Why the models rank Kalshi — on best prediction market platform

Why the models rank Polymarket — on best prediction market platform
“Deepest liquidity and tightest spreads of any prediction market by a wide margin, with the broadest event coverage (politics, geopolitics, crypto, sports, science) and a genuine order book on Polygon with no trading fees; its 2025 acquisition of CFTC-licensed QCEX opened a regulated path back to US users, removing its biggest historical caveat. Assumption: the typical practitioner wants real-money trading with enough depth to enter and exit meaningful positions.”
