Polymarket says it has banned several users and will share their information with authorities after bettors allegedly issued threats against a journalist whose reporting affected a high-stakes wager tied to an Iranian missile strike.
The cryptocurrency-based prediction market posted a statement on X denouncing the behavior. The company said it “condemns the harassment & threats directed at Emanuel Fabian — or anyone else for that matter.” It added that such conduct “violates our Terms of Service & has no place on our platform,” and said it had “banned the accounts for all involved & will pass their info to the relevant authorities.”
