What I like about this launch is the stack:
@PolycoolApp
 keeps the mobile Polymarket experience.
@dimes_fi
 adds the credit layer.
And leverage is limited to sports & finance not sprayed across"

> **Visual Note:** A stacked area chart titled "Polymarket Weekly Trading Volume (International vs. US)" from Galaxy Research shows weekly trading volumes from August 2025 through July 2026, with international volumes (black) dominating throughout but US volumes (light blue) growing to a peak of approximately $4 billion in June 2026. The chart illustrates how Polymarket US has rapidly grown toward parity with its international counterpart, supporting the post's claim about the newer, KYC'd US platform catching up to the established global platform.

> "CHARTS OF THE WEEK: You might expect an eight-month-old, KYC’d prediction market to lag far behind a six-year-old, permissionless one. Yet Polymarket US is catching up with its global older sibling."

If true, the next question is simple:
