Polymarket becomes Yahoo Finance's exclusive prediction market partner, assisting investors in decision-making.

As prediction markets are increasingly valued by investors and tech giants, Polymarket has announced an exclusive partnership with Yahoo Finance, becoming the platform's sole data source for prediction markets. This collaboration closely follows the integration with Google Finance, symbolizing that prediction markets are spreading into the mainstream financial information sector.

Yahoo Finance has launched a prediction market section, combining real-time probabilities with financial news.

Polymarket pointed out on X that Yahoo Finance plans to launch the “Prediction Markets Hub (” in the coming months, showcasing probability data from Polymarket covering economic, political, and financial events.

The prediction probabilities for each market will be presented in conjunction with Yahoo's own news reports, stock prices, and expert analyses.

George Leimer, General Manager of Yahoo Finance, stated: “Prediction markets are an emerging and increasingly important financial domain, and we aim to provide investors with reliable data and context to help them make smarter decisions.”

Last week, Google Finance announced that it would integrate the prediction market data from Polymarket and Kalshi into its search results, allowing users to directly query market expectations for specific events.

Polymarket vs. Kalshi: The Struggle Between Billion-Dollar Valuations

Founded in 2020, Polymarket is a multi-chain prediction market that allows users to trade on real-world events such as political elections or cultural issues. Its competitor, Kalshi, was established in 2018 and is an event contract exchange regulated by the U.S. CFTC.

Recently, both companies have received significant funding support. Polymarket has been invested in by Intercontinental Exchange )ICE(, with a valuation of up to 15 billion dollars; on the other hand, Kalshi is valued at only 5 billion dollars. At the same time, Polymarket's executives have confirmed the launch of the POLY token and an airdrop plan, with plans to return to the US market by the end of the year.
