According to Reuters, on Monday, the SEC delayed 24 prediction market exchange-traded funds set to debut this week from issuers including Bitwise, Roundhill, and GraniteShares while reviewing how the products function and assess investor risks.
The filings were submitted in February and neared the end of a 75-day review window, after which they would have become effective under new ETF fast-track rules. The proposed funds offer exposure to outcomes tied to the 2028 U.S. election, tech-sector layoffs, and recession likelihood. Unlike traditional ETFs, these funds are structured as binary yes-or-no outcomes similar to prediction market platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, which clocked a combined $85 billion in volume in the first four months of 2026.
