According to CoinDesk, World has launched a cross-chain prediction market on Solana today (July 1), available directly through Phantom wallet and world.xyz. The platform allows users to trade contracts linked to cryptocurrency prices, the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and other events using Solana-based wallets.
World utilizes Phantom's CASH stablecoin for settlement and Chainlink's oracles for price feeds and settlement infrastructure, eliminating reliance on manual arbitration. The protocol operates as non-custodial, with user funds and positions settled entirely on-chain. The platform plans to expand into sports, geopolitical, and macroeconomic markets, with partnerships involving traditional finance and crypto platforms scheduled for July.
