Sports accounts for 47 percent of 24-hour volume and politics and elections for 38 percent, with crypto at 9 percent.
Polymarket recorded $76.95 million in trading volume over the last 24 hours and $307.40 million in open interest, according to PolymarketTrader’s November 2 update.
The figures cover 44,198 markets within the platform’s 2,100 most active open events. That scope matters: the snapshot describes this group of events, rather than explicitly measuring every market on Polymarket.
Sports and politics dominate volume
Sports accounted for 47 percent of 24-hour trading volume, according to PolymarketTrader. Politics and elections represented 38 percent, while crypto contributed 9 percent.
The breakdown places sports ahead of politics and elections in recent trading activity, with crypto a smaller contributor. It describes the distribution of volume, not the allocation of open interest among those categories.
What it means for prediction markets
- Sports and politics and elections account for the largest reported shares of recent activity in the tracked events.
- The $307.40 million open-interest figure and $76.95 million daily-volume figure measure different aspects of market activity; they should not be treated as interchangeable.
- The snapshot provides no earlier comparison, so it does not establish whether trading volume or open interest is rising or falling.
