A New Era for Polymarket: Donald Trump Jr. as a Strategic Advisor and Investor
The 1789 Capital investment fund, co-founded by the son of the current US President Donald Trump Jr., has announced a strategic investment in the Polymarket forecast markets platform. As part of this collaboration, Donald Trump Jr. also took a seat on the company's advisory board, marking an important milestone in the development of the service.
This event comes amid Polymarket's active preparations to resume its operations in the United States. Previously, the company acquired the licensed exchange QCEX for an impressive amount of $112 million, which creates a legal basis for returning to the American market.
In addition, Polymarket has entered into a landmark partnership agreement with the social network "X", under which the platform will become the exclusive provider of forecast markets functionality. Such integration can significantly expand the audience and influence of the service. The platform's financial performance is showing rapid growth: in the first half of 2025 alone, the volume of transactions made by users reached $6 billion.
Polymarket's CEO, Shane Coplan, commented on the deal with 1789 Capital, calling it a key step for the company's further scaling. In his opinion, this partnership will not only attract additional resources, but also contribute to strengthening Polymarket's reputation as a leading source of transparent and reliable forecasts for events in the United States and around the world.



celese Haha, classic! First they screwed over the players, then the license turned out to be fake, and now they’re trying to undo everything. A total circus. Yeah, everything will just get bought. They’ll pay whoever they need in Curaçao and get a new license. Money rules everything, especially in this industry.

Wow, what a twist! The Trumps are in crypto now. Curious to see how this will affect the platform itself. Hopefully, they don’t turn it into a political tool.
