Web3 wallets usually stick to one job: holding your crypto. Trust Wallet just said “forget that” and launched something nobody saw coming.
The company integrated prediction markets directly into its wallet. Now 220 million users can bet on real-world events without downloading another app or leaving their wallet interface. That’s a big deal for an emerging market that’s been stuck in complexity.
Myriad Goes First, Others Follow
Trust Wallet partnered with Myriad as its first prediction platform. The integration lives inside the Swaps page, where users already trade tokens.
So what can you actually bet on? Elections, token launches, sports outcomes, and other real-world events. All the markets Myriad offers now appear in Trust Wallet’s interface.
Plus, more platforms are coming. Polymarket and Kalshi integrations launch soon. That means users get access to multiple prediction markets from one place instead of juggling different apps.
Why This Matters for Regular Users
Prediction markets hit $100 million in trading volume recently. But accessing them remained clunky. You needed separate accounts, different interfaces, and multiple wallets.
Trust Wallet killed that friction. Now you can explore markets, place predictions, and manage everything using assets already in your wallet. One-click access changes the game for casual traders.
“People shouldn’t need five apps to express what they think will happen next,” said Eowyn Chen, Trust Wallet’s CEO. She’s right. Fragmentation keeps people away from these markets.
Myriad’s Growth Shows Real Demand
Myriad just crossed $100 million in trading volume. That’s 10x growth in three months. Clearly, people want to trade on real-world outcomes.
“Trust Wallet is where tens of millions of people begin and manage their crypto experience,” said Farokh Sarmad, Myriad’s President. Integrating prediction markets into that flow makes sense.
Instead of forcing users to discover Myriad separately, Trust Wallet brings it to them. That’s smart distribution strategy.
Wallets Evolve Beyond Storage
Trust Wallet isn’t just a place to store crypto anymore. The company added perpetual futures, meme coin trading, and NFT management. Now prediction markets join that list.
This shift makes wallets more like trading hubs. You hold assets, trade tokens, buy NFTs, and bet on events without switching apps. Everything happens in one interface.
For Trust Wallet, this move positions them ahead of competitors. No other major wallet offers native prediction market access yet.
Markets Cover More Than Crypto
Prediction markets aren’t limited to crypto events. Users can trade outcomes for politics, sports, entertainment, and business news.
That broader scope attracts different audiences. Sports fans don’t care about token launches. Political junkies skip sports markets. But both groups might use Trust Wallet now.
By aggregating multiple platforms, Trust Wallet creates a one-stop shop for diverse prediction markets. That variety matters for growth.
What’s Coming Next
Polymarket integration launches soon. So does Kalshi. Both platforms bring different markets and liquidity pools.
More importantly, Trust Wallet plans to add additional platforms over time. The goal is comprehensive coverage of major prediction markets.
This strategy gives users choice without complexity. Browse markets from different platforms in one unified interface. Place predictions using your existing wallet balance. Track everything from a single dashboard.
Real Competition Starts Now
Other wallets will notice this move. Trust Wallet just created a new category: wallets with native prediction market access.
Competitors face a choice. Either integrate prediction markets themselves or watch users switch to Trust Wallet for this feature. That competitive pressure benefits users.
We’ll see more wallets add similar features in 2025. Trust Wallet simply got there first.
The Bigger Picture
Prediction markets represent information trading. People bet on outcomes, creating crowd-sourced forecasts. Those forecasts often beat traditional polls and expert predictions.
By making prediction markets accessible to millions, Trust Wallet helps this information flow. More participants mean better price discovery and more accurate predictions.
That’s valuable beyond trading. Businesses, researchers, and decision-makers use prediction market data. Trust Wallet just expanded the data pool significantly.
Bottom Line
Trust Wallet turned prediction markets from a niche crypto activity into a mainstream feature. That’s not revolutionary. But it’s smart product strategy.
Most people won’t download a separate app for prediction markets. But they might try it if their wallet offers the feature. That’s the bet Trust Wallet made.
Given Myriad’s recent growth and the simplicity of this integration, that bet looks solid. Now we watch to see if other wallets follow.
