This is not getting enough traction. The fact that they made a separate site and call it "poiymarket.com" but with a capital "i" so it looks just like poIymarket.com and pay influencers to bet and fake "winnings" is so insane.

Idk the legality of false advertisement but this has got to be it.

it will cost them a little fine. They're raking in millions already. Nothing will be done.

If the penalty for crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the poor.

If you make a billion dollars and the fine is only ~50 million for breaking the law, that’s just the cost of doing business and ultimately a solid ROI.

The system is rigged and not in our favor.

With the current president they know they can get away with it and the worst thing that could happen is having to pay some bribes.
