What it means for prediction markets
- The 24 percent decline measures trading activity across the covered platforms, not a change in the implied probability of any sports outcome.
- Kalshi accounted for more than half of the reported total, making it the largest contributor in this snapshot.
- Polymarket US and Polymarket were reported separately. The summary provides no platform-level changes against the previous 24 hours, limiting conclusions about which venues drove the overall contraction.
