Polymarket reportedly plans to raise $400 million at a $15 billion valuation, with ICE already investing $600 million. Prediction markets boom as monthly volume exceeds $10B, but regulatory challenges persist.

预测市场平台Polymarket据报正与投资者洽谈新一轮融资,计划以150亿美元估值筹集4亿美元资金。据《The Information》周一报道,知情人士透露,此轮融资将延续近期大量机构资本涌入预测市场的趋势。

纽约证券交易所母公司洲际交易所(ICE)已于3月底向Polymarket投资6亿美元,而竞争对手平台Kalshi在最近一轮融资中估值约为220亿美元。《The Information》称,Polymarket正寻求在下一轮融资中引入除ICE之外的战略投资者,总融资规模可能达到10亿美元

预测市场爆发式增长

预测市场自2024年美国大选前后开始蓬勃发展,如今涵盖体育、政治选举、财务业绩及文化事件等各类市场的月交易量已稳定超过100亿美元。伴随这一增长,华尔街众多大型机构开始表现出浓厚兴趣。

今年3月初,纳斯达克旗下期权交易所Nasdaq MRX已提交申请,拟提供基于纳斯达克100指数的现金结算二元期权合约。芝加哥期权交易所全球市场(Cboe Global Markets)也计划推出类似预测市场的产品,而芝加哥商品交易所(CME Group)则与美国博彩公司FanDuel合作,让交易者能够对金融领域之外的市场进行押注。上周,传统金融公司Charles SchwabCitadel Securities均表示正考虑进军预测市场。

法律阴影未散

尽管预测市场活动激增,但Kalshi等平台仍面临监管机构的严格审查,涉及内幕交易和市场操纵指控。Kalshi目前正与内华达州博彩控制委员会进行法庭较量,该州下级法院此前暂时禁止Kalshi在该州运营。州监管机构认为,Kalshi的合约助长了无证赌博。Coinbase首席法律官Paul Grewal预测,此案可能一路打到美国最高法院,从而为预测市场和基于事件的衍生品的监管处理树立先例。

从市场影响看,机构资本的涌入将进一步加速预测市场的合法化进程与产品创新,但监管不确定性仍是悬在行业头顶的达摩克利斯之剑。Polymarket如果成功完成新一轮融资,将拥有更多弹药用于合规建设和市场拓展,而华尔街玩家的入局也可能改变预测市场的竞争格局。
