The figures cover 48,012 markets across the 2,100 most active open Polymarket events. The report was published on Nov 4, 2026, at 2:30 PM ET.
Politics accounts for most trading
Politics and elections generated $83.18 million in 24-hour volume, representing 73 percent of the total, according to PolymarketTrader. That placed the category well ahead of the other categories identified in the summary.
Sports accounted for $22.06 million in turnover, while crypto contributed $2.99 million. The reported activity therefore shows a strong concentration in politics and elections rather than an even distribution across those categories.
What it means for prediction markets
- Political markets dominate this snapshot: Politics and elections accounted for 73 percent of reported 24-hour volume, making them the principal source of trading activity.
- Coverage has a defined scope: The statistics span 48,012 markets within the 2,100 most active open events; they should be read with that selection in mind.
- Activity is not an outcome signal: The supplied figures describe volume and open interest, but provide no individual contract prices or changes in implied probabilities.
