Building on Chainlink’s support for over $11 billion in trading volume, Polymarket is now expanding its 15-minute markets to include commodities, stocks, and forex.

New York, October 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global prediction market Polymarket announced it has deepened its strategic partnership with Chainlink, the leading on-chain financial standards provider, making Chainlink its official oracle for its high-speed up/down markets. As the platform expands beyond crypto assets to include the world’s most actively traded stocks, commodities, and forex instruments, the 15-minute gold and silver markets are now live on Polymarket.

This partnership builds upon the existing collaboration between Polymarket and Chainlink. Both parties stated that Chainlink has previously enabled over $11 billion in trading volume for 5-minute and 15-minute crypto price markets. Polymarket noted that, leveraging Chainlink’s industry-standard decentralized oracle infrastructure—which has proven its security and reliability during extreme market volatility, blockchain network congestion, and major cloud infrastructure outages—Chainlink delivers fast and accurate pricing data to Polymarket at all times through Data Streams and the Chainlink Runtime Environment.

Polymarket traders are among the most globally connected individuals. With Chainlink’s 24/7 service, they can now take positions around the clock in an expanding range of stocks, commodities, and forex markets. Chainlink provides us with reliable, high-speed data that enables us to launch new markets at scale and gives users confidence that these markets will be settled accurately.” — Neal Kumar, Chief Legal Officer of Polymarket

Polymarket states that its market makers and algorithmic traders can now self-service access the same low-latency Chainlink Data Streams that power these markets, enabling them to immediately obtain accurate pricing data when new markets launch. The company says that with its ecosystem of market participants now ready, Polymarket can now scale the launch of new products as it expands into additional asset classes.

Prediction markets have become one of the most powerful ways to forecast the outcomes of global events, and Polymarket is the leading platform in this category. We are excited to see Polymarket expand into traditional assets with Chainlink as its official oracle infrastructure. Our high-speed pricing data enables Polymarket to settle these markets with the accuracy and efficiency users expect.” — Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs
