Republican candidate Donald Trump secured an 8% lead over Kamala Harris in prediction marketplace, Polymarket, on Monday. The 54% to 45.5% gap is Trump's highest lead since Harris took over the Democratic spot.

Trump's recent lead follows Tesla and SpaceX billionaire CEO Elon Musk's indirect endorsement of Polymarket in an X post on Monday. Musk wrote that Polymarket odds are more accurate than election polls "as actual money is on the line."

MAGA and SUPER TRUMP posted gains of 33% and 37%, respectively, indicating increased positive sentiments among crypto investors toward a Trump win in the upcoming elections.
