Polymarket Quietly Relaunches in U.S. Polymarket has reopened to U.S. users in beta with sports markets and CFTC oversight, setting the stage for a full return and future token launch.

Decentralized prediction market firm Polymarket has quietly relaunched in the U.S. in beta mode after a nearly four-year absence due to regulatory issues with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Bloomberg reported on Wednesday.
The relaunch reportedly started with limited user access focusing initially on sports-related markets, including athletic events and spreads, ahead of a full-scale reopening.
Polymarket has been self-certifying its event contracts through its Designated Contract Market (DCM) license, a regulatory process that allows it to list new markets unless the CFTC objects within one business day.

This return follows a $1.4 million fine and settlement in 2022 for operating an unregistered derivatives exchange and a subsequent ban on U.S. access. The firm’s acquisition of CFTC-licensed exchange and clearinghouse QCX earlier this year paved the way for its re-entry into the U.S. market.
The company also plans to launch a native token and airdrop future tokens to users after establishing its U.S. presence.
Additionally, Polymarket is now integrating its real‑money prediction odds directly into Yahoo Finance to bring betting-style forecasts into mainstream financial tools.
