Gemini Titan Becomes Exclusive Regulated Venue for Apex Crypto Event Contracts: 18 outlets compared

Gemini and Apex LOI

The companies said brokerages offering crypto event contracts through Apex’s FCM would use Gemini for execution and clearing, positioning Gemini as the regulated venue for crypto-based predictions markets accessed through Apex.

Gemini’s Tyler Winklevoss framed the move as an in-house build, saying, "We deliberately chose to build our predictions platform in-house."

Apex’s Travis McGhee described the partnership as a bridge to regulated access, saying, "Our brokerage clients get regulated access to crypto event contracts without having to build the plumbing themselves."

Regulatory buildout

The proposed exclusivity is tied to Gemini’s existing CFTC licensing, with Gemini Titan holding a Designated Contract Market license granted in December 2025 and Gemini Olympus holding a CFTC Derivatives Clearing Organization license obtained in April.

Marketscreener said the April DCO approval brings derivatives clearing and settlement for Gemini Titan in-house, while the December 2025 DCM license enabled Gemini to launch predictions trading.

Gemini’s regulatory milestones also underpin the operational scope of the Apex arrangement, because the companies said brokerages would route execution and clearing of crypto event contracts to Gemini under the alliance.
