Polymarket Launches Waitlist App in U.S. with Initial Focus on Sports Markets
Polymarket, the leading on-chain prediction platform, has begun rolling out its app to the U.S. market through a waitlist system. The initial offering centers on sports prediction markets, marking the platform's return after regulatory challenges in 2022.
The app debuted on the Apple Store with an Android version forthcoming. Early demand appears robust—the application garnered 29,000 reviews and a 4.9-star rating shortly after launch. This follows Polymarket's record trading volumes in October, demonstrating sustained growth despite regulatory hurdles.
While current events markets remain postponed, the platform's phased expansion strategy prioritizes sports predictions for its U.S. relaunch. The waiting list mechanism controls access during this limited beta phase, requiring users to download the existing app for enrollment.
