It's good to see someone else looking at the record here, not just what's happening today. That bit about the Fed rate cuts resolving "No" before the announcement really shows how these things play out. It's how it's always worked.

It's highly likely the Polymarket for June 19-20 resolving to "No" was a direct result of no strikes happening on those dates, and I'd put that probability around 95% given the clear rules. We're also seeing similar resolutions for other speculative events, like the "Will the Fed cut rates in July?" market, which closed "No" before the actual August announcement, reinforcing that these windows are indeed quite final.

Saying that military strikes on June 21st somehow triggered a "No" outcome for Polymarket on June 19th and 20th just doesn't follow basic logic; the markets resolved that way because nothing happened on those earlier dates.
There's a clear downside to conflating events like that, it muddies the waters about what actually caused what.
A later event can't retroactively make an earlier non-event occur; if a flight is cancelled Monday, the reason is because it didn't fly, not because a different flight left on Wednesday.
The condition for a "No" resolution was simply the absence of action on those specific days, full stop.
Anything else is a speculative drawdown on clarity, trying to find a cause where none exists for that particular outcome.

Wallets consistently achieving perfect win rates in prediction markets, while appearing suspicious, do not automatically confirm insider trading. Such posture can also reflect superior analytical discipline or deep market expertise. For instance, a veteran analyst in economic policy might consistently predict central bank decisions correctly, not due to inside information, but from extensive knowledge. It is essential to distinguish between controllable knowledge and noise from illicit activity.

Designating perfect-win wallets as a primary signal for insider trading shows a lack of discipline in analysis; it conflates confidence with illicit knowledge.
Such behavior is certainly a signal, but it is not decisive on its own.
A market maker, for example, often exhibits high win rates by continuously adjusting positions and holding contracts to maturity, not through inside information, but through managing their posture against market noise.
Their controllable actions create consistent outcomes without resorting to unethical practices.
