And I think that this warranted a more targeted, tailored story.

Because now allegedly, allegedly, presumably, possibly this platform is giving elected officials or just people with intel

free rein to make money off of this classified information and possibly creating incentives for people in power to make certain moves.

Placing a bet or having somebody place a bet and then taking an action that results in profiting off of that bet.

Now again, I'm not accusing anyone specifically, we're just pointing out what we are noticing.

Take a look at this story from earlier this week.

A trader made nearly $1 million since 2024 from dozens of well-timed polymarket bets that correctly predicted US and Israeli military actions against Iran, according to an analysis shared with CNN.

The better won a staggering 93% of their five-figure wagers about Iran, even though the events they predicted were unannounced military operations.

The trader has had a pattern of prescient bets, including hours before Israeli strikes in October of 2024 during its tit for tat conflict with Iran, hours before U.S.

airstrikes against Iranian nuclear facilities in June of 2025, and hours before the joint U.S.-Israeli surprise attack in February, which started the current war.

Quote, All of this is strong signaling of insider activity based on the amount they made, the markets they bet on, and the timing of their trades.

The success rates of those trades

and the fact that they are connected on chain, the same account.

This is pretty suspicious in my book.

And they go on and they write, it isn't clear whether the trader flagged by Bumble Maps is an insider and the accounts they use are anonymous and can't publicly be traced back to a specific person.

Like these apps, if if this is insider trading, has completely changed the game like this is crazy and it is far from an isolated incident.

Look at this.
