Trust Wallet has rolled out a new “Predictions” section that lets users browse and take positions on prediction markets directly inside the wallet—no separate website, no custodial account. The feature arrives as interest in on-chain event trading accelerates across crypto, finance, and media. ForkLog and other outlets flagged the launch this week, positioning it as another step in wallets becoming “super apps” for trading not just tokens, but opinions and information.
What Trust Wallet announced
In a product post, Trust Wallet says users can now view markets, take positions, and track outcomes in self-custody through a new in-app experience. The company frames “Predictions” as a safer UX for real-world event trading: you connect once (you’re already in the wallet), approve fewer transactions, and never relinquish keys. The post emphasizes self-custody, on-chain settlement, and simple navigation from the wallet’s DApp surface.
A companion explainer from Trust Wallet’s content team walks through how prediction markets work and how to connect via the wallet’s DApp browser, reinforcing that the integration is meant to reduce friction versus hopping across third-party sites.
Who’s powering it: Myriad now, others next
Early coverage and ecosystem posts point to Myriad as the first provider powering the in-app markets, with the wallet experience designed so users can discover, fund, and trade without leaving Trust Wallet. Additional material hints that Polymarket and Kalshi integrations are on the roadmap, aligning the product with both crypto-native and regulated U.S. prediction venues. (Trust Wallet’s recent educational pieces name-check all three platforms.)
External reports echo that mix: Yahoo Finance and Finance Magnates describe the launch and note that Trust Wallet is joining a broader wallet trend—one where event markets sit alongside swaps, staking, and portfolio tools.
Why wallets are moving into prediction markets
Two things changed in 2024–2025:
- User demand and volumes spiked. Prediction venues have posted record activity this year, and news organizations have begun piping live probability data into coverage, signaling mainstream curiosity. (Kalshi’s media partnerships are one high-profile example.)
- Wallets are competing on utility, not just storage. MetaMask, for instance, announced a native Polymarket integration this fall, alongside perps trading—evidence that wallet teams see a future where users trade many things without leaving self-custody. Trust Wallet’s move lands squarely in that trend.
Trust Wallet’s CEO Eowyn Chen has repeatedly argued that wallets should be the hub for expressing market views—“not five different apps for five different bets.” That positioning is reflected in ForkLog’s write-up, which quotes Chen’s comment to Cointelegraph about wallets becoming centers for “information, opinions and expectations,” not only token swaps.
What users will see inside the app
- A Predictions tile in the Trust Wallet interface that surfaces real-world markets (from politics and macro to sports and crypto events).
- A unified trading flow where you review odds/prices, fund the position, and manage settlements in self-custody.
- Educational links on how prediction markets work and how to connect the DApp browser, aimed at first-timers.
For those already familiar with dapps: the point is to cut three or four steps (open site → connect wallet → approve → trade) down to one or two inside a trusted environment. That design goal—less context switching, fewer approvals—runs through Trust Wallet’s docs and partner notes.
How this fits the bigger 2025 prediction-market story
The feature doesn’t launch into a vacuum. MetaMask has announced native access to Polymarket, and regulated markets like Kalshi have been winning visibility through high-profile partnerships. Wallet integration is the logical next step: if probabilities are becoming a consumer data layer, giving users a one-tap way to express a view (long/short an outcome) drives engagement—and, potentially, better information flow.
Trust Wallet has also been seeding the ground with education posts about the space (best markets in 2025; guides to connecting via DApp Browser), suggesting it wants users to arrive with context and a baseline of literacy.
Caveats: geofencing, compliance, and venue differences
Not every market is available to every user. Jurisdiction and venue rules (especially for election-related markets in the U.S.) still apply, and different providers have different KYC and regional constraints. Users will likely encounter availability notices or be routed to markets their region allows. As with any dapp interaction, fees, slippage, and settlement rules vary by platform. (MetaMask’s Polymarket plan, for example, is rolling out to specific regions.)
The wallet’s positioning around self-custody does not remove market risk: event contracts can expire out-of-the-money, and liquidity can be uneven across categories. Trust Wallet’s own education pages encourage users to understand how markets settle and to start small.
Why it matters
- For users: A simpler on-ramp to decentralized prediction markets with fewer approvals and no custodial account.
- For wallets: Another proof point that the wallet is evolving into a trading and data hub, not just a key manager.
- For the market: More surface area for real-world event trading could normalize probabilities in everyday apps—news, social, and now wallets—potentially improving the feedback loop between information and markets.
As Trust Wallet’s post puts it, the goal is to let users “earn on real-world outcomes” while keeping control of keys—an approach that sits neatly alongside swaps, staking, and portfolio tracking already popular in self-custody wallets.
Conclusion
Trust Wallet’s “Predictions” brings real-world event trading into a self-custody wallet used by hundreds of millions. Powered initially by Myriad and positioned to incorporate Polymarket and Kalshi, the feature turns a wallet into a place to trade information, not just tokens. That’s a meaningful step for the mainstreaming of decentralized prediction markets—and a sign of where wallet UX is headed next.
