🚨 Wow: Gate directly integrates Polymarket into the App to become the first CEX to access it!?

Prediction markets have been popular for so long, essentially allowing people to bet real money on future events in the world,

such as what people have been guessing these days: will the US-Iran situation continue to escalate, how much market value a new project will have after launch, and many macro, policy, election, and ETF outcomes can actually be traded in advance.

However, for such a long time, trading and prediction have always been separate, because the prices in speculative markets are priced on attention, while prices in prediction markets are priced on consensus probabilities.

The former trades emotions, liquidity, and expectation differences; the latter trades “whether this thing will happen or not.”

But if these two markets start to merge, then in the future we might not just be trading assets on CEX, but also trading what happens in the world, which is kind of interesting.

So, from this perspective, Gate's access to Polymarket may catalyze a certain change, and it means you can directly trade using spot USDT without any on-chain operations, simplifying the entry barrier for prediction markets:

1️⃣ Prediction mode: probabilities + odds are clear at a glance, making it easy for beginners to understand market expectations.

2️⃣ Trading mode: complete order book, candlestick charts, market/limit orders, allowing professionals to directly play derivatives.

In the past, when playing predictions we needed: check news → check Twitter → check research reports → make our own judgments → then trade.

Now it might change to: directly observe price changes in the probability market → trade directly.

Thus, this process is shortened: information → probability → price → transaction, with the intermediate links compressed, going directly from information to transaction execution, and asset accounts are connected to spot accounts, allowing for one-click USDT settlement and unified position visibility,

this direction might be a relatively interesting innovation recently, so update the App and give it a try!
