🛑 BREAKING: POLYMARKET MANIPULATION 🛑 Someone very large is currently manipulating 5-minute markets on @Polymarket. I assume that because today is Sunday and most big players (funds and major market makers) are usually not active, there is low liquidity on exchanges. Because of that, someone very large is taking advantage of it and moving BTC price wherever they want. They are basically manipulating the market to farm 5-minute Polymarket markets. I have been observing this for about 2 hours. For example, the “up” position is trading at 65 cents even before the market opens, and when it opens, even while BTC is going down, the “up” position is still trading higher than the “down” position (EVEN THOUGH IT’S FALLING). They accumulate positions for a few minutes, and then BTC suddenly spikes upward. You might ask why I’m not following this and trying to “ride the whale.” Well, I tried, but every time the “outside liquidity” for this whale becomes too large, it screws me over and reverses the price in the other direction. It’s naive to think you can consistently profit on a manipulated market by following the manipulator—because the whole point of the manipulation is to farm small fish like me and you. On weekdays I never noticed this, I assume because other large players are active and it becomes too hard to manipulate BTC price. Take a look at screenshot #1. The market hasn’t even opened yet, but the “down” position is already trading at 66 cents. Now look at screenshot #2. There are about 1 minute and 22 seconds left until the market closes, and the price is going up, but at the same time the “down” position is more expensive than the “up” position. Look at screenshot #3. With 11 seconds left before the candle closes, BTC suddenly dumps sharply, and the Polymarket market closes with a win for the manipulator. His has happened repeatedly in different variations, but the fact remains: this is price manipulation of BTC to farm profits on the 5-minute prediction market. If you care about Polymarket, please share this post so the team notices it and conducts its own investigation into this matter. @shayne_coplan @mustafap0ly @williamlegate @devjoshstevens @digitdustin is this legal? $POLY














@76Tensai @Polymarket Linking your X account to your Poly account is only a third of the equation. You also should probably (what do I know) link your Polymarket profile in your X bio & actively share your trades/wins/insights with the community here :)
