The product has now entered its public beta phase. Through this feature, users can directly participate in prediction trading across global events in sports, finance, and crypto. By purchasing Yes/No shares based on anticipated outcomes, users can earn returns upon event settlement, opening up a new way to capture market trends and potential opportunities.
As prediction markets continue to gain traction globally, more users are turning to event-driven trading to engage with major topics across sports, macroeconomics, and the crypto industry. By integrating Polymarket, Gate not only preserves its core trading functionality but also introduces a dual interaction structure that caters to different user needs. The prediction mode presents an intuitive interface featuring probability and odds, lowering the barrier to entry and helping users quickly grasp market expectations, while the trading mode offers order books, price charts, and full execution tools, enabling more experienced users to approach prediction markets in a way that resembles derivatives trading.
In terms of access, Gate supports both centralized exchange accounts and Web3 wallets. Users can directly log in to the Gate App using their Gate exchange account (updated to version 8.12.5 or above) and access the Polymarket module under the Alpha page. Users can participate in prediction trading using USDT in their spot account without any on-chain operations, ensuring a smooth and familiar trading experience and enabling them to quickly engage in the market. At the same time, users can also connect wallets to interact with Polymarket via the Polygon network, using USDC for trading and settlement, providing greater flexibility for those accustomed to decentralized environments.
Polymarket offers a broad range of event categories, including featured topics, sports, crypto, and finance, allowing users to quickly view probability trends, odds levels, and overall market sentiment. In addition, market prices reflect the probability of events in real time and automatically calculate the corresponding odds, helping users quickly understand potential returns and market expectations. So when a Yes share trades at 0.65, it indicates a roughly 65% likelihood assigned by the market. Users can choose to hold positions until settlement or actively trade in response to price movements, depending on their strategies.
For more advanced users, the platform provides detailed market data such as probability charts, candlestick charts, and order book depth, along with multiple order types including market and limit orders. To streamline execution, a quick trade feature allows users to place orders directly from the listing page without entering a separate trading interface. The platform also supports more diverse market structures, such as spread-based prediction markets in sports events, enabling users to forecast outcomes across different score ranges and enhancing both flexibility and depth.
On the asset management side, Gate integrates prediction market positions with spot accounts, allowing users to view USDT balances and positions within a unified interface while managing orders, holdings, and transaction history seamlessly. Once events are settled, users can claim their proceeds in a single action, with winning positions automatically converted into stablecoins at a one-to-one ratio and credited back to their spot accounts.
Overall, Gate's integration builds on the core mechanics of Polymarket while combining an exchange-level user base, full trading functionality, and AI-powered translation capabilities to create a more efficient and accessible prediction market environment. This approach lowers the barrier for everyday users to participate in global event trading, while also offering more sophisticated tools for professional traders seeking enhanced price discovery and strategy execution.
Looking ahead, Gate plans to continue expanding event categories and market structures, introducing more globally relevant topics and real-time data while further enhancing trading tools and liquidity. As event-driven trading continues to evolve, prediction markets are expected to grow beyond simple participation tools into key mechanisms for information discovery and market pricing, creating new opportunities across the digital asset ecosystem.
