๐โคด๏ธ๐ช
The Polymarket community is reeling from allegations of market manipulation involving a whopping *$7 million bet* on a rare earth metals deal between Ukraine and the United States ๐คฏ.
*A Deal or No Deal? ๐ค*
Despite the lack of official statements from the parties involved, the market closed in favor of those expecting a deal before April ๐. This has raised concerns about the integrity of the platform, particularly with regards to the use of decentralized oracles (UMA) and the potential for major players to manipulate collateral ๐.
*Accusations Fly ๐*
The community claims that a major player secured a vote in their favor before the actual approval of the result and deadline, receiving *25% of the weight from three wallets* ๐. This has led to accusations of market manipulation and concerns that other users are afraid to confront these major players, risking their own funds ๐ฌ.
*A Growing Concern ๐จ*
This incident has sparked a wider debate about the role of decentralized prediction markets like Polymarket in shaping public opinion and the potential for manipulation ๐ค. As the platform continues to grow in popularity, it remains to be seen how it will address these concerns and ensure the integrity of its markets ๐.
