Experts in prediction markets voiced skepticism about claims of manipulation of Donald Trump's odds on Polymarket, citing a lack of evidence and the brief nature of price rigging attempts.
Despite sensationalist media headlines suggesting that a French gambler's bets on Trump could threaten democracy, both Polymarket and experts did not find substantial evidence to support manipulation claims.
Polymarket confirmed that a single French national had made significant bets on Trump's odds, yet the individual asserted that his motivations were purely financial with no political objectives.
Mainstream media discourse has likened the theories surrounding Polymarket’s odds to Donald Trump's complaints about the 2020 election, with both showing a tendency to assume rigging.
