Sports prediction markets are now stepping into the mainstream. Underdog has teamed up with Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA) to bring federally compliant prediction markets directly into the Underdog app. For the first time, fans can make real-time predictions on their favorite leagues, from NFL and NBA to MLB, all in one place.
Customers can now access CDNA sports event contracts through the Underdog app, giving them a legal and regulated way to predict game outcomes. The integration allows trading on major leagues like NFL, college football, NBA, and MLB. Real-time pricing means fans can adjust their predictions as games unfold.
Underdog’s CEO Jeremy Levine said, “The future of prediction markets is going to be about sports and no one does sports better than Underdog.” His comment underlined the company’s ambition to fuse betting, fantasy, and prediction products under one roof. This launch positions Underdog as the only operator offering fantasy, sportsbook, and prediction markets in a single app.
Crypto.com’s CDNA platform is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, ensuring compliance with U.S. federal regulations. Its partnership with Underdog expands reach to a wider U.S. audience. Travis McGhee of Crypto.com said the collaboration will give customers “more access to CDNA’s innovative offerings.”
The sports prediction markets will run on Underdog’s proprietary technology. This ensures the same infrastructure that powers its fantasy and sportsbook operations now supports prediction contracts. The unified platform aims to simplify user experience and reduce friction across products.
Underdog holds gaming licenses across several states and emphasizes its responsible gaming framework. The company said customer protection tools are fully embedded into the prediction markets feature. Protections include spending controls, compliance safeguards, and player support systems.
