Suspected of insider trading, six accounts bet on the US strike against Iran on a prediction platform, making a profit of one million US dollars.

According to the analysis company BubblemapsSA, six accounts on the prediction platform Polymarket have made approximately $1 million in profit by betting that the United States would strike Iran before February 28. These accounts were all opened in February and they only placed bets on the timing of a possible US strike. Some of the shares in these accounts were purchased just hours before the first explosion in Tehran was reported, and some were even bought at a price of about 10 cents per share. This betting pattern has raised suspicions of insider trading, as blockchain analysts have pointed out similar patterns in other cases of suspected insider trading in prediction markets, such as when an insider bet on Juan Guaid overthrowing Venezuelan President Maduro in January and made a huge profit.
