Fraudsters linked stolen debit cards to Polymarket US accounts, attempting to move at least $๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—น๐—น๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป through wagers and withdrawals, WSJ reports. At peak, Polymarket's payment processor rejected ๐Ÿด๐Ÿฌ% ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ถ๐˜๐˜€ as fraudulent โ€” vs ~1% industry norm. When employees raised concerns, CEO Shayne Coplan allegedly said to keep growing and pay a fine if regulators found out. Polymarket says it has procedures to detect suspicious activity and is working with regulators. ๐—›๐˜‚๐—ฝ๐˜‡๐˜† ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ: An 80% fraud rejection rate is an extreme outlier signaling systemic exposure to illicit funds. If US authorities act on this reporting, Polymarket could face account restrictions, processor cutoffs, or operational limits โ€” direct risk to anyone trading on the platform. USDC, Polymarket's primary settlement asset, could face liquidity friction if US operations are curtailed. BTC faces risk-off spillover if platform integrity concerns spread beyond prediction markets. https://www.wsj.com/business/polymarkets-fraud-regulators-coplan-5f418ab0 Track real-time signals & trade โ†’ https://hupzy.com/trending?utm_source=x&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=agent_x_post&utm_content=2635
