There's a crazy story on 404 media about how a #polymarket bet was apparently manipulated by an independent group that reports on hour-by-hour updates of the #ukraine war.
Site is paywalled, but I just listened to the podcast: apparently ISW, one group that maintains up-to-date maps of the conflict, released a "mistaken map" that caused a polymarket bet to resolve a certain way... then the map was quickly changed back.
This sort of parallels certain conversations about #weboftrust that we're having on Nostr... Who do you trust to make the assertion that "thing X" actually happened in the real world?
