According to DeFi Rate’s volume tracker, trading across nine venues reached $2.76B for the partial November 5 day. Kalshi accounted for $2.45B of that total.
The snapshot was published on Nov 5, 2026 · 2:24 PM ET. These figures describe activity recorded so far, rather than a completed day’s volume.
Volume concentrated at Kalshi
Polymarket US recorded $98M, while Polymarket recorded $97M, according to DeFi Rate. The two were close in reported volume, with both substantially below Kalshi.
The supplied summary does not identify the other six venues or provide their individual totals. It therefore offers a limited view of how activity was distributed outside the three named platforms.
What it means for prediction markets
- Kalshi accounted for most of the tracked volume, making venue concentration the clearest signal in this snapshot.
- Polymarket US and Polymarket had similar reported totals, but the figures alone do not establish comparable liquidity in individual markets.
- Because November 5 was still in progress, the $2.76B total and the venue breakdown should not be treated as final daily results.
