Now, the crypto trading platform dYdX is offering fans a new way to engage with the championship: prediction market-based perpetuals.
This innovative product lets users turn their knowledge of baseball into trades, creating a bridge between sports insights and financial markets.
Understanding Prediction Market-Based Perpetuals
Prediction market perpetuals are financial contracts that let users gain exposure to real-world events. In this case, the event is straightforward: will the LA Dodgers win the 2025 World Series? Market prices reflect the collective expectations of traders. If your prediction is correct, the contract settles at $1. If not, it drops close to zero.
These derivatives are unique because they combine elements of betting with professional trading strategies. For example, investors can apply perpetual leverage up to 5x, allowing them to amplify their potential returns while controlling exposure. Tools such as stop-loss and take-profit orders help manage risk, a feature missing in most sports betting apps. The market also offers real-time settlement tied directly to the World Series outcome, ensuring transparency and clarity for traders.
⚡️A first for DeFi!

A real-world example comes from the recent NFL playoffs, where prediction markets for Super Bowl outcomes saw volumes exceeding $50 million in crypto. These markets allowed participants to trade on probabilities rather than simply betting, showing the growing appeal of narrative-driven financial products.
