The new desk will initially focus on non-sports contracts listed on Kalshi and Polymarket and lets clients pair these positions with hedges across equities, commodities and other asset classes to build broader event-driven strategies, the company said. By acting as a principal counterparty and facilitating large trades such as a $10 million CLARITY Act wager with hedge fund Arca, Galaxy aims to deepen liquidity, attract professional investors and further institutionalize prediction markets despite ongoing regulatory uncertainty. Galaxy Digital (GLXY) said Tuesday it had launched over-the-counter (OTC) prediction markets trading for institutional investors, becoming one of the first major digital asset firms to offer large-scale access to event-driven markets through a bilateral trading framework.
