Potentially boding well for the Macquarie forecast are at least two factors. First, there are signs of turnover increases across a variety of yes/no exchanges. Second, volume surged to start September with those spikes arriving even before the NFL season kicked off.
As Macquarie analyst Chad Beynon points out, prediction markets generated $4.3 billion in taker volume during the first week of September without any help from the NFL, building on momentum from the 2026 World Cup. However, the NFL’s impact was immediate, with taker volume hitting a daily record during Week 1 of the campaign.
With all that in mind, it’s not surprising that Macquarie expects sports event contracts will drive approximately 80% of taker volume this year, but Beynon sees other categories growing over the long term.

Blueprint Gaming has added Triple Power Cash Strike to its Cash Strike series. The release matters less as a standalone game than as another bet on one of the studio’s most commercially reliable franchises. With several titles from the Cash Strike family regularly ranking among the supplier’s top 10 revenue-generating markets, the 5×3, 12,500x max win game looks set to build on the momentum the series has already established across regulated territories worldwide.
The title went live on September 10, 2026. Rather than reinventing its engine, Blueprint is reusing a mechanic that has already worked. That signals a strategy built on iteration, not experimentation.
The central hook is the return of the pots mechanic, tied here to multi-colored fireballs. The feature first appeared in Triple Action Cash Strike, where it earned its place off the back of that title’s success.
