Graph below is taker volume (NOT notional volume) for recent midweek NFL games at Kalshi/Poly (US + defi). Not a huge gap! A lot of the gap we are seeing between Kalshi and Poly/the field at the top line for sports is increasingly from combos.

Update: PolyFly successfully predicted the 25 bps rate hike. Profit: +22.65%. Time to retire.
We gave a fly $100 to trade on Polymarket. It already called today’s pump in the "25 bps increase" on Fed Decision polymarket. Every second, its next move is decided by 166,700 neurons.

Calling all crypto twitter. I'm proud to announce that Jacob Horne @js_horne has joined Polymarket. He will be working closely with me on product, in particular making Polymarket DeFi great again. Jacob is amongst the best product and innovation minds in crypto. Before this, he was CEO of Zora. He built multiple beautiful products (I was one of the first users of the first version in 2020). Now he's got the PMF and distribution of Polymarket. I'm so excited to work with him. We'll be hosting a Polymarket DeFi town hall soon to hear from our longtime users and lay out the plan to make the Polymarket DeFi product the best it’s ever been. In the meantime, DM your feedback to @js_horne or me and we'll action it. To the DeFi community, we know the performance of the onchain product has waned as we've scaled, and it hurts us to hear the frustration of the people who love Polymarket and have supported us for so long thinking we’ve pivoted all focus to US, but just know we're working behind the scenes to unify the products and make Polymarket better than ever, across all surface areas.

We have built our Polymarket indexing systems in-house, powered by rindexer in Rust. We now see onchain data events up to 14 blocks (28 seconds) faster, and we index within 0-10ms of block broadcasting, making it nearly instant. This means trades, positions, and balances will update much faster. We will use Goldsky as a data backup, but we now primarily run on our own indexing infrastructure.

Polymarket cracked App Store top three Not the finance category. The overall store. For fifteen years, consumer charts belonged to social feeds. You opened an app to read an opinion. Now the third most downloaded icon in America is a live order book. Every kickoff, election, and rate decision carries a price. The shift is structural. People stopped scrolling commentary. They started pricing the print. The book is becoming the default news interface.

Just a couple months out of beta, Polymarket is already at 43.8% of Kalshi’s football volume despite being live since just this summer. That’s including all the brokerage flow routed to Kalshi through Robinhood, Coinbase, PrizePicks, etc.
