A surge in user activity has led to record commission fees for the platforms. Last week, this figure exceeded $2.7 million, marking an all-time high.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Opinion emerged as the leader, accounting for 54% of the total amount ($1.5 million). Polymarket earned approximately $787,000, primarily from short-term 15-minute markets.<\/p>\n
