Kalshi leads the volume breakdown

Polymarket US followed with $135 million, while Polymarket recorded $117 million, according to DeFi Rate. The tally treated Polymarket US and Polymarket as separate venues.
Nine venues in the tally
The coverage included DraftKings Predictions, Gemini, Kalshi, Novig, Polymarket, Polymarket US, ProphetX, Rothera and Underdog Exchange. Individual volumes for the remaining six venues were not provided in the summary.
What it means for prediction markets
- The reported activity was heavily concentrated at Kalshi rather than evenly distributed across the nine venues.
- These are October 31 volumes so far, not final daily totals; comparisons should retain that timing distinction.
- The summary provides venue-level turnover, not contract prices or market-level liquidity, so it does not establish changes in implied probabilities or execution conditions.
