Myriad and Trust Wallet Partner to Expand Prediction Markets to BNB Chain

Myriad's prediction markets just got a major distribution boost—and a new home on BNB Chain.

The Trust Wallet Integration

This isn't just another listing. The partnership with Trust Wallet, one of the most widely used self-custody wallets in crypto, throws open the doors to millions of active users. Suddenly, betting on real-world outcomes isn't confined to niche platforms; it's in your pocket, a few taps away from your existing DeFi stack.

Why BNB Chain?

The move to BNB Chain is a calculated play for scale and accessibility. It's a network built for high throughput and low fees—critical infrastructure for prediction markets where small, frequent bets are the norm. Myriad is bypassing the congestion and cost barriers that have historically kept these markets on the sidelines, positioning them squarely in the mainstream crypto flow.

The New Playing Field

Forget clunky, standalone platforms. This integration embeds prediction markets directly into the user's financial interface. It turns speculative insight into a seamless, on-chain action. Want to stake on an election, a product launch, or a weather event? The mechanism is now as familiar as swapping tokens—democratizing access in a way that traditional, gatekept financial markets never could.

The partnership signals a quiet convergence: decentralized finance absorbing the age-old human desire to forecast and wager. It's a potent mix of utility and speculation, wrapped in the sleek UX of a trusted wallet. Just don't call it gambling—call it portfolio diversification with a side of cynical commentary on world events. After all, what's finance if not a prediction market where the suits pretend they're not placing bets?

Myriad breaks above $100M in trading volume

Prediction markets became more diverse in the past few months, challenging the leading positions of Kalshi and Polymarket. Recently, Myriad broke above $100M in cumulative trading volume, with a 10X increase over the past three months. 

Myriad already carries over 400K active traders, with 6.3M trades and growing transaction volume. The market already taps the highly active BNB Chain, potentially reaching millions of users. 

Prediction markets have remained a lively part of Web3 activity after the slowdown in NFTs, memes, and other projects. 

“Trust Wallet is where tens of millions of people begin and manage their crypto experience, so bringing Myriad directly into that flow makes on-chain predictions accessible in a way the industry has never seen before. We are honoured to partner and to move this industry forward together,” said Farokh Sarmad, President and co-founder of Myriad.

Wallets are becoming the homes for multiple types of trading – not just tokens, but information, opinions, and expectations, added Eowyn Chen, CEO of Trust Wallet. 

Prediction markets aim for mass adoption

Until recently, prediction markets were a niche activity, producing legendary stories of prescient combining low-stakes predictions, entertainment, viral stories, and trading. After the rise of Polymarket in November 2024, prediction space had to find new sustainable sources of activity. 

There was enough user interest to boost both the first movers and the wave of newly launched prediction platforms. Wallet and social media integrations have allowed platforms to reach a wider user base. 

As Cryptopolitan reported earlier, prediction markets are more active in recruiting new users and growing their mindshare. The coming year will bring the Kalshi and Polymarket IPOs, further boosting mainstream adoption. 

Predictions are also spreading through multiple channels, including official brokerages. However, crypto-native activity remains important, as it gives the most direct access and immediate on-chain settlement.
