Polymarket Expands into Equities and Commodities Using Pyth Price Feeds for Automated Settlement

Polymarket, the world’s largest prediction market platform, has introduced markets tied to equities, commodities, and exchange-traded funds, using blockchain oracle provider Pyth Network as the resolution source to automatically settle daily contracts based on real-time price data.

The new offering includes daily up-or-down and closing price contracts for major equity indexes, commodities such as gold and oil, and more than a dozen US-listed stocks including Tesla, Nvidia, and Apple, with outcomes settled automatically based on Pyth’s aggregated price feeds.

Polymarket Launches Daily Price Contracts for Traditional Assets

The new Polymarket markets reset at the end of each trading session and rely on Pyth Pro, a data service that delivers real-time price data via WebSocket. Polymarket samples this data every second and publishes it as a live “price to beat” chart, giving traders continuous visibility into market movements relative to their positions.

The assets covered span major equity indices, commodities including gold, silver, WTI crude, and natural gas, and over a dozen single-name US equities ranging from mega-cap technology stocks to high-volatility names. By making Pyth the resolution layer, Polymarket is replacing manual or exchange-specific references with a standardized data source aggregated from trading firms and market makers.

Polymarket Product Lead Mustafa Aljadery stated that millions of dollars can hinge on a single price point, demanding absolute confidence in the source of truth, and that Pyth delivers that assurance, enabling Polymarket to expand into high-stakes financial markets.

Pyth Network Provides Institutional-Grade Data from Leading Trading Firms

Pyth’s data is contributed directly by the world’s leading trading firms, exchanges, market makers, and banks that actively set prices across global markets. Pyth Pro draws from publishers including Jump Trading, Blue Ocean, LMAX, and Jane Street. According to Pyth, its data has secured over $2.7 trillion in transaction volume across onchain protocols and offchain institutions.

Zug, Switzerland-based Pyth also launched a data interface called Pyth Terminal, where users can track live price feeds and the reference values used to settle markets on Polymarket. The interface allows traders to verify data quality firsthand.

The integration demonstrates Pyth’s cross-asset coverage and data quality in powering real-time pricing on one of the most visible platforms in the space. Additional assets and market types are expected to follow.

Oracle Networks Expand Beyond Crypto into Real-World Financial Infrastructure

Oracle networks, which bring offchain data such as prices, foreign exchange rates, and commodities onto blockchains, are expanding beyond crypto into financial, government, and prediction-based applications. Chainlink and Pyth Network were selected by US government agencies to publish economic data onchain, including GDP and inflation metrics, sending the PYTH token up more than 70% on the day and lifting its market capitalization past $1 billion.

The announcement comes as oracle providers are increasingly used to power prediction markets and real-world event data. In October 2025, RedStone integrated data from CFTC-regulated platform Kalshi across more than 110 blockchains. In January 2026, Chainlink announced it would roll out 24/5 price data for US equities and ETFs to crypto platforms, enabling trading, lending, and derivatives tied to tokenized stocks beyond standard market hours. In February, Ondo Finance integrated Chainlink as the data provider for tokenized US equities on its Ondo Global Markets platform.

Data from DeFiLlama shows a highly concentrated oracle market, with Chainlink accounting for approximately 64% of total value secured, while other providers including RedStone and Pyth Network hold smaller shares at around 5% each.

ICE Completes $600 Million Investment in Polymarket

Last week, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, completed a $600 million cash investment in Polymarket and plans to acquire up to an additional $40 million in shares from existing holders as part of a broader multibillion-dollar commitment to the platform.

Polymarket allows users to take positions on outcomes of real-world events including sports, elections, financial markets, and weather, with contracts resolving based on whether specific conditions are met. The expansion into equities and commodities marks a significant step beyond the platform’s historical focus on political and crypto event contracts.
