X Partners with Polymarket

Blockchain News

X, Elon Musk's social media platform, has partnered with Polymarket as its official prediction market partner, the companies announced on June 6, 2025.

Key Takeaways

  • X and Polymarket have formed an official partnership.
  • This collaboration aims to integrate transparent, market-based forecasting into mainstream use.
  • Previously, Musk's xAI partnered with Kalshi to provide AI-driven insights for prediction market users.

The Partnership

While specific details of the X and Polymarket collaboration remain undisclosed, both companies have expressed enthusiasm about the partnership's potential. Polymarket sees this as a significant step towards mainstream adoption of transparent, market-based forecasting.

"The future of news is optimized for truth, rooted in transparency, and anchored in reality," Polymarket stated on X.

Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan added, "The two top truth-seeking apps on the internet are stronger together. Welcome to News 2.0."

Background: xAI and Kalshi

This announcement follows a previous partnership between Musk's xAI and prediction market platform Kalshi. Bloomberg reported that this collaboration involves xAI using AI to analyze news and historical data, providing insights to Kalshi users betting on real-world events. The AI model, partly trained on X data, offers real-time context and trend analysis.

Both xAI and Kalshi plan to invest significant resources into developing their partnership.

Musk's Belief in Prediction Markets

Musk has consistently championed prediction markets, particularly Polymarket, as superior to traditional polls for gauging public sentiment. He believes that the financial stakes involved in these markets lead to more accurate reflection of real-world expectations.

In October 2024, Musk tweeted: "Trump [is] now leading Kamala by 3% in betting markets. More accurate than polls, as actual money is on the line."

This belief was further emphasized during a Trump campaign rally.
