#Bloomberg will add Polymarket’s #election odds to its Terminal service, according to an August 29 update from Michael McDonough, Bloomberg’s chief economist.
This move underscores the rising role of prediction markets and Web3 technologies in traditional finance.
Polymarket, built on the Polygon blockchain, allows bets on various events and has seen August trading volumes near $450 million. Bloomberg’s Terminal will now feature Polymarket’s odds for the US presidential election, alongside other data sources like PredictIt.
Currently, nearly $760 million has been bet on the November 4 election, with Polymarket showing Donald Trump slightly ahead of Kamala Harris.
The platform faces competition from Drift Protocol’s BET platform, which recently surpassed Polymarket in daily trading volume. In August, Polymarket users accurately predicted that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would exit the presidential race before September 2024.

As the Presidential #election draws nearer, JD Vance has agreed to an October 1 debate with his Democratic rival Tim Walz.
The electioneering campaign in the United States is growing tougher with JD Vance, the VP Candidate running along Donald Trump agreeing to debate Kamala Harris’ Tim Walz. The conversations around the debate has been going on for a while. However, the latest update from the Republican VP Candidate affirms the schedule for both parties.
The JD Vance and Tim Walz Battle
As both rivals confirmed via their official X accounts, the debate will take place on October 1. The Trump’s running mate said he is not only agreeing to the October 1 showdown, he said he’s also looking forward to the September 18th debate as well.
Debates are not unheard of during election cycles, although they could bring a lot of controversies. In this case, Americans are yearning to hear their preferred candidates speak. The Kamala Harris’ camp are notably somewhat unwelcoming to debates according to critics. However, the conversation has started changing in recent times. Earlier this month, both US Presidential candidates agreed to a debate schedule, setting the tone for the post from JD Vance.
When Donald Trump Jr first challenged Kamala Harris to a debate on FOX News, the request met with a rejection. Beyond the president’s son, the Republican candidate questioned whether his Democrats opponent would accept any extended debate invitation or not. In his opinion, declining to attend would reflect her poor courage.
Noteworthy, Kamala Harris’s response was not an outright rejection. She suggested that the debate hold in some other place. Precisely, her campaign team noted that she preferred the initial arrangement at ABC News.
Democrats’ Latest Crypto Stance Raise Concerns
For now, Walz is looking forward to the debate as he has confirmed his attendance. The speculations now centers around the potential subject of the debate. With Trump and Harris, crypto is a major contention and this could happen with their running mates as well.
While nothing is known of Tim Walz per his crypto stance, JD Vance is an hardcore Bitcoin proponent. Some report has it that he has held BTC since 2021.
Americans are quite concerned about crypto under Kamala Harris’s leadership. Now that she is beginning to suggest that she is pro-crypto, Democrat voters are also getting curious. In a poll conducted from July 25 to August 1, 804 individuals who identified as Democrats showed concerns on the party’s crypto stance.
