Trump Media and Crypto.com to Launch ‘Truth Predict’ Markets Inside Truth Social

Trades will route through Crypto.com’s CFTC‑registered U.S. derivatives arm, with a domestic beta expected soon before broader expansion pending approvals.

Overview

  • Truth Predict will embed real-time prediction contracts in the app on topics including U.S. elections, Federal Reserve decisions, sports results and commodity prices.
  • Event contracts are set to execute and clear via Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA), which is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
  • Users can convert in‑app engagement rewards called Truth gems into Crypto.com’s Cronos (CRO) token for use on the contracts.
  • The companies say U.S. beta testing will begin soon, followed by a full domestic rollout and later international availability subject to regulatory clearances.
  • The move positions Truth Social against Polymarket and Kalshi, and coverage highlights conflict‑of‑interest concerns given the Trump family’s ties to crypto and prediction‑market firms.
