Feb 24, 2021What is Polkamarkets?
Polkamarkets is an innovative platform at the crossroads of decentralized finance (DeFi) and prediction markets. It allows traders to leverage their knowledge and forecast real-world outcomes in a decentralized environment.
- Combines DeFi incentives with prediction markets
- Offers sports and esports markets with live event feeds

The Problem
Existing prediction markets face significant challenges such as low liquidity, insufficient market options, and a lack of active traders. In 2020, the average daily trading volume was under $1M USD.
- Low trading volumes hinder hedging and large positions
- Minimal liquidity results in low fees for providers
- Market instability due to few users and low volume
The Solution
Polkamarkets addresses these issues by incentivizing liquidity providers and traders. The platform uses DeFi strategies like liquidity mining and yield farming to boost market activity and reliability.
- Incentives for liquidity providers and traders
- Curation and resolution systems ensure market efficiency
- Rewards include $POLK tokens for opening prediction markets
