Tried 3 prediction markets, this one's for poor people

Tested all three major prediction market platforms over the past month—Polymarket, Kalshi, and 1024EX. Here's my honest breakdown: Polymarket: Undeniably the best liquidity and deepest markets. If you're throwing serious size, this is where the action is. But it's a massive pain for US and Asia users—needs VPN, geo-restrictions, KYC headaches. Great product, terrible accessibility. Kalshi: Regulated, legit, feels safe. But the selection is boring as hell—mostly legacy finance and politics, nothing exciting. Fine for boomers who want ""responsible"" betting, not for degen traders. 1024EX: Crypto-native, USDT deposits, actually Chinese-friendly without VPN gymnastics. Low fees, clean interface, and the AI trading tools are a nice bonus. Liquidity isn't Polymarket-level yet, but for small to medium money it works perfectly fine. My take: Small money? 1024EX is smooth, cheap, and hassle-free. Big institutional size? Suck it up and deal with Polymarket's restrictions. Kalshi's only if you want to feel like a ""responsible adult"" while missing all the fun.
