Polymarket, un mercado de predicciones que permite apostar con criptomonedas, ha visto un aumento en las apuestas ultrarrápidas, especialmente sobre el precio de Bitcoin en intervalos de cinco minutos. Estas apuestas binarias, donde los usuarios predicen si el precio subirá o bajará, representan una parte significativa del volumen de operaciones en plataformas como Polymarket y Kalshi. Aunque inicialmente populares en EE. UU. con apuestas deportivas y elecciones, la inmediatez de las apuestas ultrarrápidas ha atraído a nuevos inversores, algunos de los cuales las encuentran adictivas. Un usuario relata la euforia inicial y la necesidad de establecer límites debido a la naturaleza adictiva del juego. Este tipo de apuestas se compara con juegos de casino debido a su rapidez y potencial para generar ganancias o pérdidas rápidas.
