Solana-Based Prediction Market World Launches Inside Phantom Wallet

Solana-based prediction market World has launched inside Phantom's wallet, giving millions of users access to peer-to-peer forecasting. The project, which quietly powered Phantom's markets since June 1, offers users a chance to wager on short-term Bitcoin price movements and outcomes tied to the 2026 World Cup.

World operates as a self-custody trading platform where users retain control from entry through redemption, echoing the design logic behind on-chain automated market makers. Settlement uses Phantom's CASH stablecoin, with winning positions automatically redeemed in the token.

The project's debut coincided with Solana's strong performance, which led a broad crypto rebound alongside Ethereum as bearish traders were caught in a violent short squeeze. The recovery marked the most forceful weekly bounce since mid-June, with Bitcoin briefly approaching 62,000 dollars.
