Jupiter Launches Built-In Prediction Feature via Polymarket

Solana-based decentralized exchange aggregator Jupiter is making a strategic push beyond token swaps and positioning itself as a central hub for prediction markets through a new integration with Polymarket.

Jupiter announced in a post on X that it has integrated the world’s largest decentralized prediction market, Polymarket, directly into its platform, launching a built-in “Prediction” feature with the Jupiter app. The update allows users to trade polymarkets event based contracts directly with Jupiter, marking a significant step in expanding Solana’s DeFi use cases beyond traditional spot trading.

“Integrating Polymarket is primed for making Jupiter the most innovative predictions platform on Solana,” the exchange said by highlighting its ambition to become a one-stop destination for onchain trading and event-based prediction markets.  

Jupiter expands beyond swaps

The move signals a broader shift in Jupiter’s strategy. Long known as Solana’s leading DEX aggregator jupiter is now developing into multi-product DeFi platforms, blending liquidity aggregation with emerging financial primitives like prediction markets.

The integration removes the need for stablecoin bridging or switching between multiple apps, streamlining the user experience.

This approach positions Jupiter as a gateway for users looking to speculate on real-world outcomes using blockchain-based markets without difficulty. Jupiter co-founder Meow revealed that “Jupiter Predict” will be a core focus for 2026, with plans to launch robust prediction market APIs and advanced market discovery tools.

Golden Age of Prediction Market

The partnership comes as prediction markets enter a “golden age” of volume and mainstream adoption. In January 2026 alone, Polymarket recorded $7.66 billion in trading volume, while its rival Kalshi saw $9.16 billion.

This momentum is being mirrored across the industry:

• Coinbase recently rolled out Kalshi-powered prediction markets to users in all 50 U.S. states.
• Polymarket secured an exclusive, multi-year sports licensing agreement with Major League Soccer (MLS) last month.

With a Total Value Locked (TVL) of approximately $2.35 billion and annualized protocol revenue nearing $150 million, Jupiter is leveraging its massive footprint to turn prediction markets into a core pillar of the Solana DeFi ecosystem.

Solana’s role in event-based trading

The integration also underscores Solana’s growing appeal for high-frequency and event-driven markets. With low transition fees and fast settlement time, the network offers a technical advantage for prediction markets that require rapid price updates and frequent traders. 

Jupiter’s Polymarket integration highlights how DeFi native platforms are racing to capture the expanding sector. Last week, The Crypto Times highlighted the growing regulatory uncertainty surrounding U.S. prediction markets. The CFTC is resetting its regulatory to prediction markets, aiming to create clearer federal rules for Polymarket and Kalshi platforms as the sector rapidly grows. 

The move comes amid rising legal clashes with states, increased trading volumes, and growing scrutiny from regulators and lawmakers as prediction markets expand into mainstream finance.
