EXCLUSIVE: A top Polymarket executive sent hundreds of thousands of dollars — and likely more — to social media influencers from left to right. One influencer says Polymarket wrote posts for them to share on X and asked them to promote specific bets.

Anyone surprised? I posted something about that a couple of weeks back. This is why so many posts sound and look identical from different accounts.

I have a solution. Shut down kalshi and polymarket and all the other gambling companies, and seal the CEOs into some spider filled cave with concrete over the entrance. They can survive on spiders and cave wall moisture for what theyve done to people.

Whenever I read about insider/rigged bets and scams on Polymarket and Kalshi, I immediately think: This is probably how the real stock market works, too.

I, for one, don't bother with influencers. What influences me is: 1) referrals from people I know and respect, 2) the quality of the product and the price per. If I accept a referral otherwise it will be in an advertisement but only if I believe that ad. ( too many misleading ads out there)

All prediction markets are pump and dump scams dressed up as gambling sites, which should be illegal due the high opportunity for fraud.
