Myriad Markets Raises $20M Series A and Integrates Trust Wallet
The publisher-embedded prediction market SDK closed a $20M Series A and added Trust Wallet integration, giving millions of mobile crypto users direct access to its markets.
Myriad Markets, the prediction market infrastructure provider focused on embedding event contracts into publisher and media experiences, announced a $20 million Series A in February 2026. The company launched in March 2025 and has since partnered with several crypto-native media outlets to bring prediction markets into editorial contexts, so readers can trade on news stories without leaving the publisher's site.
Alongside the funding, Myriad announced a Trust Wallet integration. Trust Wallet, one of the most widely used mobile crypto wallets globally with tens of millions of users, now allows direct access to Myriad markets. Users can browse and trade event contracts without installing separate software or navigating to a standalone platform.
The funding round also coincided with Myriad's shift to USD1 stablecoin settlement, switching from USDC to the Justin Sun-backed USD1 (launched January 2026) as its primary settlement currency. The company supports multiple chains and aims for the widest possible on-ramp regardless of which blockchain a user prefers.
The publisher-embedded model addresses a key friction in prediction market adoption: most users don't visit dedicated prediction market platforms. By meeting users where they already consume news, Myriad bets that engagement with event contracts can grow far beyond the current niche of active market traders.

The Ohio Casino Control Commission says it did not request the ban — adding a new, private-sector front to a fight that has so far run through courts and statehouses.
