据CoinDesk报道，印度尼西亚当局已封杀预测市场平台Polymarket，称使用加密货币或区块链技术并不能改变其赌博性质。

印尼当局声明指出，允许用户对不确定结果进行下注的平台本质上属于赌博产品。这是亚洲主要国家首次明确禁止该平台。

Polymarket是一个基于区块链的预测市场，用户可以对政治选举、经济事件等结果进行投注。该平台近年来在政治预测领域获得广泛关注，尤其是在2024年美国大选期间交易量激增。

此次封杀可能引发连锁反应。此前已有多个国家开始关注预测市场的监管问题。分析人士认为，这可能促使其他国家效仿印尼的立场，对该类平台施加更严格的限制。

Indonesia Blocks Polymarket, Calls Prediction Market Disguised Gambling

Indonesian authorities have blocked prediction market platform Polymarket, stating that using cryptocurrency or blockchain technology does not change its gambling nature, according to CoinDesk.

The Indonesian regulator declared that platforms allowing users to wager on uncertain outcomes are essentially gambling products. This marks the first time a major Asian country has explicitly banned the platform.

Polymarket is a blockchain-based prediction market where users can bet on outcomes ranging from political elections to economic events. The platform has gained widespread attention in political forecasting, particularly during the 2024 US election when trading volumes surged.

The ban could trigger a domino effect. Several countries have begun examining the regulatory status of prediction markets. Analysts suggest this may encourage other nations to follow Indonesia’s stance and impose stricter restrictions on such platforms.
