    So they saw unusual amounts of activity on these prediction bets and likely subpoenaed the accounts involved. If the guy had been smart about it he would've had someone he knew put the bet in return for splitting the winnings. Make sure you aren't associated on social media or geographically close.

      His plan had one fatal weakness. His last name wasn't Trump.

        Lemmy complains when people trade with insider information and Lemmy also complains when people get arrested for trading with insider information.

        It's almost like some people just live to complain.

          More cases of "rules for thee and not for me", of course. You won't see the DOJ arresting anyone in the Trump family making the same kind of bets.

          If this guy's lawyer is smart about this, they should ask for discovery on specific instances of insider trading that we know about like the Iran bombing bets made on Kalshi or similar platforms. It would probably be a quick way to get the case dismissed or at least settled out.

          Well, yeah. Polymarket is owned by the Trump family, as is the DOJ.

            So Trump and his goons can do it, but a common soldier gets arrested.

              I mean given they were part of a giant child trafficking ring and they're all still alive and free I think its clear to everyone its one set of rules for the wealthy and another for everyone else.

                  This guy tried to steal money from polymarket and they weren't having any of that. Immediately turned over every bit of evidence to the US justice department.

                    When will they arrest the traitors in Washington who "luckily" bet on war events in the middle east?

                      You can't steal from polymarket. The odds are such that they always make money regardless of outcomes. The odds average such that the winners share the losers money less the polymarket cut.

                        So that's who the sacrificial lamb will be who will take the heat for the way bigger majority of opportunistic trash that were in on it. Good move criminals...for now.

                          Maybe not owned, but who knows. The crime family is certainly closely involved with Polymarket . The guy can still buy a pardon if he has enough money. On the other hand, maybe loyal customers are eligible for pardons.

                            On Hegseth being drunk? Not quite a free space like Patel, but pretty close.

                            But yea, you could bet on military actions.
