Where can I bet on the Election?
There are many places to bet on the election and each suits different needs. You could go with a classic sportsbook or a crypto based prediction market. It really depends on just how crypto savvy and how degenerate you are. If you are looking for the best possible odds or just want to lay money down as fast as possible. Let´s go through the options.
Stake
Stake is a crypto based sportsbook and casino. It has been around for years and is one of the most respected out there. For Election 2024 they are offering the best odds out there and on top of that if your pick gets 220 delegates you win regardless. We all know this is going to be a close election which makes it a offer that you shouldn’t overlook. You will need crypto do bet on Stake but you can buy crypto (even with a credit card)on the site itself.
Drift
Drift is a prediction market on the Solana blockchain. The main advantage is that transactions on SOL are fast and cheap. The interface is easy to use and to meet all your degen needs it also has a trading platform with 20x leveraged futures. Make sure to check out Drift to make sure you are getting the best odds out there.
Bet Online
One of the oldest sportsbooks out there. While the odds are slightly worse than Stake or Polymarket you can deposit with credit card or crypto. They also offer a deposit bonus which can really pump your winnings if you get it right.
Polymarket
Polymarket is a prediction market that is based on the Polygon blockchain. You are not betting with a sportsbook but with and against other bettors. You can also bet on a wide range of predictions around politics, sports and crypto. You will need to get some Polygon (Matic) coin, get a Meta Mask wallet, and then go through a few steps with your Meta Mask wallet to deposit to Polymarket. If you are already used to using Meta Mask it should not be that big of a problem. The odds are close to Stake and you might even be able to arbitrage some of your bets. If I lost you with all this then just stick to one of the two above mentioned options.
