How? Some guy wants Polymarket gone so he bets $1 billion that it will be gone. Since this is absurd, everybody bets against him and makes a tidy profit. Whatever this is you’re proposing it doesn’t work.

I think they're saying you bet $1 billion it will not be gone, and someone takes that bet and kills Polymarket (How?)

  • Ah yes, of course and then he pays poly market ceo half that to close the company in time. But how do you not get screwed in your subterfuge?

    • > how do you not get screwed in your subterfuge?

      You have to make another market that is a proxy for you (not) getting screwed.
