Polymarket IPO gaining attention as the prediction market reportedly weighs a traditional stock market listing against launching a native blockchain token. According to Bloomberg, the company is considering both options amid rising investor interest, growing revenue, and expanding US operations. Neither option has been officially confirmed. The decision comes as Polymarket’s valuation has reportedly climbed above $20 billion, with further fundraising discussions said to be underway at approximately $21 billion. CEO Shayne Coplan has also discussed exploring an onchain asset with programmable utility, although the company has not announced a token launch or airdrop.
