Authorities arrest special forces soldier who allegedly made $400k on Polymarket bet involving Maduro operation
A special forces soldier involved in the operation that captured Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro has been indicted by the U.S. Justice Department. His alleged crime? Making numerous bets on the prediction market Polymarket that Maduro would be removed from power, for which he is said to have made upwards of $400,000. Authorities claim Gannon Ken Van Dyke, who was involved in the “planning and execution” of Operation Absolute Resolve (the stratagem that toppled and captured the Venezuelan leader), made bets on Polymarket about whether the U.S. would deploy forces into Venezuela and remove Maduro from power.المصدر: TechCrunch | Source: TechCrunch
