What's Polymarket?
Polymarket is like a big guessing game where people predict future events, such as sports outcomes or political results. It exists to help people make informed decisions based on collective opinions. Imagine asking everyone in your neighborhood what they think will happen, and using that information to make better choices. Polymarket solves the problem of uncertainty by gathering diverse opinions and insights in one place.

Why do people buy Polymarket?
People buy Polymarket to participate in prediction markets, which can provide insights into public sentiment on various topics. It allows users to engage with real-world events and understand trends. Polymarket is adopted in ecosystems where collective intelligence is valued, offering a unique way to gauge opinions without focusing on financial gain.
Things to know before buying Polymarket in the United States
In the United States, cryptocurrencies like Polymarket are legal but regulated. Users must complete KYC and AML verification to comply with laws. Tax implications include reporting capital gains or losses, and income from activities like staking may be taxable. It's important to keep records for tax purposes and consult a tax professional for guidance.
What are other ways to own Polymarket?
Users can obtain Polymarket through airdrops, where tokens are distributed for free, or by participating in Learn-and-Earn programs that reward education. Staking or providing liquidity in certain networks may also yield Polymarket tokens. These methods require effort and understanding of the risks involved, such as market volatility and network participation requirements.
How can I store my Polymarket?
To prevent loss or theft, store Polymarket securely. Custodial wallets are easy to use but rely on third parties, while non-custodial wallets give you full control.
