Trading Technologies (TT) announced on August 18, 2026, that it will integrate its institutional trading platform with OG.com, Crypto.com’s CFTC-regulated derivatives venue, with connectivity expected to go live in the fourth quarter of 2026. The technical deployment will allow institutional clients to trade prediction-market event contracts and a new line of margin-based cryptocurrency futures through the same interface used for listed futures and options.
OG.com is the customer-facing brand of North American Derivatives Exchange, which operates as a Designated Contract Market and Derivatives Clearing Organization under CFTC oversight. The venue was originally HedgeStreet, later became Nadex under IG Group, and was acquired by Crypto.com parent Foris DAX Markets in March 2022. In September 2025, the CFTC amended its designation to allow the exchange to offer margined futures cleared through registered futures commission merchants, establishing the regulatory foundation for the crypto futures referenced in the TT announcement.
Steve Humenik, Chief Legal Officer of OG.com and Executive Vice President of Crypto.com, said: “As regulated prediction markets and digital asset derivatives continue to mature, providing institutional participants with secure, compliant and seamless access is paramount. Partnering with Trading Technologies allows us to effectively bring OG.com’s innovative prediction markets products directly into the workflows of the world’s leading market participants.”
Alun Green, Managing Director of Futures and Options at Trading Technologies, said institutional clients have shown growing demand for regulated prediction and digital-asset markets. TT will provide execution and algorithmic trading tools, transaction cost analysis, market surveillance software, clearing, and margin-optimization functions. The announcement follows TT’s June plan to connect to Kalshi first in Q3 2026, making OG.com its second announced prediction-market venue and turning prediction markets into a multi-venue product category on TT.
Crypto.com launched the standalone OG experience in February after reporting a fortyfold increase in weekly prediction-market activity over the preceding six months. OG.com lists contracts covering sports, financial markets, companies, economics, climate and culture. The Q4 rollout still depends on production connectivity, broker and clearing support, permissions, risk controls, contract data and settlement procedures. Neither company disclosed crypto futures specifications, initial margin requirements or the first clearing firms that will support access.
The integration may improve capital efficiency for professional traders because margined futures require only a portion of notional exposure rather than fully collateralized event contracts, but it also introduces leverage, variation-margin calls and liquidation risk. The announcement establishes institutional access and venue choice, while substantive evidence on liquidity and adoption will only emerge after launch.
