What does “miss out on” mean? I suppose what I’m asking is does Polymarket act as a counterparty or simply facilitate bet matching? Even more direct, who won the money missed out on? https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/08/29/polymarket-bettors-miss-out-on-270k-due-to-pavel-durovs-early-release/amp/

Users trade amongst themselves, not through PolyMarket The article doesn’t really make sense Basically $270k was bet on “NO” but it resolved to “YES”

Thank for clarifying . . . So that $270k lost on no was won by people betting yes, right? Figured it was clickbaitish to say people lost $ betting on something . . . But an about equal amount is won so . . .
