on 02026-04-23#gambling allegedly won Master Sgt. #Gannon Ken Van Dyke US$400k for leaking the raid on #Venezuela to kidnap Nicolas #Maduro, but he's been arrested and an indictment was unsealed today. “The Commodity Futures Trading Commission [#CFTC] filed a related complaint against Van Dyke on Thursday, seeking restitution, disgorgement and civil monetary penalties.” #Polymarket’s stance has changed from “super cool (...) creates this financial incentive for people to go and divulge the information to the market” in November to “When we identified a user trading on classified government information, we referred the matter to the DOJ & cooperated with their investigation. Insider trading has no place on Polymarket. Today’s arrest is proof the system works.” #prediction-markets #news #USA #politics
