politics

If you need evidence that polymarket can be manipulated... this looks like pretty good evidence.

OK, never doing anything on polymarket. This is sickening

tbf, it's not polymarket tilting the field. it's a user or a couple of them.

that being said, poly is /clearly/ leaning into the politics of controversy for traffic and exposure and that's not something i support.

there are other prediction markets.

I mean, I can get it's just business for them. Any controversy is good for the betting lines. 

But they are influencing a whole lot more with this. This kind of "lead" dissuades" people from voting. 

This needs to be... what's the word... "regulated"

trump supporters are using it to signal who they want to win.

it's advertising.

that's only as dangerous as polymarket has influence, which isn't much.

Yup, pure advertising. 

Don't know the full extent of poly reach? You think it's not that big?

I'm just afraid of the crypto "bros" that think he is the new sliced bread of crypto. People tend to think if Kamala wins, it's bear season immediately. And IMO she is not as vocal as she should be on the matter (regardless of slight improvement) in the last month or so.

people don't find trump appealing. advertising an impending trump win could very well do the /opposite/ thing. notice how we're talking about it, but not in a pro-mango way. that's common.
