Solana wallet Solflare has introduced prediction markets directly inside its wallet, marking a major expansion of what on-chain wallets can do beyond storage, swaps, and staking.
Users can now trade real-world outcomes across sports, politics, crypto, culture, technology, and more, without leaving the app they already use.
The feature is powered by Kalshi, the regulated prediction market platform, and enabled by dFlow, bringing institutional-grade infrastructure into a self-custodial wallet environment. Solflare confirmed the rollout in a public announcement, positioning prediction markets as a native wallet experience rather than an external product.

There are zero additional fees from Solflare for accessing these markets. Everything happens inside the wallet interface, using USDC, and feels as seamless as executing a token swap.
Prediction Markets Move Mainstream
Prediction markets have existed for years, but scale has always been the missing piece. That is changing fast.
According to Forbes estimates, more than $17 billion was traded on Kalshi throughout 2025, a sharp increase that reflects rising interest in market-based forecasting rather than opinion-driven speculation. While sports continue to dominate volume, Kalshi now hosts hundreds of active markets spanning elections, macroeconomic events, cultural milestones, technology trends, and even weather forecasts.
You can trade on who will top the Billboard Top 100, whether inflation data beats expectations, or how a major political event resolves. These markets often move before headlines break, absorbing information faster than polls or analyst reports.
By embedding Kalshi directly into Solflare, prediction markets take another step toward mainstream accessibility. No separate accounts. No new interfaces. Just markets, inside the wallet.
How Prediction Markets Work In Solflare
The experience is intentionally simple.
Prediction markets inside Solflare operate using binary outcomes. Every market has two choices: “Yes” or “No.” You are not buying a token. You are buying exposure to an outcome.
Using the feature is straightforward:
Open your Solflare wallet, either on mobile or browser extension. From your portfolio, tap “Prediction Markets.” Choose a category such as Sports, Politics, Crypto, Culture, or Tech. Select a market. Pick “Yes” or “No.” Enter the amount of USDC you want to allocate. Review potential outcomes and execute.
That’s it.
Once the trade is live, you can hold until resolution, exit early, or manage your position as prices shift. Like other markets, pricing reflects probability. As new information enters the system, odds move in real time.
This mirrors how sophisticated traders already use prediction markets, but now it is accessible to everyday wallet users.
Beyond Tokens And NFTs
For years, on-chain trading has focused on assets like tokens, NFTs, and more recently, tokenized stocks. Prediction markets expand that scope dramatically.
They allow users to trade expectations, not just assets. You are no longer limited to price direction. You are trading on outcomes, who wins, what happens, and when.
This matters because markets often capture collective intelligence faster than traditional news cycles. When uncertainty rises, prediction markets adjust instantly. When confidence builds, prices reflect it.
Solflare’s integration reflects a broader shift. Wallets are becoming financial operating systems, not just storage tools. Users increasingly expect to interact with complex financial instruments directly from their wallet, without intermediaries.
Prediction markets fit naturally into that evolution.
Kalshi’s Expanding Footprint
Kalshi’s role in this integration is central.
As a regulated prediction market, Kalshi has focused on compliance, structured market design, and liquidity. That foundation makes it easier for platforms like Solflare to integrate prediction markets responsibly while respecting regulatory boundaries.
Kalshi’s ecosystem team highlighted the launch as part of a broader effort to bring prediction markets to where users already are, rather than forcing them to adopt new platforms.

The Solflare integration also reflects how infrastructure providers like dFlow are quietly enabling these experiences behind the scenes, handling routing and execution so users only see a clean interface.

Risks, Rules, And The Road Ahead
Despite the excitement, prediction markets are not risk-free.
Availability varies by jurisdiction and is subject to local laws and regulations. Pricing can be volatile. Liquidity may be limited in certain markets. And outcomes do not always resolve in your favor. If they don’t, you can lose the full amount allocated to that position.
There are also broader regulatory considerations. Prediction markets sit at the intersection of finance, gaming, and forecasting. That makes them powerful, but also closely watched.
Solflare and Kalshi both emphasize that participation involves risk and that users should understand the mechanics before trading.
Still, the direction is clear.
Prediction markets are moving from niche tools into mainstream financial infrastructure. By embedding them directly into a Solana wallet, Solflare lowers friction and expands access at the same time.
We talk about the future of finance often. In this case, the future is already live. Users can now trade real-world outcomes, in real time, from inside their wallet.
No extra apps. No new accounts. Just markets, where expectations meet capital.
