Donald Trump Jr. is investing big: the president’s son has poured millions into the cryptocurrency platform Polymarket.

Recall:

Polymarket is a decentralized Ethereum-based platform that allows users to bet on the probability of any events. In other words, it’s something between financial betting, sports wagering, and weather forecasts.

Donald Trump Jr.’s venture firm, 1789 Capital, invested “tens of millions of dollars” in Polymarket. Negotiations between Polymarket and 1789 Capital began 18 months ago, but the new partner decided to wait with actual investments until Trump Sr., through his crypto initiatives, somewhat cleared the fog in U.S. legislation.

Founded in 2020, Polymarket allows users to trade event probabilities using USDC on the Polygon blockchain. Since 2022, the company limited access for U.S. citizens after strict restrictions and a settlement with the CFTC.

In July 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice and the CFTC completed investigations into Polymarket without charges, and the company returned to the U.S. Shortly after, it acquired QCEX, a CFTC-licensed derivatives exchange, for $112 million.

That’s where Don Jr.’s “investments” came in handy. He is not a member of the company’s investment committee (does not directly participate in asset allocation), but sits on Polymarket’s advisory board.

Trump Jr. stated that prediction markets “overcome the influence of the media” and “so-called expert opinions,” allowing people to bet based on their personal expectations about events. The president’s son is convinced that every person has a sufficiently professional opinion about everything happening, and everyone can place a bet on that opinion.

Shayne Coplan is confident that Trump capital’s participation will strengthen Polymarket’s role as a “reliable source of free and accurate market information.” Investment terms were not disclosed, but in the words typical of Donald Trump Sr., this was definitely a “tremendous, genius deal.”

By the way, Trump Jr. is already acting as a strategic advisor to Kalshi, a competing prediction platform. It is reported that he will keep that role as well, further strengthening his influence in this niche but fast-growing market.

It turns out that classic fundamental and technical analysis is still more reliable.

So we act wisely and avoid unnecessary risks.

Profits to y’all!
