What is Gemini?
Gemini is a crypto platform where you can buy and trade more than 90 cryptocurrencies, trade prediction markets and earn through staking. It also offers the Gemini Credit Card. It has been running since 2015 and works through a web platform and a mobile app.
Gemini Predictions lists event contracts. Each one is a yes/no question about a real-world outcome in sports, crypto, commodities, economics, politics, tech, business or culture. You pick Yes or No and can sell your position before the event closes. A correct contract pays $1.00, which goes straight into your Gemini account. The site says the predictions feature is powered by Grok and personalized in real time.
Advanced traders get ActiveTrader, margin trading, perpetuals and a developer platform. Institutions can use custody, OTC, clearing and staking. Gemini Trust Company, LLC is NMLS-registered (#1518126).
