Polymarket advances breach repayments and compensation for trading halt losses
Polymarket said 689 of the 726 wallets affected by last week's breach on its international platform have been refunded in full, with the remaining 37 being paid as each is verified. It is also paying 1.19 million dollars to around 5,500 wallets to compensate traders who lost funds during its trading halt.
Polymarket said it has fully reimbursed 689 of the 726 wallets affected by last week's breach on its international platform, according to TradingView. Payments to the remaining 37 wallets are being made as each is verified.
Two groups receiving payments
The update, published Nov 2, 2026 at 12:15 AM ET, leaves a portion of the breach-related repayments dependent on verification. Most affected wallets have now received full refunds.
Separately, Polymarket is paying 1.19 million dollars to around 5,500 wallets to compensate traders who lost funds during its trading halt, according to TradingView.
The payments address two distinct consequences of the incident: losses associated with the breach and losses incurred during the pause in trading. The available summary does not specify when the remaining payments will be completed.
What it means for prediction markets
- Repayment progress: Full refunds have reached 689 affected wallets, while verification remains the outstanding step for the other 37.
- Trading interruptions matter: The compensation for around 5,500 wallets highlights that a trading halt can carry consequences beyond the wallets directly affected by a breach.
- Completion remains a watch point: The breach refunds and trading-halt compensation are separate payment efforts; the update does not establish that both are complete.
