BlockBeats News, January 14 – Backpack CEO Armani Ferrante announced that Backpack has launched its first product in the prediction market space: the Unified Prediction Portfolio. The Unified Prediction Portfolio is not simply a wrapper around prediction market platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket, but a brand-new native system under Backpack, allowing users to complete quoting, trading, and hedging operations within a single margin account. User funds can be used not only for predictions but also seamlessly across all predictions on the Backpack platform, without splitting fund balances or affecting other investments, utilizing cross-margin and cross-collateralization.
Currently, the Backpack Unified Prediction Portfolio has launched a private beta limited to invited participants, aiming to build cutting-edge cryptocurrency and financial prediction markets.
