Solana-based decentralized exchange Jupiter announced it will integrate Polymarket onto its platform for the first time. The move marks Polymarket’s initial expansion to the Solana blockchain.

The integration will include a built-in “Prediction” feature in Jupiter’s app. Users can access Polymarket contracts without leaving the Jupiter platform.

Jupiter’s pseudonymous co-founder meow said “Jupiter predict” will be a major focus over the next year. Planned work includes prediction market APIs and revamped market discovery tools.

The announcement came with a separate funding update. ParaFi Capital made a $35 million strategic investment in Jupiter’s JUP token.

Investment Details and Platform Growth

The investment deal will be settled entirely in JupUSD, Jupiter’s dollar-pegged token. ParaFi Capital committed to an extended token lockup as part of the arrangement.

Jupiter’s current footprint shows substantial growth. The platform holds about $2.35 billion in total value locked as of Monday.

Annualized fees stand near $650 million. Annualized protocol revenue sits around $150 million according to DefiLlama data.

Prediction Market Expansion

Polymarket has seen explosive growth over the past year. The platform offers markets spanning politics, macroeconomic events, sports, and culture.

In January 2026, Polymarket recorded $7.66 billion in trading volume. This represents an increase from $5.31 billion in December 2025.

Combined trading volumes across Polymarket and rival Kalshi reached tens of billions of dollars last year. Both platforms are on pace to set fresh records this year.

Kalshi’s volume rose to $9.16 billion in January from $6.58 billion in December. The growth reflects increased interest in event-driven trading.

Neither Jupiter nor Polymarket shared a timeline for the integration rollout. Details on custody, market access, and compliance considerations were not disclosed.

Jupiter’s messaging suggests prediction markets will become a core pillar of the platform. The feature will sit alongside swaps and other on-chain products in Jupiter’s growth strategy.

The integration positions Jupiter as a hub for prediction markets on Solana. It combines Jupiter’s existing trading infrastructure with Polymarket’s event-based markets.

Last month, Coinbase rolled out Kalshi-powered prediction markets to users in all 50 U.S. states. Polymarket also signed an exclusive, multi-year sports licensing agreement with Major League Soccer in January.
