Could Polymarket go live in the US market tomorrow?
The prediction market platform’s CFTC filings indicate the operator could go live from October 3.
Key Points
- Polymarket could go live in the US market on October 3
- A recent CFTC filing specifies that the exchange intends to list its products, but not before October 2
Polymarket could be making its grand return to the US stage as soon as October 3, as is indicated in one of its most recent Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) filings that the exchange “intends to list the product(s) no earlier than October 2, 2025.”
This would, indeed, indicate that Polymarket’s products are to be listed from tomorrow, with reports suggesting the very same pouring in from across the crypto sphere. It was announced a little under a month ago by Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan that the platform had received the green light from the CFTC to re-enter the US market, following its flamboyant removal from the nation at the hands of the commission in 2022.
The platform is now registered with the commission via the trading handle QCX LLC, following its acquisition of the previously CFTC-licensed derivatives exchange and clearing house holding company, QCEX, for $112m in July.
Good to know: Polymarket’s confirmation of re-entry into the US came within days of Donald Trump Jr joining the company as an adviser
Presently, visitors of the Polymarket site will see a message attached to the homepage which reads, “Polymarket will soon be available for US traders. We’re working hard to get the US platform ready for launch.”
Polymarket rose to prominence in 2024 for its role in the US Presidential election, which saw early support for Donald Trump displayed on its markets that ultimately proved to be reflective of the result. Since that time, the prediction market sector has exploded in the US, with state gambling regulators across the nation pushing back against the sector.
