Polymarket, the global prediction market platform, has deepened its strategic partnership with Chainlink, the standard for onchain finance, naming it the official oracle for high-speed up/down markets. The platform also announced that 15-minute gold and silver markets are now live, expanding its offerings beyond crypto and into the world's most widely traded assets across equities, commodities, and forex.

The announcement builds on Polymarket's existing partnership with Chainlink, which has driven more than $11 billion in trading volume around 5- and 15-minute crypto price markets. Up/down markets boil trading down to a single question — will an asset's price be higher or lower when a fixed window closes — which makes the oracle, the infrastructure layer that carries real-world price data onchain, the piece the entire format depends on for fair resolution. The up/down markets are built on Chainlink's industry-standard decentralized oracle infrastructure, which has proven secure and reliable through extreme market volatility, blockchain network congestion, and major cloud infrastructure outages. Through Data Streams and the Chainlink Runtime Environment, Chainlink provides Polymarket with high-speed, accurate pricing at any hour — and because the data feed runs continuously, these markets can settle around the clock rather than only during traditional exchange hours.

"Polymarket traders are some of the most connected in the world. With Chainlink 24/7, they can now take positions in a growing number of equity, commodity, and FX markets at all times. Chainlink gives us the reliable, high-speed data to launch new markets at scale, and gives our users the confidence that they will resolve accurately," said Neal Kumar, Chief Legal Officer at Polymarket.

Under the expanded arrangement, Polymarket's market makers and algorithmic traders can now receive the same low-latency Chainlink Data Streams powering these markets through self-serve access, equipping them with the accurate data they need to price new markets the moment they go live. With its market participant ecosystem in place, Polymarket is positioned to launch new offerings at scale as it continues its expansion across asset classes — making the pace of new market rollouts across equities, commodities, and FX the near-term signal of how far this partnership reaches.

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

The integration of gold and silver markets marks the latest step in Polymarket's push beyond cryptocurrency-based products, extending its rapid, short-duration market format to traditional commodities alongside the platform's growing lineup of equity and FX offerings. Gold and silver sit among the most heavily traded commodities in global finance, and bringing them into a 15-minute format underscores how far the platform's short-duration model now stretches from its crypto origins.
