Polymarket launches a withdrawal address whitelist feature, with newly added addresses subject to a 48-hour lockup period.
On November 10, Polymarket Engineering Vice President Josh Stevens announced on the X platform that the platform has launched a withdrawal address whitelist feature, allowing users to restrict withdrawal and position transfer operations for their deposit wallets to pre-authorized addresses.
Newly added whitelist addresses require email verification and undergo a 48-hour lockup period, during which users can cancel unauthorized requests via email. This mechanism aims to mitigate the risk of asset loss from compromised account sessions or the signing of malicious transactions.
The feature is currently available to users with the latest version of the deposit wallet and can be enabled in account settings. Josh Stevens stated that the platform also plans to introduce Passkey support, wallet migration tools, and additional built-in security measures.
