Sleeping trough: Gate directly integrated Polymarket into the app and became the first CEX to integrate it!? Predicting the market has been popular for so long, essentially because people are enthusiastic about betting on what will happen in the future world with real money, For example, what everyone has been guessing these days is whether the US Iran situation will continue to escalate, how much market value a new project will be worth after it goes online, and even many macro, policy, election, and ETF results can be traded in advance. But for such a long time, trading and forecasting have actually been in a separate state, because the price of speculative markets is the pricing of attention, and the price of predictive markets is the pricing of consensus probability. The former deals with emotions, liquidity, and poor expectations; The latter deals with whether this will happen or not. But if these two markets start to merge, in the future we may not just trade assets in CEX, but what will happen in the trading world, which is a bit damn interesting. So from this perspective, the integration of Gate into Polymarket may catalyze some kind of change, and it is equivalent to using spot USDT to do it directly without any on chain operations, simplifying the threshold for predicting the market: one ️⃣ Prediction mode: Probability+odds are clear at a glance, and beginners can quickly understand market expectations. two ️⃣ Trading mode: Complete order book, K-line chart, market/limit order, professional brother directly plays as a derivative. In the past, when playing prediction, we needed to: read news → read Twitter → read research reports → make our own judgments → then trade. Now it may become: directly observing price changes in the probability market → direct trading. So this link has been shortened: information → probability → price → transaction. The intermediate links have been compressed, directly from information to transaction execution. Moreover, assets are connected to spot accounts, and settlement allows for one click withdrawal of USDT, with unified view of positions, This direction may be an interesting innovation recently, update the app to play it!
