Polymarket, the prediction market platform, is currently evaluating two strategic paths: a traditional IPO or the launch of a native token. The company, valued at over $20 billion according to negotiations in August 2026, raised funds from Intercontinental Exchange in 2025 and saw its valuation grow to approximately $15 billion by April 2026.

CEO Shayne Coplan mentioned exploring an onchain asset with programmable utility, without specifying a timeline or confirming any token or airdrop plans.
