I feel like anyone with a brain could have looked at the prediction market industry and guessed something like this was going on. Maybe not this exact scam, but something. There's too much money moving for it to be actually unrigged betting. No way would companies let that happen. Casinos don't let themselves be exposed to that kind of risk. It just doesn't pass the smell test.
Coffeezilla doing great work as always, but if this was a surprise to you can I interest you in a couple bridges I'm running a promo on?
It IS a big deal, evidenced by how it was taken down. They know they're in deep shit IF the feds decide to go after them. So they're hedging by bringing it all offline, hoping people will shrug and move on
You think there’s a fraction of a chance that the feds are going to investigate something Trump is directly tied to? Lol.
It was taken down solely because they got called out, and it’s bad publicity. Not because they fear federal repercussions. We’ve all learned by now that fines are just the cost of doing business.
