‘Death markets!’ U.S lawmaker slams Polymarket bets on lost U.S soldiers in Iran

U.S. lawmaker Seth Moulton strongly criticized the prediction market platform Polymarket for allowing users to bet on the fate of a missing American soldier in Iran-downed aircraft, calling it a "disgusting death market." He also accused former President Donald Trump, an investor in Polymarket, of potentially profiting from access to non-public intelligence. Polymarket quickly removed the market, citing integrity violations and launched an internal review. This incident is part of a broader pattern; the platform previously faced scrutiny when insiders reportedly earned over $1.2 million from contracts related to U.S. strikes in Iran and the death of its former leader. Senator Chris Murphy announced plans to introduce legislation to make such markets illegal, highlighting growing ethical and regulatory concerns around prediction platforms.
