Polymarket upgrade won't auto-migrate existing bets
Polymarket's contract upgrade requires app users to approve prompts and integrations to add V2 identifiers and permissions while keeping CTF support.
Polymarket is rolling out a contract upgrade that will not automatically move existing bets to new contracts, according to CryptoSlate. The change means users and third-party integrators must take specific steps for positions to carry over.
What users and integrators need to do
- App users must follow approval prompts as part of the upgrade process.
- Integrations must continue supporting CTF while adding V2 identifiers and permissions.
The upgrade affects how existing positions are handled on the prediction market platform, requiring manual action rather than an automatic migration. Polymarket has not indicated a timeline for the transition in the source.
Polymarket is a decentralized prediction market where users trade on the outcomes of real-world events. Contract upgrades are common in DeFi, but they can require coordination between front-end users and external developers who build on the protocol.
