However, following the developments of the last 1.5 years, growth has continued at full speed, with volume reaching approximately $65 billion. Now, sports markets have begun to drive the vast majority of that volume. While the politics sector maintained its current position, the crypto side managed to catch up to it. Time will tell what the future holds for us onchain
When i wrote this post, Polymarket’s total volume was around $10 billion. Politic markets were more dominant than both sports and crypto markets a trend that was evident not just in volume, but in open interest as well
The area that i think will see the biggest growth for 2025 is the Prediction Market side. I will talk about @Polymarket , the leader in this area. It was one of the biggest winners of 2024 without a doubt.
Polymarket is breaking out across every major metric:
• Open interest hit a new ATH of $14.05B (+338.9% over the last 10 months)

According to @paradigm data by @Polymarket , 17% of global risk appetite is currently directed toward war-centric scenarios. Our greatest hope is to see this pessimistic margin narrow and to wake up to a world where peace is finally priced in by the markets

Weekly Notional Volume on @Polymarket's recurring crypto prices markets has crossed $400M!
Over 75% of this is coming from BTC, 14% from Ethereum and SOL/XRP being around 5% each.
What other coins should Polymarket be looking at adding? 👀
Polymarket is in full stride, hitting new ATHs across the board and solidifying its spot as the industry leader. With platform value already smashing previous records, I’m curious to see what the benchmark will look like by 2026
With the US launch, Polymarket's usdc holdings and open position values will likely surpass their all-time highs from the election period. This time, however, the growth is expected to be more sustainable rather than a temporary spike like before
found a pretty major data bug
it turns out almost every major dashboard has been double-counting Polymarket volume (not related to wash trading)
this is because Polymarket's onchain data contains redundant representations of each trade. receipts ⬇️⬇️
