Company Overview
Polymarket is a blockchain-based prediction market platform enabling users to trade outcome-based contracts tied to real-world events, with prices reflecting market-implied probabilities. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in New York City, the platform operates primarily on the Polygon blockchain, settling all markets in USDC to reduce transaction costs and volatility. Polymarket has become a widely cited reference point for market-based forecasting across politics, macroeconomic events, and global news. The company serves a global user base, with access restricted in certain jurisdictions due to regulatory constraints. Polymarket remains privately held and venture-backed, positioning itself at the intersection of crypto infrastructure, financial markets, and information forecasting.
The Problem
Traditional forecasting tools such as polls and expert panels are slow, episodic, and often biased. Real-time sentiment is fragmented across media, social platforms, and financial markets. Incentives in polling, punditry, and commentary are poorly aligned with accuracy. Many global events lack transparent, continuously updated probability signals. Historical regulatory barriers have constrained innovation in prediction markets.
The Solution
Outcome-based markets that aggregate crowd intelligence into price-driven probability signals. Real-time implied probabilities based on capital-weighted beliefs rather than opinions. USDC-denominated contracts to reduce volatility relative to native crypto tokens. Low-fee, high-throughput settlement via Polygon blockchain infrastructure. Transparent, publicly observable market data increasingly referenced by media and institutions. Defined oracle and adjudication processes to resolve events and settle markets.
Founding Team
Shayne Coplan – Founder & CEO; founder of Polymarket with background in product development and crypto startups; public spokesperson during regulatory proceedings. Team: Additional leadership and executive details are limited publicly disclosed at this time.
Business Model
Trading fees applied to market activity, varying by liquidity and transaction volume. No native token; all activity settled in USDC.
