    "excerpt": "Intercontinental Exchange has invested $2 billion in cryptocurrency-based prediction market Polymarket, valuing the company at $9 billion post-money according to an announcement Tuesday.

ICE's backing provides substantial credibility as Polymarket pushes to establish a US presence in competition with regulated platforms like Kalshi. Rival Kalshi was reportedly close to raising funds at approximately $5 billion valuation in September...",
