Why buy Kalshi & Polymarket data here
Four things every page on this site is built on — and the reason the numbers above exist at all.
We record everything
The complete public feed of each venue as it was published: every Level-2 snapshot and update at the venue's full book depth, every trade with its aggressor side, every quote, funding, mark-price and liquidation event — for every instrument the venue lists, every UTC day since we added the venue. Nothing sampled, no top-N cut, no on-demand capture.
Institutional grade
Captured co-located at the venue with the exchange timestamp and our receive timestamp in integer nanoseconds, an event-id chain that makes any gap visible, and one normalized schema across 35+ venues — the same capture our own high-frequency trading engine and enterprise feeds run on.
€1 per instrument-day
Any instrument-day is €1, series-day bundles start at €1 — no subscription, no minimum order, no tiers to unlock. Credit packs lower the effective price and never expire, and every venue has free full-day samples to test against first.
Self-service for everyone
Pick the days in the Data Shop, pay by card as a guest and download immediately — no sales call, no enterprise contract, no KYC. Coding agents buy the same files through the MCP server, and the free Agent Skill teaches them the format.
Most traded prediction markets — FAQ
Which prediction markets are traded the most?
Over the 30 days to 2026-09-22 the most traded series was Kalshi BTC Up/Down 15m with $3.0B of USD turnover over 77,392,265 trades; over 90 days Kalshi BTC Up/Down 15m leads at $4.5B; since our statistics began on 2026-07-08 it is Kalshi BTC Up/Down 15m at $4.5B. Ranked here by USD turnover over the 30 days to 2026-09-22, across both venues and per venue — the tables on this page are the ranking, computed from every trade print of every contract in our own capture. They update daily.
How are trades and turnover counted?
From the recorded tick data: every trade print of every contract of a series on a UTC day, turnover as price × size in USD (contracts quote 0..1). Series without statistics in the window are omitted, never shown as zero. Per-day statistics exist from July 2026 onward for the launch series and from a series' first captured day after that — a limit of the statistics, not of the capture: the tick files themselves reach back to each series' first recorded day.
What are the "biggest moves"?
Live contracts whose price moved the most over the last 24 hours, from the free analytics — settled or near-settled contracts (price ≤0.03 or ≥0.97) are excluded so resolution jumps do not dominate. It refreshes every few minutes and is not part of the archive itself.
Can I download the data behind this leaderboard?
Yes — every row links to the series page; day bundles (all contracts of the series for one UTC day, tick-level trades and order books) are bought in the shop, €1 per day.
Do I need an account or a sales call?
No. Pick the series-days in the Data Shop, pay by card as a guest and download immediately — no subscription, no minimum order, no KYC, no enterprise contract, no sales call. Coding agents buy the same bundles through the MCP server.
