>This is obvious political retribution by the outgoing administration against Polymarket for providing a market that correctly called the 2024 presidential election

I don't even understand what the conspiracy theory is here. Why would that be something the Biden administration would seek retribution for? And even it were, how would they possibly achieve it before the new administration takes office?

I'm also confused, but I'd imagine that if Trump lost the election and betting sentiment on polymarket predicted strongly that Trump would win, it could be used as further "proof" that fraud occurred and that the democrats stole the election.

Polymarket probably thinks that the Biden administration is angry with them for showing how the population truly feels as all other sources are obviously corrupt /s
