Polymarket adds 48-hour wait for new withdrawal addresses

Published Nov 11, 2026

Polymarket has introduced a 48-hour waiting period for new withdrawal addresses. Users can now restrict withdrawals to approved addresses and cancel an unauthorized address addition by email.

Why this matters?

Adds a security layer against account takeovers and unauthorized withdrawals, a common vector for crypto platform exploits. The email-based cancellation feature gives users a recovery window if their wallet is compromised.
