Trump Media Chooses Crypto.com to Build Prediction Market Platform on Truth Social

Trump Media Partners With Crypto.com to Launch ‘Truth Predict’ on Truth Social

Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT), the parent company of Truth Social, announced a partnership with Crypto.com’s U.S.-registered derivatives division to launch Truth Predict, a built-in prediction market for the social platform.

The new feature will allow users to wager on outcomes of political, economic, and sporting events — including U.S. elections, Federal Reserve rate decisions, and commodity prices — through a CFTC-regulated exchange operated by Crypto.com.

If successfully launched, Truth Social would become the first social media platform to integrate a native, regulated prediction market, merging user engagement with real-time market insights.

Shares of Trump Media (DJT) rose 4.4% in premarket trading, while Crypto.com’s CRO token gained 4.9% following the announcement.

“Truth Predict is about turning free speech into actionable foresight,” said Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes, adding that the feature marks the company’s expansion into financial technology. Trump Media recently reported over $3 billion in assets and achieved its first quarter of positive cash flow since going public.

Users will also be able to earn “Truth Gems”, in-app rewards that can be converted into CRO tokens and used to participate in prediction markets.

Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek said the initiative brings prediction trading to a wider audience by combining “social interaction and financial innovation.”

The product will launch in the U.S. first, with international rollout expected after regulatory approvals. Trump Media also hinted at additional digital asset initiatives, including a CRO-linked treasury product tied to its planned merger with Yorkville Acquisition Corp.

The move positions Trump Media to compete directly with Polymarket and Kalshi, both of which have drawn major institutional investment in 2025.
