Prediction market platform Polymarket launches withdrawal address whitelist

The Vice President of Engineering at the prediction market platform Polymarket, Josh Stevens, announced that the platform has launched a withdrawal address whitelist feature. Users can lock the withdrawal address of their deposit wallet, and adding a new address requires email verification and setting a 48-hour time lock. Operations not performed by the user can be canceled via email.

Stevens stated that even if a session is compromised or a malicious transaction is mistakenly signed, funds cannot be transferred to an uncontrolled address. This feature can be enabled in "Settings - Account," and Passkey support will be launched soon. The team is developing a migration tool for non-deposit wallets and will introduce advanced built-in security protections that do not require manual activation.
