TechFlow, November 7 — According to a Bloomberg report, Bernstein's latest research report has officially recognized prediction markets as a viable asset class, noting that this market—once seen as a niche speculation—is rapidly integrating into the mainstream financial system and has already gained real capital backing, a stable user base, and regulatory recognition.
The report specifically highlighted that Robinhood and Coinbase will benefit from the growth of prediction markets and countered skepticism about the market being too small to scale.
Analysis shows that the U.S. regulatory environment is gradually becoming more permissive, with prediction market platforms accelerating their penetration into mainstream finance by forming partnerships with major financial institutions and integrating retail services. This trend marks rising investor acceptance of alternative financial products and reflects a shift in the balance between financial innovation and regulation in favor of innovation.
