“Recent launches, including customizable same-game parlays (SGPs), further support our view that Prediction Markets (PM) are increasingly converging with traditional sportsbooks,” observes Macquarie analyst Chad Beynon. “As a result, we now estimate total US PM taker volume to reach $190 billion in 2026E (vs $169 billion prior).”
If the research firm’s $190 billion taker volume estimate proves accurate, it’d represent a more than eightfold increase from the $22 billion taker turnover seen last year.
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.

Play’n GO’s own framing points to the commercial logic behind the choice. “The Coin carries the game. It pays on the spot, it locks into Hold & Spin, it builds multipliers in Bonus Spins. Operators get a game players read quickly, and GO Ultra changes what the wheel can land,” said Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO.
The observation about readability is the strategic point. Feature-dense slots can overwhelm newer players, and a shared trigger reduces the number of mechanics a player must track before understanding how the game rewards them.
The Coin also does more than open features. Six Coins open Hold & Spin with three Re-Spins, where Coins are the only symbols that can land. In that mode they lock into place, reset the respin counter with each new landing, and pay out their collected values when the respins run out. It’s a familiar Hold & Win framework kept intact rather than reinvented.
