Comparing the Best/Worst Prediction Markets in crypto: Kalshi vs Polymarket vs SX Bet
Tldr: So you have the attention span of an ape. Let me keep this short, then. Each prediction market is best/worst depending on where you live and what you bet. Polymarket is a beast on news and politics, crypto native. SX Bet is the best prediction market for sports by far, crypto native. Kalshi has high fees and not crypto native, but a cool site if you are in a US state that can't bet. But if you are a crypto investor and can't figure out how to use Polymarket and SX Bet then please just give up on crypto.
# Sports:
**🥇 SX Bet -** Deepest Sports product by far, all the offerings, no fees, parlays, and best odds
**🥈Polymarket -** has about 60% of the sports markets, all the main ones. Just bad coverage on smaller sports like Tennis, UFC, and smaller soccer leagues. No parlays, but great odds and no fees.
🥉**Kalshi -** High fees and limited markets. Sports prices are fairly widely available, so it's weird for an exchange to not compete for best odds.
# News:
**🥇 Polymarket -** Hundreds of markets, good liquidity and a nice UI
**🥈Kalshi -** Less markets than Polymarket but good liquidity. And banking access to US
🥉**SX bet -** Limited to no news prediction markets. So clear last place here
# Access:
**🥇 SX bet & Polymarket -** Both fully crypto native, bet in USDC. Deposit from any chain, self custody your crypto and limited to no KYC when you sign up. A dream for crypto users.
**🥈Kalshi -** US licensed but no crypto options. Deposit through the banking system, they hold you money. They say they are going to accept stable coins soon, but as a funding option, they still hold your coins. Not your coins, not your crypto. Be careful here. Also i think you can just VPN on the top 2
