Malta is drafting a dedicated regulatory framework for prediction markets outside traditional financial services law, whilst Blockchain.com integrates Polymarket into its app and Jump Trading doubles down on prediction market trading teams. The sector is shifting from legal battles to institutional distribution and infrastructure building.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3 and Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you're building prediction market infrastructure or compliance tools, Malta just opened a regulatory door that the EU hasn't. You have months to shape rules before the first licenses ship—and before MiCA kills this as a national play.
