The sports-driven activity was particularly evident on Polymarket, where sports-related contracts accounted for 81% of trading volume in June, as opposed to 40% in January.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this increase in sports trading, Polymarket\u2019s market share declined quarter-over-quarter from 35.8% to 30.2%. On the other hand, Kalshi has managed to expand its lead after increasing its share from 42.4% in the first quarter to almost 58.9% in the second.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Rothera, the Robinhood\/Susquehanna International Group joint venture launched in May, quickly climbed to fourth place in June with $2.1 billion in notional volume.<\/p>\n<h2>Wall Street and Big Tech Into the Race<\/h2>\n<p>Prediction markets gained momentum. Last month, Cboe Global Markets <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/cboe-launches-prediction-markets-with-sp-500-binary-contracts\/\">launched<\/a> Cboe Predicts, its new prediction markets platform featuring securities-based binary option contracts tied to the Mini-S&amp;P 500 Index. The contracts, trading under the symbols XSPBW and XSPBX, are already available through Interactive Brokers, while Charles Schwab is expected to add access in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Cboe also said more brokerage firms are likely to support the products over time. The contracts allow traders to take a \u201cyes\u201d or \u201cno\u201d position on whether the Mini-S&amp;P 500 Index will settle at or above a specified level at expiration.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the New York Times <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/meta-bets-on-prediction-markets-as-it-hunts-for-next-growth-engine-report\/\">meldt<\/a> that Meta is developing a standalone prediction markets app called Arena, where users would predict real-world outcomes using points instead of real money. According to the report, the experimental project is a top priority for CEO Mark Zuckerberg and could eventually expand to real-money betting. The initiative follows Meta\u2019s earlier Forecast app, a points-based prediction platform launched in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic before being discontinued in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>De post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/sports-events-push-prediction-market-trading-to-record-highs-in-june\/\">Sports Events Push Prediction Market Trading to Record Highs in June<\/a> verscheen eerst op <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Notional volume on prediction markets climbed sharply in the second quarter of 2026 and reached $113.8 billion, up 48.7% from the previous quarter.
