Bitget Wallet Opens Access to Polymarket, Bringing Prediction Markets to 90M Users

21-Apr-2026 Crypto Economy

TL;DR:

  • Bitget Wallet, with over 90 million users, integrated Polymarket so its clients can access prediction markets directly from their wallet.
  • Polymarket is looking to raise $400 million in a new funding round that would value the company at $15 billion.
  • Bernstein analysts project that prediction market volumes will scale from $51 billion in 2025 to $1 trillion by 2030.

Bitget Wallet announced that its more than 90 million users will be able to access Polymarket‘s prediction markets directly from its self-custodial wallet. This integration will bring onchain prediction infrastructure to a user base that until now operated primarily within the exchange ecosystem.

The integration brings prediction markets to Bitget Wallet’s decentralized interface, facilitating access to operations based on information tied to real-world events and market-moving developments. The company also announced the introduction of AI-powered sports event analysis to help users interpret market conditions more effectively.

Distribution as a Competitive Advantage

From Polymarket’s side, the partnership responds to a clear strategy of expanding its reach. Matthew Modabber, the platform’s chief marketing officer, noted that “as prediction markets evolve into core financial infrastructure, distribution becomes as important as the underlying market itself.” In that regard, he described Bitget Wallet as “a powerful entry point for a global user base.”

Polymarket competes directly with Kalshi, its main rival in regulated prediction markets. At the same time, according to The Information citing sources close to the matter, the company is seeking to raise $400 million in a new funding round that would value it at $15 billion.

Bitget Agrees on Initiatives with the NBA and FIFA

Sports events occupy a central place in the collaboration. Bitget confirmed joint initiatives tied to the NBA Playoffs and the FIFA World Cup. Users will be able to fund their accounts through Apple Pay and other digital payment methods, while gas abstraction will allow transactions to be executed across major EVM chains and Solana.

Sector projections are essential to understanding the rationale behind the partnership. Analysts at Bernstein estimate that prediction market volumes will grow from approximately $51 billion in 2025 to $1 trillion by 2030, making the competition for users a strategic variable of the highest order.
