Gemini and Apex Fintech Solutions have announced their intention to enhance the distribution of Gemini's regulated cryptocurrency prediction markets to brokerage clients.
As part of the proposed agreement, Gemini Titan, a subsidiary of the cryptocurrency platform Gemini, will serve as the exclusive venue regulated by the CFTC for crypto event contracts distributed via Apex's Futures Commission Merchant (FCM).
Brokerages utilizing Apex's FCM will be able to execute and clear trades through Gemini, enabling them to offer crypto event contracts without the need to establish their own links to a prediction-market exchange.
This collaboration will also allow Apex to partner with Gemini on sports, economic, and financial-market contracts on a non-exclusive basis.
“We believe that predictions are the future of markets, and this strategy enables us to broaden our offerings and provide access to valued partners like Apex as the demand for event contracts increases,” stated Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss.
Gemini has been actively developing the regulatory framework for its prediction-market operations. In December 2025, Gemini Titan obtained a Designated Contract Market license from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, permitting it to run a regulated derivatives exchange and facilitate prediction trading.
In April, another Gemini subsidiary, Gemini Olympus, secured a CFTC Derivatives Clearing Organization license, allowing the company to manage clearing and settlement for Gemini Titan internally.
“With over a decade of experience in creating and managing a regulated platform for cryptocurrency, we intentionally chose to develop our predictions platform in-house,” Winklevoss added.
Prediction markets have seen significant growth, with monthly trading volumes on leading platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket reaching nearly $24 billion by April, a substantial increase from under $5 billion in September 2025, according to the Pew Research Center. Major categories include sports, politics, and cryptocurrency.
This new partnership builds on the existing relationship between Gemini and Apex, which began in July when Gemini introduced commission-free stock trading for select U.S. customers, with Apex Clearing Corp. serving as custodian and clearing broker.
“This collaboration with Gemini is about creating a connection between traditional finance and the future,” remarked Travis McGhee, Global Head of Digital Markets at Apex Fintech Solutions. “Our brokerage clients gain regulated access to crypto event contracts without the burden of building the infrastructure themselves.”
The companies anticipate finalizing the details of their collaboration in the upcoming weeks.
Additionally, Gemini has been enhancing its prediction-market technology, launching an AI-driven Command Center in May that offers market summaries, sentiment analysis, and personalized signals within its app.
