PredictArena Inc. launched a web-based prediction market Oct. 15 for creators, sports handicappers and former athletes, adding a creator-focused route into event trading alongside an introducing-broker relationship with Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA).
Chicago-based PredictArena says creators can set up profiles, post predictions and direct audiences toward markets tied to topics they cover. Its announcement says creators can “participate economically,” but does not define the term or say whether they will be paid. The company did not detail a creator payment structure.
PredictArena’s website says Foris DAX FCM LLC is responsible for customer accounts and funds. The company assigns trade execution and clearing to CDNA.
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) identifies North American Derivatives Exchange Inc. as a designated contract market operating as Crypto.com. The agency also lists NADEX d/b/a CDNA as a registered clearing organization. Foris DAX FCM LLC appears as a registered futures commission merchant in the CFTC’s April 2026 report.
PredictArena Founder and CEO Austin Pfenninger called creators “one of the most powerful distribution channels on the internet.” The company’s announcement did not include user totals, trading volume or liquidity figures.
PredictArena said the web service is available and expects to release an app in the coming weeks, but it has not announced a date. Its website cautions that event-contract customers may lose money and says the products may not suit everyone.
