Polymarket cuts ties with George Santos as regulators probe trades on rival prediction market
Polymarket has ended its paid relationship with George Santos as federal regulators investigate whether he bet against his own attendance at President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address. Santos placed the bets on Kalshi, a rival prediction market, after publicly stating he would attend the event but later attributed his absence to a delayed flight. The Commodities Future Trading Commission is probing the trades for possible insider trading.
