[Polymarket Bids Farewell to Zero-Fee Era, Will Impose Taker Fees on Almost All Trades] BlockBeats News, March 26: Prediction market platform Polymarket has announced a major policy adjustment. Starting from March 30, it will impose Taker fees on almost all categories of trades for the first time. The new fee structure adopts a variable rate, with peak fees for cryptocurrency-related contracts reaching as high as 1.8%. Actual fees will vary along a curve based on share prices and market dynamics. Categories such as sports, finance, politics, culture, weather, and general predictions will have lower tiered rates, while fees for mention-based and certain economic predictions will peak at approximately 1.5%. Notably, geopolitics is the only category completely exempt from fees, highlighting Polymarket's strategic focus on high-risk global events. This change marks the end of Polymarket's long-standing appeal of 'zero fees.'
