Methodology
We read Valorant: XLG Gaming vs NRG (BO3) - VCT Masters London Group Stage from four platform perspectives: Polymarket (on-chain CLOB), Kalshi (CFTC-regulated exchange), Betfair Exchange (sports book exchange), Smarkets (peer-to-peer betting exchange). Polymarket's live quote comes directly from the Polygon order book; the other three are listed with their platform attributes — fees, KYC, settlement currency, payment options — because a 1:1 contract comparison without API access would be guesswork.

Polymarket Alternative routes every trade directly into Polymarket's on-chain settlement, which is why payouts land fastest.
