Winklevoss Twins' Gulfstream G500, tail N533WE, was tracked flying from Dothan Regional Airport in Alabama to Palm Beach International Airport on June 30, a 75-minute hop touching down just after 3 p.m. local time. The aircraft, registered to Spring Creek Aviation LLC and shared between Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, had been looping through the Southeast for several days after an earlier transcontinental leg from Teterboro.

If the Winklevoss Twins were aboard, they would arrive in Palm Beach the same month their crypto exchange Gemini secured a major regulatory victory. Per a CNBC report, the CFTC approved Gemini's Derivatives Clearing Organization license on April 29, allowing the company to clear and settle its own prediction market and futures trades in-house. That win came just weeks after the CFTC moved to vacate a $5 million Biden-era penalty against Gemini, as covered by Reuters, with the agency admitting the case should never have been filed. The twins also recently injected $100 million into Gemini via a Bitcoin-backed private placement, per Crypto Times.

The Palm Beach visit follows a pattern of travel between Gemini's operational bases and key financial hubs. The aircraft had previously shuttled between Teterboro, Chicago, and Dothan — a route that suggests ongoing institutional meetings or property moves. With Gemini's stock down 90% since its IPO and the exchange pivoting toward derivatives and prediction markets, a Florida stop could signal investor discussions or preparations for the company's planned equities trading expansion.
