Gemini and Apex strike deal to bring crypto prediction markets to brokerages
The partnership lets brokerages offer Gemini's CFTC-regulated event contracts through Apex's existing infrastructure, removing a major barrier to entry.
Gemini is set to deepen its role in the regulated prediction markets through a proposed partnership with Apex Fintech Solutions, under which Gemini Titan would become the exclusive regulated venue for crypto event contracts offered through Apex’s FCM to brokerage clients.
The agreement would allow brokerages connected to Apex to offer crypto prediction contracts while relying on Gemini for trade execution and clearing. Apex’s brokerage customers could gain access to regulated crypto event markets without having to develop their own exchange and connectivity infrastructure.
Gemini and Apex could also collaborate on sports, economic and financial-market contracts, although those categories would not be subject to the same exclusivity arrangement.
Gemini’s position is backed by its existing CFTC licenses. Gemini Titan received a DCM license in December 2025, clearing the way for prediction trading, while Gemini’s clearing subsidiary Gemini Olympus secured a DCO license in April, allowing Gemini to handle derivatives clearing and settlement internally.

The proposed collaboration comes shortly after Gemini and Apex expanded their relationship into equities. In July, Gemini announced 0% commission stock trading for certain US customers, with Apex Clearing serving as the custodian and clearing broker.
Gemini and Apex expect to finalize the terms in the coming weeks.
