Kalshi dominates November 6 trading as prediction-market volume reaches $1.45 billion
DeFi Rate's volume tracker puts Kalshi well ahead of every other venue in its November 6 intraday tally, with DraftKings Predictions at 65 million dollars, Polymarket at 41 million dollars and Polymarket US at 26 million dollars. The full November 5 day closed at 4.74 billion dollars across venues.
Prediction markets recorded $1.45 billion in trading volume so far on November 6, 2026, with Kalshi accounting for $1.29 billion, according to DeFi Rate’s volume tracker. The figures were reported at 1:00 PM ET and represent an intraday tally, not a completed session.
Kalshi leads the venue breakdown
Kalshi stood well ahead of every other venue in the November 6 snapshot, according to DeFi Rate. DraftKings Predictions recorded $65 million in volume.
The tracker listed Polymarket at $41 million and Polymarket US separately at $26 million. Those figures put DraftKings Predictions ahead of both Polymarket entries in the reported tally.
Prior day provides a full-session benchmark
Across venues, trading volume for the full November 5 day totaled $4.74 billion, according to DeFi Rate. That completed-day figure provides context for November 6 activity, but the two totals cover different lengths of time.
The available figures establish Kalshi’s lead in reported turnover at the snapshot. They do not include individual contract prices or a breakdown of which events generated the trading.
What it means for prediction markets
- Volume was concentrated at Kalshi: Its $1.29 billion accounted for most of the $1.45 billion recorded across venues so far on November 6.
- The day-over-day comparison remains incomplete: November 6’s intraday total should not be treated as a final daily result against November 5’s $4.74 billion.
- Turnover does not establish market direction: Without contract-level prices or event data, the tally does not show how implied probabilities changed.
