Polymarket has entered a partnership with Dow Jones to provide prediction market data on The Wall Street Journal, Barron's, MarketWatch and Investor's Business Daily, among others, Cointelegraph reported on Jan. 7.
Dow Jones CEO Almar Latour said it was a decision aimed at helping customers better interpret market sentiment and assess risk. Shane Coplan, Polymarket's founder and CEO, said the collaboration would combine journalism's insight with real-time market probabilities.
Since its founding in 2020, Polymarket has competed with Kalshi and established itself as a major prediction market platform. It drew attention for predicting Donald Trump's election as U.S. president in the 2024 election. Other cryptocurrency companies are also showing interest in prediction markets, and Coinbase last year announced an on-chain prediction market in partnership with Kalshi.
