Polymarket launches $50 sign‑up bonus for MLB prediction markets

Polymarket, a decentralized prediction‑market platform, is offering a $50 trading bonus to new users who deposit at least $20. The promotion is limited to residents of eligible U.S. states and applies to contracts on Major League Baseball games, including matchups such as the Chicago Cubs versus the San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers versus the Los Angeles Angels.

Users can purchase "Yes" or "No" shares on specific game outcomes; each share settles at $1 if correct or $0 if not. The bonus funds are credited immediately after the qualifying deposit, giving traders capital to speculate on in‑game developments, pitcher changes, and other real‑time events. Polymarket states the service is also accessible in many other countries where prediction markets are legal, but U.S. participants must comply with local commodity‑trading regulations.
