France’s Round of 32 World Cup showdown against Sweden is doing more than filling MetLife Stadium. It’s filling order books across crypto prediction markets, with daily trading volume on France win markets topping $465K on Coinbase platforms alone.

The match, scheduled for June 30, features Arsenal defender William Saliba returning to France’s lineup after sitting out with a precautionary back concern during group play. On the other side, Tottenham’s Lucas Bergvall earns a starting midfield role for Sweden.

Prediction markets heat up alongside meme tokens

The $465K in daily volume for France win prediction markets represents just the visible layer of crypto activity surrounding this fixture.
