Summary

Bitget Wallet says prediction markets are becoming a major onboarding path for crypto, with 60% of Polymarket users showing no prior onchain trading history. The report frames prediction markets as an application-led entry point that brings in mainstream users through familiar event-based interfaces instead of DeFi mechanics. It also shows that most users stay concentrated in prediction markets and only lightly engage with DEX activity afterward. The article highlights a broader shift in how users discover and interact with blockchain-based financial products.
