Polymarket is an information markets platform that lets you trade on the world’s most highly-debated topics (e.g. coronavirus, politics, current events, etc). On Polymarket, you build a portfolio based on your forecasts and earn a return if you are right. When you decide to buy shares in a market, you are weighing in with your own knowledge, research, and view of the future. Market prices reflect what traders think are the odds of future events, turning trading activity into actionable insights that help people make better decisions. As a result, Polymarket is a leading source of unbiased and real-time data about future events.
Polymarket is built on the Polygon blockchain, which enables users to purchase and sell tokens without network fees.
USD Coin (USDC) is a type of cryptocurrency called a stablecoin. Since 1 USDC can be redeemed for exactly $1.00 USD, the price is always stable. Polymarket uses USDC for transaction speed, security, and transparency. You can purchase USDC directly on a centralized exchange like Coinbase, a debit/credit card on Polymarket for non-US residents, or a decentralized exchanged like Uniswap.
