[Polymarket Team Calls Kalshi Executive an 'Idiot' Over Criticism of Polymarket's Lack of KYC and Calls for Shutdown] Odaily Planet Daily News: Two members of prediction market platform teams clashed on Platform X over the KYC issue. The conflict began when Polymarket's VP of Engineering, Josh Stevens, denied that the platform would fully implement KYC. Kalshi's Head of Compliance, @robertjdenault, cited the related post, stating that Polymarket should have implemented KYC long ago, claiming that Russians and Iranians freely trade on the platform, and insiders are recklessly using it. He added that if Polymarket genuinely wants to prevent such situations, they should either ensure all operations comply with regulations (starting with KYC) or shut down entirely. In response, Polymarket official Mustafa angrily called the Kalshi executive an 'idiot' in the comments under the post.
