Modo and Sporttrade pursue different paths into prediction markets
GamingAmerica reports ARB Interactive announced Modo, a new super gaming app that will integrate prediction markets and digital rips, with its prediction market product described as coming soon. Sporttrade is also moving into prediction markets after the CFTC approved it as a Designated Contract Market, allowing it to launch its own exchange across the country.
An app expansion and an exchange approval
ARB Interactive announced Modo, a new super gaming app that will incorporate prediction markets and digital rips, according to GamingAmerica. Its prediction-market product is described as coming soon.
The announcement places prediction markets alongside another gaming format within Modo. The supplied summary does not specify a launch date for the prediction-market product.
Sporttrade gains regulatory clearance
Sporttrade is also entering prediction markets after receiving CFTC approval as a Designated Contract Market, according to GamingAmerica. That approval allows Sporttrade to launch its own exchange across the country.
The two developments represent distinct routes into the sector: ARB Interactive is adding prediction markets to a broader app, while Sporttrade has secured approval to operate an exchange. Neither development, as described in the supplied summary, establishes that the respective prediction-market offering is already live.
What it means for prediction markets
- Launch status matters: Modo’s prediction-market product remains forthcoming; its announcement should not be treated as confirmation of availability.
- Approval and operation are separate milestones: Sporttrade’s Designated Contract Market approval enables a nationwide exchange launch, but the summary provides no launch date.
- Product details remain limited: The supplied material does not identify available contracts or market categories for either offering.
