What crypto events can I trade on prediction markets?

You can trade on Bitcoin and Ethereum price milestones (e.g., "Will BTC hit $150K by year-end?"), protocol upgrades, regulatory decisions like ETF approvals, DeFi TVL targets, stablecoin events, and adoption metrics. Polymarket, Kalshi, and Limitless all list active crypto markets.

How do crypto prediction markets work?

Crypto prediction markets allow you to buy shares that pay out $1 if an event occurs. If a share trades at $0.65, the market assigns a 65% probability to that outcome. On Polymarket, trading happens in USDC on the Polygon blockchain. Kalshi uses US dollars on a regulated exchange. Limitless operates on Base with zero fees.

Can prediction markets predict crypto prices?

Prediction markets aggregate information from many traders and provide a real-time probability estimate. While no market is perfect, prediction market prices reflect the collective best guess weighted by money at stake, which can complement technical and fundamental analysis.
