What the partnership does
nGRND Gold Protocol and Predictfully announced a strategic partnership on 17 September 2026, designed to connect sports fan engagement with the nGRND Gold Protocol Staking & Rewards Ecosystem. Both platforms are built around a shared idea: participation should have value.
Predictfully is a free-to-play sports fan engagement platform. Fans make predictions about matches, moments and player performances, play games and puzzles, earn points and climb leaderboards to compete for rewards. There is no financial stake, no odds and no house.
The nGRND Gold Protocol takes a similarly participation-driven approach to Web3. Through its Staking & Rewards Ecosystem, NGRND token holders can participate across eight Participation Streams, in an ecosystem designed to recognise and reward active engagement rather than simply passive token ownership.
Making Web3 easier for sports fans
For Predictfully users, the partnership is intended to provide a natural pathway into the nGRND Gold Protocol Staking & Rewards Ecosystem through something millions of people already understand: sports.
Fans can sign up using email or social login, make predictions and earn points without needing to understand wallets, seed phrases or blockchain technology. The underlying technology works in the background. Predictions span football, basketball, American football, racing, rugby, boxing and cricket; correct predictions can earn points, early predictions and streaks can generate additional points, and weekly leaderboards provide opportunities to earn prizes funded by clubs and sponsors.
Through the nGRND.io relationship, this type of active sports participation is intended to become part of a broader Web3 rewards experience.
More ways for Participants to engage
For the nGRND Gold Protocol Staking & Rewards Ecosystem, Predictfully introduces another way for Participants to engage. Rather than participation being limited to traditional crypto activities, nGRND is building an ecosystem where everyday activities can create engagement opportunities across its eight Participation Streams — and sports prediction is a natural fit.
A Participant can follow the games and teams they already care about, test their knowledge, compete with other fans and take part in activities that can be incorporated into the broader nGRND Gold Protocol rewards experience.
Company-reported scale
Both companies shared participation figures with the announcement. These figures are company-reported, drawn from separate programmes and reporting periods; they are not audited and should not be merged into a single series. Participation totals do not, by themselves, establish revenue, distributed rewards or unique individuals across programmes.
- 6,000+registered users reported by Predictfully since its free-to-play launch in Q3 2025
- 250,000on-chain transactions reported by Predictfully, whose platform is built on the Avalanche blockchain

What the companies said
“At the nGRND Gold Protocol, we believe the future of Web3 is not simply about owning a token — it is about what people can do with it and how they are rewarded for participating. Predictfully is a great example of the type of partner we want in the nGRND Gold Protocol Staking & Rewards Ecosystem. By bringing our communities together, we can introduce more people to Web3 through experiences they already understand and enjoy.”
— David Lucatch, Chair of nGRND
“Fans have always predicted. What they’ve never had is a way to be rewarded for it without a bookmaker taking a cut. Predictfully fixes that, and partnering with nGRND.io puts it in front of a community that already understands what it means to own something real.”
— Ben White, CEO of Predictfully
