Polymarket Secures Exclusive MLS Prediction Market Partnership
Polymarket has inked a multi-year deal to become Major League Soccer's exclusive prediction market partner. The agreement grants the on-chain platform rights to offer real-time wagering on MLS Cup, All-Star Games, and conference championships through second-screen engagement features.
The partnership reflects a broader trend of sports leagues embracing crypto-native prediction markets. Polymarket will integrate collective sentiment tracking during live matches, creating new fan monetization avenues while avoiding traditional sportsbook models.
This marks another milestone in blockchain's encroachment into mainstream sports. The deal follows similar moves by FanDuel and DraftKings, though Polymarket distinguishes itself through decentralized infrastructure and crypto settlement.
