Plaee partners with Crypto.com on CFTC prediction market

Plaee is partnering with Crypto.com's Derivatives North America unit to provide prediction market technology infrastructure compliant with Commodity Futures Trading Commission rules in the United States.

The company, in an announcement, said the collaboration makes Plaee’s platform available now in the United States and enables onboarding and service of operators, fintech platforms and traditional trading brokers with federally regulated event-based trading at scale.

The firms said the integration natively incorporates Crypto.com’s institutional liquidity and regulatory framework into Plaee’s high-performance CRM and retention engines.

The post notes the sector is moving toward a projected $1 trillion in trading volume and describes a plug-and-play, API-first architecture that supports markets spanning sports, politics and macroeconomics, enabling deployment within weeks.

“By partnering with Crypto.com, we are removing the three biggest hurdles for operators: regulatory complexity, liquidity, and time-to-market,” Leon Okun, CEO of Plaee, said.
