#预测市场平台 Seeing the $400,000 case on Polymarket, I can't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. New account, four trades, $32,500 principal, 1200% return rate, and knowing the news hours before the official announcement—this operational process is as clear as a textbook. No wonder U.S. lawmakers can't sit still and are pushing for legislation.



Honestly, this incident is a double-edged sword for prediction market players. On one hand, insider trading indeed undermines market pricing efficiency and fairness, and in the long run, it will erode platform participation enthusiasm; on the other hand, this wave of controversy actually validates the predictive market's sensitivity to certain sensitive events—price movements often precede news.

What is the implication for copy trading strategies? Instead of betting on political event markets that are easily distorted by insider information, it's better to focus on traders whose technical and fundamental analyses are relatively transparent. No matter how popular prediction market platforms are, they still need to be scrutinized—regulatory frameworks are not yet mature, and risk costs are rising. When choosing whom to follow, I prefer those who consistently profit from relatively stable assets, rather than those relying on black swan events.

Once legislation is enacted, the landscape of prediction markets will be reshaped, and surviving platforms will definitely be more regulated. It's okay to seize the current growth opportunity, but always leave room for stop-loss measures.
