Meta is reportedly developing a new app, codenamed 'Arena,' designed to function like prediction markets such as Polymarket and Kalshi. Initially, it will likely use a points system, with the possibility of real-money wagering later. This move taps into the growing popularity of prediction markets, which have seen significant interest during the U.S. presidential election.

The company may be seeking to compete with Polymarket and Kalshi.

Mark Zuckerberg directed Meta to build a prediction market app called Arena that would compete with Polymarket and Kalshi, the New York Times reported.
