Jane Manchun Wong is known for uncovering unreleased features from major tech companies before they are announced. She recently hinted at discovering Coinbase’s next big offering, a prediction markets platform backed by Kalshi. Prediction markets like Polymarket have seen huge growth, with billions in trading volume and millions of users.
Wong shared screenshots of a fully designed Coinbase prediction market website. The platform would be offered through Coinbase Financial Markets via Kalshi, allowing funding in U.S. dollars or USDC. This move would position Coinbase against competitors like Polymarket and Kalshi, with the necessary regulatory approvals already in place.
Polymarket recently widened its user testing in the U.S. after regulatory hurdles were cleared. With the Commodity Futures Trading Commission approving key filings, Polymarket is gearing up for a full U.S. rollout. These developments align with Coinbase’s goal of becoming an “everything exchange” offering a wide range of trading options under one roof.
