No, I don't believe so. Such a feature would need to come from a fully decentralized platform, or one that doesn't operate (legally) in the US (or most of the world, for that matter).

Take a look at Azuro for an example of a decentralized betting protocol: https://azuro.org/

It's something we may consider in the future... there's a lot we'd need to figure out from a regulatory standpoint before we get there.
