A single-pitch contract fails, because a pitcher allegedly threw one for $5,000. A Federal Reserve market passes, because no trader could buy a rate decision.\nCEO Vlad Tenev calls Robinhood the largest retail brokerage in prediction markets, and the category is its fastest-growing business by revenue.\nMore than 16 billion event contracts have traded on its app this year, up from 12 billion in all of 2025, and Bernstein estimates the segment could bring in $586 million in 2026 revenue, up from $150 million, about 17% of transaction-based revenue.\nThe World Cup is doing the heavy lifting, and Robinhood now routes some of that action to Rothera, a CFTC-licensed exchange it and Susquehanna invested in last year through a joint venture.\nThe regulatory pressure is not only domestic. Spain, India, Indonesia and Brazil have all moved recently to block or shut down prediction platforms, squeezing the asset class abroad even as it explodes at home.\nThe June 10 CFTC proposal is still a draft, open to 45 days of public comment, so the rules, and the ceiling on Robinhood’s hottest product, will stay unsettled deep into the World Cup.\nImage: Shutterstock\nTo add Benzinga News as your preferred source on Google, click here.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
