Crypto.com has announced an exclusive partnership with Hollywood.com to launch a new prediction market platform focused on entertainment events. The collaboration, revealed on November 3, 2025, will offer prediction contracts on movies, Broadway shows, television programs, major award shows, and musical artists, powered by Crypto.com's regulated Derivatives North America platform.
The prediction market will be hosted on Hollywood.com, featuring real-time price updates and allowing users to trade on their opinions of future entertainment outcomes. Crypto.com Derivatives North America is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), ensuring a compliant framework. This move taps into the growing prediction market ecosystem, which includes players like Polymarket and Kalshi, the latter recently securing $300 million in Series D funding at a $5 billion valuation and claiming a 60% market share.
Mitchell Rubenstein, co-CEO of Hollywood.com, stated, "The success of prediction markets demonstrates the massive appetite for trading on the outcome of future events—and now Hollywood.com is bringing that innovation to entertainment's biggest stage." Travis McGhee, managing director and global head of capital markets at Crypto.com, added, "Entertainment fans are some of the most passionate consumers, and we look forward to providing them a new, legal prediction market specifically tailored to them through a trusted platform."
This initiative follows Crypto.com's recent regulatory milestones, including approvals for margined derivatives trading and a National Trust Bank Charter application with the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. In October, Crypto.com also partnered with Trump Media & Technology Group for a similar prediction market venture, highlighting the exchange's expanding footprint in this sector.
