Summary
Kalshi is advertising the biggest MLB trade-deadline promotion, offering up to $500 in trading bonuses to users who sign up and trade at least $25.
Polymarket is pitching a smaller deal—trade $10 to get up to $20 in bonus—while Crypto.com says users who deposit at least $125 can receive up to $250.
The offers are tied to rising interest in deadline speculation, with the report highlighting player-specific markets and expectations that trading activity will intensify before Monday's cutoff.
Combined, the three platforms are marketing more than $700 in potential bonuses as they compete for sports-event traders around one of baseball's busiest news windows.
Why are Polymarket, Kalshi, and Crypto.com racing to attach bonuses to MLB trade rumors, and which platform gives deadline speculators the best edge?
Are MLB trade-deadline prediction markets revealing real team intentions—or just turning rumors about Tarik Skubal and Luis Arraez into a bonus-fueled trading frenzy?
