Blockchain Capital Partner: Polymarket's non-sports category transaction volume is 7.5 billion dollars, while Kalshi's year-on-year data is only 1.6 billion dollars

Blockchain Capital partner Spencer Bogart posted on X platform that the total transaction volume of Kalshi and Polymarket is nearly equal, both around $12 billion (the former at $12.29 billion and the latter at $12.22 billion). Excluding sports-related transactions, Polymarket's non-sports category transaction volume is $7.5 billion, while Kalshi is only $1.6 billion.

Despite the positioning differences between the two in the prediction market, it is strange that they are still classified in the same category.
