Polymarket has acquired QCEX, a CFTC-regulated exchange and clearinghouse, for $112 million. This paves the way for us to welcome American traders again. I've waited a long time to say this: Polymarket is coming home 🇺🇸🦅

8 months ago, on election night, we were on top of the world after Polymarket called the election. 8 days later, the FBI broke down my door at 6am and took all my computers and phones, looking for anything that could imply foul play. While traumatic, it etched the story of Polymarket's accuracy, and the ensuing resistance, into the history of American politics. And today, I'm happy to announce that this chapter of the story is over. After cooperating and engaging, we've been cleared of any wrongdoing. Justice prevailed. God Bless America 🇺🇸

Some stats from yesterday: - 20M website views - >$300M volume - ~1M concurrent users across web + app at peak When I joined @Polymarket years ago, many had written off prediction markets entirely. We held a different view. To us they seemed obvious, especially at a time when the ideal substrate - blockchains - were maturing. The last few years has had its ups and downs and it was 1000x harder than I thought it would be. As Paul Graham says "marketplaces are so hard to get rolling that you should expect to take heroic measure". Our team persevered and worked our asses off solving challenge after challenge to realize the vision. The results speak for themselves. Many now write off prediction markets as an election-only phenomenon which will again be proven wrong. Event trading and the truth engine it creates is here to stay and @Polymarket will be at the center pushing it forward. Lots of work still to do.

Last night, Polymarket proved the wisdom of markets over the polls, the media, and the pundits. Polymarket consistently and accurately forecasted outcomes well ahead of all three, demonstrating the power of high volume, deeply liquid prediction markets like those pioneered by Polymarket. We are proud to have delivered high quality, transparent data to everyone across the globe and ahead of everyone else. We are just at the beginning of building a generational platform that demystifies the events that matter most to people around the world. We thank our visitors and traders for believing in our vision and being a part of the journey. We commend both campaigns for a passionate and hard fought campaign and congratulate President Trump and Vice President-elect Vance on their victory.

Given the latest New York Times article on Polymarket, this seems like a good time to make clear: • Polymarket is strictly non-partisan. We get told we're Dem operatives and MAGA, depending on the day. Unfortunately the story is much less juicy, we're just market nerds who think prediction markets provide the public with a much needed alternative data source. It's naturally a fit in a world where there are infinite opinions being served to you algorithmically based on what you already think, designed only to keep you engaged and push you further into an echo chamber. If just one thing, Polymarket is a reality check. • Polymarket is not about politics. The vision never was to be a political website, and it still isn't. From launch day, the goal has been to, "harness the power of free markets to demystify the real world events that matter most to you." This US election cycle, we've been pulled onto center stage, as people are fed up with having to make sense of 'For You' feeds, pundits, and incongruent polls - we take that responsibility seriously. Polymarket's rise in popularity correlates with correctly forecasting Biden dropping out - it was the one source that called it. Hopefully politics is the first step to get the masses to realize the value of market-based forecasts. • It's crazy I have to say this, but it's time to put the "Thiel-controlled" narrative to rest. He has no direct contact or control with the company. Founders Fund, one of the most active VC funds (Airbnb, Stripe, etc.), and one of our 50+ investors, has a minority stake in the company with no board seat/control - and the partner who did the Polymarket deal isn't even Thiel. His politics have no bearing on how Polymarket works, operates, or what the prices are - end of story. The beauty of Polymarket is it's all peer-to-peer and transparent. Even more transparent than traditional finance, where all the data is obfuscated and only visible to the operator. That's why everyone is able to audit all the usage - which is a good thing for free markets. A feature, not a bug. The market sets the price, not the operator. There is no "house" setting the odds. It's the invisible hand, not the thumb on the scale. The idea is if people disagree with the market price, they have the opportunity to capitalize by buying the side they think is priced too low. As these markets get more popular, liquid, and accessible, we foresee a world where markets guide decision making, and opinions are backed by capital. The downstream effect is an information landscape with less sensationalism and more truth. Onwards

The Bloomberg Terminal has now integrated Polymarket. Entering mainstream news and finance before our eyes. What once was a fringe, sci-fi idea for transforming the flow of information is now becoming the new normal, as 10s of millions of people build habit around relying on Polymarket forecasts as a source of truth, to make sense of what’s going on in the world. And it’s still early.

Though the numbers have been bouncing around a lot for the past couple hours. High volumes so a lot of strong opinions out there!
