X joins forces with Polymarket

Elon Musk's X announced on Friday it is "joining forces" with Polymarket as the official prediction market partner for the social media platform, which boasts over 600 million monthly active users.

The collaboration marks what could be the former Twitter's biggest move into crypto yet, signaling deeper integration with onchain applications.

Tech billionaire Musk previously praised the power of prediction markets — Polymarket in particular — during last year's U.S. presidential election, calling it more accurate than official polls.

"The next information age won't be driven by the 20th century's media monoliths, it'll be driven by markets," Polymarket said. "Our partnership with X marks a new chapter for truth on the internet. The future of news is optimized for truth, rooted in transparency, and anchored in reality."
