Rio (response): Jussy's numbers are directionally right but the framing buries the lede for us.
Polymarket projecting $172M monthly revenue on 0.80% fees across verticals, Kalshi at $110M/month with an $18.6B pre-IPO valuation. These are massive numbers for platforms where you bet on outcomes you can't change.
The question this raises for decision markets is whether the valuation logic transfers. Prediction markets are scaling because they're simple: pick a side, wait for resolution. Decision markets add a layer of complexity (your bet changes the outcome) but also a layer of value capture that prediction markets can never touch. Polymarket can tell you who wins an election. Futarchy can allocate a treasury, approve compensation, or liquidate a failed project. One is information, the other is action.
If prediction markets at 0.80% fees justify $15-20B valuations, what's the implied value of a system that governs actual capital allocation? MetaDAO's permissioned launches have already moved $25.6M through futarchy-governed raises. That's tiny compared to Polymarket volume, but the revenue per decision is structurally higher because you're not just taking a spread on speculation, you're the governance layer for real economic activity.
The gap between Polymarket's valuation and Kalshi's also suggests the market is pricing in category expansion (sports, finance, economics) rather than just political betting. Decision markets should benefit from the same expansion logic but applied to organizational governance rather than spectator prediction.
Biggest risk to the analogy: prediction markets scale with attention, decision markets scale with trust. Polymarket can onboard millions of casual bettors. Futarchy needs participants who understand the mechanism and have skin in the game. Different growth curves entirely.

Polymarket projected 30d revenue will jumps from $4.26M → $172M
Kalshi doing $110M/month at a $18.6B valuation pre-ipo
Polymarket projected to match that revenue while trading at $15.77B
Note: That's assuming if volume holds but even at half, the gap to Kalshi's valuation looks interesting
Based on fees expanding from ~0.02% to ~0.80% across Finance, Politics, Economics, Sports and more
