Financial Tools Meet Real-Time Social Conversation
Since its launch in 2020, Polymarket has established itself as one of the world’s leading prediction markets, with over $8 billion in trading volume during 2024 and even higher numbers so far in 2025. Its platform lets users anticipate outcomes of political events, cultural trends, and sports results, with market prices that reflect collective expectations in real time.
Elon Musk has introduced several financial tools within X, but this deal with Polymarket marks the first direct step into integrated prediction markets.
