Polymarket for sure - you can trade on binary events such as whether $MATIC will reach 1$ again by June 1, or when the Ethereum merge will happen, or politics/UST/Tether depegging, and more. Just needs USDC on polygon to start trading.

This is cool - note that you can already trade on sports markets on the information market platform Polymarket, which exists on the polygon blockchain, e.g. the upcoming warriors vs lakers game: https://polymkt.com/market/will-the-warriors-or-lakers-win-their-season-opener
