A longshot bet involves a single wallet buying $2,500 or more in contracts at a low price within an hour.
While risky, successful longshot bets yield substantial returns due to their low initial cost.
Military and defense prediction markets show an unusually high success rate for these longshot bets.
Over half of longshot bets in these markets are winning outcomes, exceeding statistical expectations.
This suggests potential information advantages not reflected in public market pricing.
Raisons
Polymarket prediction markets for June 19th and 20th resolved with a "No" outcome.
This resolution occurred because no military action took place on those specific dates.
However, markets for June 21st, 22nd, and 23rd resolved "Yes" after US military strikes.
The United States conducted military strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities on June 21, 2025.
These strikes happened between 18:40 and 19:05 ET, triggering the market resolutions.
