Polymarket Airdrop confirmed with $POLY token launch. Details on eligibility, timing, and market impact.
Polymarket, the leading decentralised prediction market confirms the launch of its native $POLY token, and an associated airdrop.
The $POLY Token and Airdrop Details
Polymarket’s Chief Marketing Officer, Matthew Modabber, unveiled the plans during an interview on the Degenz Live podcast. Modabber emphasised that $POLY is designed for long-term utility rather than short-term speculative gains. The token launch is part of the relaunch of Polymarket’s U.S. app, pending final regulatory approvals.

The airdrop aims to reward early and genuine users, with eligibility based on significant trading activity, longevity, and organic participation. Anti-sybil measures will exclude fake accounts. Speculation suggests that 5-15% of the total $POLY supply could be dedicated to the airdrop, potentially making it one of the largest in crypto history.
Polymarket Airdrop – Timing and Market Impact
A retroactive snapshot is believed to have already occurred, with the airdrop expected to roll out 4-6 months post-token launch in 2026. Preferences may be given to verified users and those active in markets like elections or sports.
Platform activity has surged lately. Daily active users have risen from about 20,000 to nearly 58,000, with cumulative trading volume exceeding $18 billion.
Funding and Future Prospects
In addition to the token launch, Polymarket is reportedly exploring a new funding round that could value the company at up to $15 billion, according to Bloomberg.
