Myriad Moves: Will Trump Drop Another F-Bomb? Plus Predictions on Ethereum and Wimbledon

Prediction markets let users put their knowledge to the test across politics, pop culture, crypto, sports, gaming, and beyond, trading event probabilities in real-time markets alongside their peers. 

Such apps had a breakout moment with last year’s U.S. presidential election, and now Myriad Markets offers both long-term and flash markets across a variety of subjects to test users’ ability to predict the future.

Here’s a look at some of the most interesting markets making waves right now at Myriad.

President Trump to swear again to the media before August?

Market Open: June 24
Market Close: July 31
Volume: $1.62K

Being president means you’ll make a lot of headlines, and sometimes not for the best reasons. President Donald Trump found himself in such a moment earlier this week when he dropped an f-bomb on a live television spot when discussing the Iran and Israel conflict. 

The quip quickly made the rounds on social media, spawned some new meme coins, and also led to the creation of this new Myriad market—which asks predictors whether or not President Trump will swear again to the media before August. 

And while the president is typically loose-lipped and prone to saying just about anything, predictors do not believe he’ll be caught using explosive language—something sharper than “hell” or “damn”—prior to August. 

As of Thursday afternoon, Myriad predictors place “no” at 62%, predicting that he won’t be swearing in any unedited clips or via his Truth Social posts, which also count towards the market resolution. 

A report from the Independent revealed that the President posts on social media around 17 times per day, on average. Will he slip in a harsh expletive over the course of the next month? 

What’s Next? This market closes on July 31 at 11:59pm ET. 

Ethereum’s next hit: Moon to $3,000 or dip to $2,000?

Market Open: June 18
Market Close: December 31
Volume: $13K

Ethereum’s price has been above $3,000 and below $2,000 at separate points this year, but since early May, it has ranged between the two numbers. 

Now trading at $2,438, a new Myriad prediction market asks users which mark will be hit next—a jump up to $3,000 or a drop down to $2,000? 

At present time, predictors give the narrowest of edges to the $2,000 dive, with odds of around 50.8% as of Thursday afternoon. 

Those odds have shifted quite dramatically though, dropping around 27% in the last week as odds of $2,000 peaked around 77% on June 22. Unsurprisingly, the odds drop has coincided with a rebound in Ethereum’s price as tensions in Israel and Iran eased and a ceasefire announcement was made. 

The second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap jumped from as low as $2,182 over the weekend to its current price, which sits almost squarely in the middle of the two key markers for this Myriad market.

But the recent price rise doesn’t necessarily mean that a higher price is the path forward. The market odds mirror recent technical analysis, which leaned bearish as long-term and short-term moving averages converge. 

What’s Next? Predictors may want to keep an eye on another two key numbers before making their predictions: the $2,200 support and $2,800 resistance levels, which may hold the keys to whether or not Ethereum dips or moons next.

Who will win the 2025 Wimbledon men’s singles title?

Market Open: June 18
Market Close: July 13
Volume: $7.37K

Professional tennis’s most prestigious tournament is right around the corner, and predictors on Myriad can now choose who they think will walk away with the Wimbledon men’s singles title. 

Last year, world #2 Carlos Alcaraz walked away from London’s grass courts with the trophy in hand. This year, traditional sportsbooks make him the favorite and Myriad predictors feel the same, with odds standing at 44% on Myriad prior to the tournament’s first ball.

Yet, while sportsbooks like DraftKings make Alcaraz the favorite as the field is set, his odds only stand around 41.67% at present time. 

Perhaps predictors are granting the slight edge to Alcaraz based on his recent thrilling victory over Jannik Sinner at the French Open, but it is Sinner who holds a slight odds advantage when comparing Myriad to traditional sportsbooks. Predictions thus far place Sinner at just 32% to win Wimbledon for the first time, meanwhile DraftKings odds give him around a 36% chance to win. 

What’s Next? The final round of qualifying concluded on Thursday, and the Wimbledon draw or bracket ceremony will take place on Friday.
