Introduction
On 18 August, Trading Technologies International (TT) and Crypto.com announced a new partnership that will allow TT’s institutional clientele to trade OG.com’s regulated prediction contracts directly from the TT platform. The integration, slated to launch in the fourth quarter of 2026, also coincides with TT’s forthcoming support for Crypto.com’s margin‑based crypto futures.
The OG.com Connection
OG.com is a CFTC‑registered prediction‑markets exchange operated by Crypto.com Derivatives North America (CDNA), which formerly went by the name Nadex before being acquired by Crypto.com in 2021. The contracts traded on OG.com are cleared through CDNA, ensuring compliance with U.S. regulatory requirements.
TT’s new link will allow traders to use the same execution engines, algorithmic tools and risk‑management frameworks they currently employ for futures, options and foreign‑exchange products. According to Alun Green, TT’s Executive Vice‑President and Managing Director for Futures and Options, “there is a strong and growing appetite among our institutional clients to trade regulated prediction and digital asset markets.” By keeping all activity within a single workflow, the firm aims to reduce operational friction and attract more professional liquidity.
Building a Portfolio of Event‑Market Access
TT’s integration with OG.com follows a prior partnership with Kalshi, another U.S.‑regulated event‑market exchange. These deals illustrate a broader strategy: TT is expanding its portfolio of links to event‑based markets rather than focusing on a single platform. Other infrastructure providers are pursuing similar initiatives. Alpaca has established its own futures commission merchant subsidiary to avoid third‑party routing, Tradeweb has collaborated with Kalshi on institutional data and analytics, and ION has added event‑based contracts to its XTP platform.
Revenue and Market Impact
Each new connection reshapes revenue distribution as prediction contracts grow. When infrastructure providers like TT, Tradeweb or ION open these markets to professional traders, exchanges such as Kalshi and OG.com gain easier access to institutional liquidity, while the providers capture additional fees from execution, data, and clearing services. Crypto.com has spun its prediction‑markets business into a standalone platform after reporting a 40‑fold increase in activity, underscoring the sector’s rapid expansion.
Looking Ahead
The Q4 2026 launch will mark a significant milestone for institutional traders seeking regulated event‑market exposure without abandoning their familiar platforms. By integrating OG.com alongside new crypto futures, TT positions itself as a comprehensive solution for diversified derivatives trading. As more brokers and infrastructure firms follow suit, the accessibility of prediction markets for professional participants is set to broaden further.
Bottom Line
TT’s partnership with Crypto.com’s OG.com demonstrates a growing trend of providing institutional traders with seamless, regulated access to event‑based contracts. The move not only enhances the platform’s product offering but also signals a shift in how liquidity and revenue are distributed across the evolving derivatives ecosystem.
