Crypto.com and OG.com have launched AI Predictions Market Contracts on a CFTC-regulated exchange, marking the first tradable contracts to measure artificial intelligence adoption across consumers, enterprises, and public companies. The partnership with PYMNTS Intelligence will begin trading in September 2026 with more than 20 contracts spanning consumer behavior, enterprise deployment, workforce transformation, financial services, retail and healthcare sectors.

  • Launch Date: September 2026
  • Initial Contracts: 20+ spanning multiple sectors
  • Expansion: Approximately 25 additional contracts per quarter
  • Partnership Duration: Two-year exclusive agreement
  • Data Sources: Monthly consumer surveys (4,000 respondents), quarterly enterprise studies (500 firms), quarterly public company disclosures

The contracts leverage data collected by PYMNTS Intelligence over nearly 30 months of continuous AI adoption measurement. Rather than relying on indirect indicators such as semiconductor demand or cloud spending, the framework measures AI usage directly through primary research refreshed monthly and quarterly. This methodology establishes settlement standards and ensures contracts reflect current adoption trends rather than historical averages.

Kris Marszalek, Co-Founder and CEO of Crypto.com and OG.com, stated the contracts provide a transparent mechanism for understanding economic transformation. The products will be distributed through Crypto.com‘s introducing broker and partner networks, combining the exchange’s market infrastructure with independent measurement data.

The measurement framework operates across three components: consumer behavior tracking through nationally representative monthly surveys of 4,000 U.S. adults; enterprise deployment assessment via quarterly studies of 500 organizations; and corporate disclosure analysis examining SEC filings and earnings materials. All data extraction undergoes validation through documented methodology, creating a tradable asset class based on independently sourced intelligence rather than proprietary modeling.
