Truth Network Advances U.S. Prediction Markets with NFA Registration and FCM Partnership

Truth Network, a blockchain infrastructure provider for prediction markets, has announced a significant development in the U.S. through its platform Galactic. Galactic, which is part of the Truth Network ecosystem and led by veteran media executive Stuart Stott, has made regulatory progress by registering with the National Futures Association (NFA) and forming a strategic alliance with a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM). These steps are expected to facilitate the launch of fully regulated prediction markets in the United States [1].

The NFA registration and FCM partnership are foundational to Galactic’s strategy to operate within a legal and transparent framework. The platform aims to engage mainstream audiences in prediction markets while adhering to U.S. financial regulations. This approach is intended to build trust among participants and demonstrate a commitment to compliance [1].

Andres Meneses, Global Community Architect of Truth Network, stated that prediction markets are entering an era where regulation, transparency, and market participation can coexist on a large scale. He emphasized that Galactic’s progress marks a milestone for the industry and illustrates how the Truth Network infrastructure can support compliant, high-impact platforms [1].

Truth Network’s broader mission is to build a decentralized infrastructure that provides real-time, crowd-sourced forecasts on real-world events. The platform aims to offer actionable insights to communities, media, and enterprises through a transparent and secure system. Galactic’s role in the ecosystem is to drive awareness and adoption of prediction markets using media-driven engagement strategies [1].

The regulatory developments represent a major shift in the prediction market landscape, where compliance is often a barrier to growth. By securing NFA registration and partnering with an FCM, Galactic signals its commitment to meeting high standards of compliance, transparency, and trust. This position is expected to attract a broader range of participants and investors who may have been hesitant to engage in unregulated markets [1].

As the U.S. continues to explore regulatory frameworks for emerging financial technologies, Galactic’s approach demonstrates how blockchain-based platforms can integrate with existing financial infrastructure. The FCM partnership is particularly significant, as it provides a trusted intermediary to facilitate compliance and operational integrity [1].

Truth Network remains focused on balancing innovation with adherence to regulatory standards. The company believes that prediction markets can transform decision-making processes in various industries, including politics and economics [1].
