No, Polymarket Whales Aren't Evidence of Prediction Market Manipulation
Briefly

Trump's odds on Polymarket have surged, possibly due to substantial betting by a small group. This could reflect genuine increasing support rather than market manipulation.
The claim that the surge in Trump's odds is a mirage from a few accounts is contrasted by consistent data from other prediction markets, suggesting broader support.
It's key to note each prediction market aligns, with Trump's chances being reflected similarly on platforms like Predictit and Kalshi, which are regulated.
The increase in Trump's prediction market odds may correspond with declining support for Harris, as indicated by new polling trends and interview performances.
