DATA.BET launches Up or Down markets for crypto and API in Prediction Markets

DATA.BET announced a significant update to its Prediction Markets product, integrating the new 'Up or Down' market with a focus on crypto, more financial data widgets, and the capability for API integration. The operator aims to create a permanently available vertical, disconnected from the sports calendar, catering to both end-users and betting operators demanding short settlement cycles and efficient integration tools.

DATA.BET: Expansion in Predictive Markets and New Crypto Functions

The announcement details the incorporation of a "Up or Down" market specifically designed for crypto assets. This market sets a target price and offers bettors the option to predict the upward or downward movement of an asset within five resolution horizons: 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and daily. This design introduces settlements in minutes, facilitating quick updates and resolutions of bets compared to the traditional monthly cycles in other verticals.

“Prediction Markets was conceived to provide operators with a dynamic proposal independent of the sports calendar,” stated Rostyslav Likhtin, Head of Product at DATA.BET.

The company highlights that these solutions position the product as a "always-active" betting offer, particularly appealing to operators looking to complement traditional sports and casino offerings.

Widgets and Visualization: Real-time Information and Historical Context

The launch adds interactive new widgets available for both crypto and financial markets. The widgets display live prices of assets like BTC and ETH, in addition to commodities (Gold, Oil). Users access graphs with the target line, countdown timer until resolution, and published settlement conditions before the opening of each market.

These modules also add historical probability widgets to visualize:

• Market evolution over 1 day
• 1 week
• 1 month
• Total historical

Moreover, the volume layer and exact resolution conditions are outlined for each category, which can enhance operational transparency and fast reading of the betting scenario.

Technical Integration: API and Content Management for Operators

Prediction Markets, which originally launched via iFrame in April 2026, now incorporates API integration. Operators already connected to the DATA.BET platform can activate Prediction Markets using their existing odds feed credentials and the sports events API, without the need for additional integrations.

Also announced are system optimizations, new content management features, and the ongoing development of a dedicated liquidity module to ensure operational stability as the vertical scales in volume and user numbers.

Operator Perspectives and Evolution of the Prediction Markets Product

DATA.BET positions Prediction Markets as a complementary offering aimed at boosting player acquisition and retention during periods without active sports events. Support for 5 and 15-minute horizons generates opportunities for micro-bets and responding to crypto volatility, aligning with fast-consumption trends gaining traction in the industry.

The incorporation of widgets under API and the iFrame flow provides flexibility for operators seeking agile integration and customization routes in their casino portals or omnichannel platforms. The casino sector and the B2B area can especially benefit from adopting products with short settlement cycles and expanded financial coverage.

Regarding the roadmap, DATA.BET has noted that the liquidity module is still in development, aiming to ensure market stability in scenarios of scalability and increasing volume.

An Evolving Product: Official Statement

“We are speeding up operations, simplifying visualization, and facilitating deployment. This is just the first step of what we plan to achieve,” stated Rostyslav Likhtin, Head of Product at DATA.BET.

The company underscores its intention to maintain an iterative process focused on speed, autonomy, and accuracy in market reading, consolidating itself as a relevant player in the offering of predictive crypto and financial markets.
