 9 am EDT is between $2,710 and $2,734.996. The prediction is based on CF Benchmarks' Real Time Index (RTI), which collects 60 price points in the final minute before expiration and averages them to determine the official value.

The prediction market offers contracts that resolve based on the outcome of ETH's price at the specified date and time. If a trader's prediction is correct, they receive $1 for every contract they own. Alternatively, traders can close their positions before the event resolves, though additional fees may apply.

Robinhood emphasizes that not all cryptocurrency price data is the same. While sources like Google or Coinbase may provide useful insights, the price used to determine this market is specifically based on CF Benchmarks' RTI. The platform also outlines trading prohibitions, noting that persons employed by any of the source agencies or those holding material, non-public information are not permitted to trade on the contract.

The event contracts are offered by Robinhood Derivatives, LLC through various exchanges, including KalshiEX LLC and North American Derivatives Exchange, Inc. The platform reminds users that trading involves significant risk and is not appropriate for everyone, and that live data is for informational purposes only and may be delayed or incorrect.
