Crypto.com has promoted Travis McGhee to Global Head of Predictions, where he will oversee the company’s growing portfolio of event contracts and prediction markets and lead its planned expansion into new jurisdictions, Finbold learned on Monday, November 17.
Expanding regulated prediction markets
The move comes after the rapid growth of Crypto.com’s predictions business, which launched in 2024 through its CFTC-registered exchange and clearinghouse, Crypto.com | Derivatives North America.
The platform now features event contracts across sports, financials, economics, and politics, and has expanded through integrations with Underdog, Truth Social, Hollywood.com, and MyPrize.
McGhee’s background
Before this promotion, McGhee served as Managing Director, Global Head of Capital Markets at Crypto.com, where he helped expand the firm’s product suite to include stock and ETF trading. He also previously served as CEO of Crypto.com | Derivatives North America.
Earlier in his career, McGhee was Chief Executive Officer of Nadex, a CFTC-regulated U.S. derivatives exchange acquired by Crypto.com. His prior experience includes roles at Tradestation, OptionsHouse, and TradeMonster, as well as options trading on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.
