Sports dominate prediction-market turnover as Baltimore against Buffalo leads

DeFi Rate's top 50 markets list shows sports holding 27 of the 50 most-traded markets, accounting for 35 million dollars of the 50 million dollars traded in 24 hours across Kalshi, Polymarket US, Polymarket and Gemini. Baltimore against Buffalo led the list at 5.4 million dollars in 24 hours, followed by Minnesota against Detroit at 4.3 million dollars.

Sports accounted for 27 of the 50 most-traded prediction markets in DeFi Rate’s ranking, generating $35 million of the $50 million traded over 24 hours, according to the outlet.

The list covered markets across Kalshi, Polymarket US, Polymarket and Gemini. The figures were reported on Nov 2, 2026, at 2:00 AM ET.

Football matchups lead the ranking

Baltimore against Buffalo ranked first with $5.4 million in 24-hour trading volume, according to DeFi Rate. Minnesota against Detroit followed with $4.3 million.

Sports therefore represented more than half of the markets on the list and an even larger share of its turnover. That concentration is specific to the top 50 ranking and the reported 24-hour window, rather than a measure of all prediction-market activity.

What it means for prediction markets

  • Sports drove the ranked activity: The category held 27 of the 50 spots and attracted $35 million of the list’s $50 million in volume.
  • Two matchups stood out: Baltimore against Buffalo and Minnesota against Detroit led the ranking, with $5.4 million and $4.3 million traded, respectively.
  • Scope matters: The figures describe a 24-hour snapshot across four platforms; they do not establish a longer-term trend or show how turnover was divided among those platforms.
