BitMart US, a regulated digital asset platform operating across all 50 U.S. states, has entered the prediction markets space through a partnership with Plaee, a provider of infrastructure for event-based contracts. The expansion marks a shift in how crypto exchanges are approaching prediction markets, moving toward white-label infrastructure models rather than building standalone systems.
- Partnership Structure: BitMart US acts as distribution layer; Plaee provides infrastructure and trading technology
- White-Label Product: Prediction Trader trading interface with access to CFTC-regulated event contracts
- BitMart US Coverage: Regulated operations across all 50 U.S. states with crypto trading and fiat on- and off-ramp services
- Feature Focus: Products linked to short-term crypto price movements with liquidity support
Under the arrangement, Plaee will supply the underlying infrastructure, trading technology, and a white-label interface called Prediction Trader. The system provides access to CFTC-regulated event contracts alongside liquidity support for trading. Plaee CEO Leon Okun described the integration as designed for scale, giving BitMart US access to what he termed “the fastest growing asset class” in a “regulated, safe and engaging manner.”

BitMart US positions the launch as part of its broader mission to reduce barriers to entry for retail investors. Daniel Huang, COO of BitMart US, stated the partnership reflects the company’s commitment to accessibility and introduces “a new category of products.” The move reflects growing institutional interest in regulated prediction market products within the United States, as exchanges increasingly integrate third-party B2B providers rather than developing proprietary systems.
BitMart US is a compliance-focused exchange serving retail and institutional users across the United States with cryptocurrency trading services and fiat conversion capabilities.
