NOW Wallet , a non-custodial crypto wallet focused on security, multi-chain access, and seamless DeFi experience, now has direct access to perpetual futures and prediction markets built into the app. That means platforms like Hyperliquid, Aster, Lighter, GMX, and dYdX for perps trading, and Polymarket and PancakeSwap for prediction markets — all accessible without leaving the wallet.
What are perps and prediction markets?
Perpetual futures — perps — let you speculate on crypto price movements without holding the underlying asset. Leverage, short positions, real-time execution: these are the features that have made perps one of the most actively used products in crypto trading.
Prediction markets work differently. Instead of trading price, you’re trading probability — taking a position on whether something will happen. That could be a crypto price target, a macro event, an election, or something else entirely. Prices shift as sentiment shifts, and positions settle when the outcome is known.
Both have grown significantly across DeFi over the past couple of years.
Why bring this into the wallet?
Until now, accessing advanced DeFi trading tools meant a fragmented workflow — separate accounts on separate platforms, funds split across multiple places, constant switching between apps and browser tabs. It worked, but it wasn’t clean.
This update brings that access into one place. Users can connect to supported protocols directly through their wallet, fund trading balances, sign transactions, and manage positions — all while keeping self-custody of their assets. No centralised exchange accounts required.
The aim is straightforward: make on-chain trading more direct, less fragmented, and actually usable on mobile.
Part of a broader shift in crypto UX
Wallets started as storage tools. That’s changing. As more users engage with swaps, staking, trading, and prediction markets at the same time, the expectation has shifted — a wallet should be the access layer for all of it, not just a place to park funds between sessions.
Adding perps and prediction markets is part of that direction for NOW Wallet.
