#Polymarket平台 I heard that prediction markets like Polymarket are going to become popular this year? 😍 I just saw that institutions are saying that the trading volume of prediction markets will significantly expand by 2026, possibly reaching hundreds of millions of dollars per week. What does that mean?
I just realized that prediction markets seem different from the regular trading I used to do? It seems to be used for predicting the outcomes of real events? Like elections, weather, sports events, and so on? It’s quite interesting, feels like turning "predicting the future" into a tradable product.
I read that changes in US tax policies might also boost this market, and Coinbase mentioned that prediction market aggregators could become the dominant interface layer... These terms sound a bit confusing, but overall, it feels like this sector is really about to usher in new opportunities in 2026?
Can any expert explain how to get started on Polymarket? Do you need a special wallet? Or is it operated just like a regular exchange? I want to study this trend before it takes off, worried I might miss out again! 😅
