The launch introduces a feature many traders have wanted for years: the ability to borrow against their Polymarket positions.
This means users can keep their predictions open while still accessing liquidity, similar to how investors borrow against stocks or other financial assets.
How Borrowing Against Prediction Positions Works
Prediction markets let users bet on the outcome of real world events. Traders buy shares that reflect the probability of things like election results, sports outcomes, or economic news. These shares change value as public sentiment shifts. Until now, once a trader locked their funds into a prediction market, the capital stayed tied up until the outcome was resolved. Gondor changes that by allowing users to use their open positions as collateral.
The platform evaluates the value of a user’s Polymarket holdings and allows them to borrow stablecoins against those positions. Backed by active prediction shares, the loans let users keep exposure to events while gaining liquidity to trade, invest, or hedge. This approach is similar to what DeFi platforms like Aave and Compound already offer, where users borrow against cryptocurrencies they hold. Gondor is bringing that same model to a new asset class.

This feature taps into a growing trend in the market. According to recent industry data, prediction market volume surged during major political events, such as the US midterm elections, with Polymarket alone processing tens of millions of dollars in trading activity. Many traders wanted access to additional capital without closing their positions early. Gondor now offers that option.
