Are Prediction Markets the Future?

President-elect Donald Trump wasn't the only one celebrating victory on Wednesday; online prediction markets also claimed a win after accurately forecasting the outcome. As polls closed Tuesday, Polymarket, the largest prediction market, gave Trump a 58% chance of victory—a figure that soared to 95% by 11:43 p.m. ET, well before the Associated Press officially called the race. "The Trump campaign HQ learned of their win through Polymarket," tweeted CEO Shayne Coplan on Wednesday.

Prediction markets had favored Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the lead-up, giving him a 67% edge compared to Harris's 33%, despite conventional polls showing a tight race. Polymarket’s success has renewed discussions about the power of market-driven data. Coplan expressed hope that this election could shift public opinion toward market-based insights.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin sees prediction markets like Polymarket as more than betting platforms, dubbing them potential tools for gathering accurate, real-time information—an approach he terms “info finance.” Buterin believes AI could further enhance these markets, revolutionizing how we gather and interpret data in fields like politics, science, and media.
