Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA), a CFTC-registered exchange and clearinghouse affiliated with Crypto.com, has announced a strategic collaboration with ERShares and Signal Markets to develop a global market-intelligence platform centered on prediction markets.
The initiative aims to integrate macroeconomic data, financial markets, and corporate outcomes into a unified framework designed to provide real-time insight into market expectations
Expanding prediction markets beyond isolated events
Rather than focusing solely on isolated events, the platform is designed to offer a continuously updating view of how markets collectively interpret policy signals, economic data, and company performance. The platform aggregates probabilistic signals across multiple asset classes and indicators to deliver a broader, expectation-driven view of global markets.
Crypto.com brings its global user base and existing prediction market infrastructure to the collaboration, while ERShares and Signal Markets contribute research, analytics, and modeling capabilities. The companies said the platform is intended to help users better understand market dynamics and risk through data-driven insights.
“Crypto.com has built one of the most powerful global platforms in digital finance,” said Joel Shulman, Founder and CIO of ERShares and Professor of Entrepreneurship at Babson College. “By combining that scale and technology with our investment framework and Signal Markets’ analytical engine, we are creating a new way for investors to understand markets through expectations rather than hindsight.”
Eva Ados, Chief Investment Strategist and COO of ERShares, added:
“As market complexity increases, investors need clearer signals, not more noise. This platform is designed to connect macroeconomic trends, asset prices, and corporate performance into one practical view of global markets.”
Combining access with intelligence
Under the agreement, ERShares will oversee information integration, research design, and media and podcast programming. Signal Markets will provide the probability-based forecasting architecture and data design, while Crypto.com will handle platform integration, user access, and global distribution across its ecosystem.
“This collaboration reflects our belief that the future of financial platforms lies in combining access with intelligence,” said Travis McGhee, Global Head of Predictions at Crypto.com. “By working with ERShares and Signal Markets, we are expanding our exchange and clearinghouse beyond transactions into tools that help users better understand markets, trends, and risk through data-driven insight. This is the next innovative step in Prediction Markets.”
