In a rare move, Polymarket has contradicted its decentralized oracle service UMA with regard to the resolution of a market betting on whether Barron Trump was likely involved with the DJT token. Neither Barron Trump nor Donald Trump's campaign has made an official statement about the token. Polymarket has signaled it may overrule UMA, a decentralized oracle service that referees the fast-growing platform's crypto-based prediction markets. Controversy has been brewing for days since UMA resolved a market asking whether it was more likely than not that Barron Trump, son of the former U.S. president, was involved in a meme coin called DJT. The oracle service decided several times the answer was "no," and holders of "yes" shares protested. Polymarket's surprise move is the latest wrinkle in the two-week-long saga of DJT, a Trump-themed memecoin that neither the Trump campaign nor Barron has acknowledged or denied being involved in.
