QCEX founder Sergei Dobrovolskii spent four years securing designated contract market and derivatives clearing organization licenses.
Coplan called the acquisition “the foundation to bring Polymarket home,” saying domestic access will let traders price current events “with regulatory clarity and confidence.”
Dobrovolskii said combining QCEX’s licenses with Polymarket’s order flow can “change the way people access and understand information.”
Polymarket stated that it will collaborate with regulators to align existing markets with compliant rule sets before opening onboarding for US accounts.
The company did not provide a launch date, but stated that the integration of QCEX technology and clearing functions is underway.
Once live, American users will post margin and settle payouts through QC Clearing, bringing prediction contracts under the same safeguard regime that governs commodity futures.
Polymarket said the move aligns its global user experience with US oversight and positions the venue for further institutional participation.
