Calgary, Alberta — November 26, 2025 — Leads & Copy — DeepMarkit Corp. announced a sharpened strategic focus on prediction markets following the acquisition of Prospect Prediction Markets Inc. The deal closed Nov. 18, 2025.
DeepMarkit acquired Prospect’s blockchain-powered, free-to-play platform giving them immediate entry into the sports prediction category. The acquisition enhances DeepMarkit’s portfolio and enabling it to leverage capabilities in blockchain technology and tokenization.
According to Steve Vanry, Chief Executive Officer of DeepMarkit Corp., shareholders requested the company prioritize businesses with user demand and scalable digital economics. He added that prediction markets align with their goals, and with Prospect’s technology in-house, the company can expand through fan engagement and evolve with partnerships and regulations.
Prediction markets enable users to trade event contracts that pay out based on future outcomes. Participants buy and sell contracts linked to specific events, such as sporting results, elections, or economic indicators, with contract prices reflecting the market’s consensus probability of that outcome occurring.
Prediction markets aggregate views and incentives from participants, which can become tools for forecasting and measuring real-time sentiment across sectors, including sports, entertainment, politics, elections, macroeconomic indicators, and corporate and financial events. For DeepMarkit shareholders, prediction markets represent a digital business model where technology, data, and user engagement are primary value drivers.
Prediction markets have evolved into mainstream digital platforms, enabled by online trading, gamified finance, blockchain advances and demand for real-time sentiment indicators, with platforms like Kalshi, Polymarket, and Opinion seeing trading volumes exceeding $3 billion.
DeepMarkit will take a compliance-led approach to expansion, focusing on meeting legal and regulatory requirements.
DeepMarkit’s entry into prediction markets aligns with its focus on scalable software, data, and digital asset infrastructure. The acquisition and strategic direction intend to leverage blockchain and tokenization experience, build a technology-driven platform, create data products tied to market expectations, and position DeepMarkit in a vertical with global reach.
The company will prioritize free-to-play offerings while evaluating revenue models and market entries in line with evolving regulations.
To support this focus, DeepMarkit appointed Trevor Broad as Chief Technology Officer and Director, and Sacha Beharie as Head of Capital Markets.
Broad brings 15 years of technology leadership in Fintech and Insurtech, overseeing the prediction markets platform’s architecture and scalability, integration of product features, and implementation of compliance-supporting systems.
Beharie, a finance executive with two decades of capital markets experience, will support go-to-market strategies, develop partnerships, and provide capital markets insight.
DeepMarkit’s near-term priorities include product development by integrating acquired technology, enhancing backend systems and user experience, and expanding event categories; maintaining compliance; pursuing audience-building partnerships; and testing non-wagering revenue models.
The company granted 1,260,000 incentive stock options under its stock option plan to officers, consultants, and employees, exercisable at $0.41 per common share.
