95% of affected Polymarket wallets to receive refunds; total compensation amount expected to

Polymarket has completed full refunds for 95% of wallets affected by an external script intrusion that drained funds from the prediction market platform, with total compensation expected to reach $3.9 million. The payout comprises $2.7 million in direct losses from stolen funds plus $1.2 million covering losses tied to trading halts during the incident. Affected wallets were identified through on-chain records and the company's internal trading data, with no separate claim application required from users. The 95% figure refers to the share of impacted wallets that have received full refunds, not the proportion of total dollar losses reimbursed. The incident underscores operational and smart contract-adjacent risks for on-chain prediction markets, where trading interruptions can generate compensation liabilities beyond the initial exploit amount. Watch for whether Polymarket completes refunds for the remaining 5% of affected wallets and discloses further details on the intrusion's root cause.
