Polymarket Gears Up for $10 Billion Funding Round

WallStreetBets

Prediction market platform Polymarket is reportedly seeking new funding that could significantly increase its valuation, potentially reaching as high as $10 billion.

This surge in investor interest comes as the company prepares for a potential relaunch in the U.S. While Polymarket was valued at $1 billion in its last funding round earlier this summer, sources close to the matter suggest its valuation is now expected to at least triple, with one investor reportedly offering a term sheet at the $10 billion mark.

Prediction platform Polymarket could see its valuation soar to as high as $10 billion, fueled by growing investor interest in blockchain-based prediction markets.

This potential valuation is a significant jump from its last valuation of $1 billion in mid-2025. The fundraising coincides with Polymarket’s planned relaunch of U.S. operations, which were halted in January 2022 after the CFTC accused it of offering unregistered “event-based binary options.”

A change in CFTC leadership has paved the way for its domestic return, confirmed by founder Shayne Coplan on September 3. Polymarket’s resurgence has also drawn political attention, with 1789 Capital investing in the firm and Donald Trump Jr. joining its advisory board, a move that may bolster its regulatory standing.

Trump Jr. emphasized Polymarket’s role in allowing people to bet on real-world events, cutting through media and expert spin.
