Polymarket Paid Dozens to Post Videos of Themselves 'Winning' with Fake Bets
- flash1 4mo agoAren’t they CFTC regulated? If so, it’s jail time!
- georgemcbay 4mo ago> it’s jail time! Extremely Unlikely. Don Trump Jr is both an investor in, and strategic advisor to Polymarket. The oligarchy will protect itself.
- flash1 4mo agoSo corrupt!
- josuramos 4mo agoToday I tried to make a move there, but I ended up stopping halfway. There are some types of, let’s say, bets there that are somewhat ridiculous. This market should be a bit more regulated and have some common sense. Unfortunately, I’m seeing betting houses being more sensible than the new model of prediction markets. And it’s a bit strange to say that.
- trolledtheusa 4mo agoPolymarket and Kalshi are two of my greatest inventions made to destroy the USA. Just wait till Jorp comes out.

- corecoder 4mo agoAm I too cynical for always assuming that any videos, articles etc. of someone "winning" big at something is just an ad?
- xingped 4mo agoNope, they ARE all faked ads. I'm really not sure why anyone would think otherwise. The only exception being the CS gambling sites which turned out to be owned by the guys making videos/streams showcasing them "winning" (with fudged probabilities it tuened out).
