Polymarket is a platform where people can bet on real-world events, political and otherwise. Leaving the ethical considerations of this aside (for one, it facilitates assassination), one of the issues with making this work is the verification of these real-world events. Polymarket gamblers have threatened a journalist because his story was being used to verify an event. And now, gamblers are taking hair dryers to weather sensors to rig weather bets. There’s also insider trading: a lot of it.
Hah! We have exposed your deepest, darkest incompetence! You must be so embarrassed!

This imbecile should be fired immediately. He was leaking confidential IAEA data from Iran to Israel, including personal data about scientists, so that the Mossad could assassinate them.
A disgrace of a human being, a corrupt professional and an accomplice in extra-judicial killings.
