ChainCatcher report: Justin Slaughter, VP at Paradigm, posted on X that Paradigm has released its first-ever survey report on prediction markets. The results show that over one-third (approximately 36%) of U.S. voters have already used prediction markets—either by placing bets or browsing markets for information. Additionally, most Americans currently hold no clear stance on prediction markets. Even among the 95% of Americans who have heard of prediction markets, nearly half remain neutral (including prediction market users themselves). In terms of user demographics, 66% of prediction market users are under 50 years old, with 20% aged 18–34 and 27% aged 35–49. Non-white voters show slightly higher adoption rates than white voters, and men use prediction markets significantly more than women (46% vs. 31%).
