在預測市場正確預測川普的選舉勝利後，聯準會扣押了 Polymarket 執行長的設備

週三凌晨，聯邦特工從 Polymarket 首席執行官謝恩·科普蘭 (Shayne Coplan) 位於 Soho 的住所查獲了電子設備，一周前，預測市場平台正確預測了唐納德·特朗普 (Donald Trump) 總統選舉的勝利。

Federal agents seized electronic devices from Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan’s Soho residence early Wednesday morning, a week after the prediction market platform correctly forecast Donald Trump’s presidential election victory.

週三凌晨，聯邦特工從 Polymarket 首席執行官謝恩·科普蘭 (Shayne Coplan) 位於 Soho 的住所查獲了電子設備，一周前，預測市場平台正確預測了唐納德·特朗普 (Donald Trump) 總統選舉的勝利。

According to a report by the New York Post, law enforcement officers arrived at the 26-year-old entrepreneur’s home at 6:00 a.m. to confiscate his phone and other electronics, a source close to the matter said.

據《紐約郵報》報道，一位知情人士稱，執法人員於早上 6 點到達這位 26 歲企業家的家中，沒收了他的手機和其他電子產品。

“They could have asked his lawyer for any of these things. Instead, they staged a so-called raid so they can leak it to the media and use it for obvious political reasons,” the source told The Post, describing the incident as “grand political theater at its worst.”

「他們本來可以向他的律師詢問這些事情。相反，他們進行了一次所謂的突襲，以便將其洩露給媒體，並出於明顯的政治原因使用它，」消息人士告訴《華盛頓郵報》，並將這一事件描述為「最糟糕的政治大戲」。

Although no official reason was given for the seizure, the source believes it was political retaliation for Polymarket’s accurate prediction of Trump’s win over traditional polling.

儘管官方沒有給出這次扣押的原因，但消息人士認為，這是對 Polymarket 準確預測川普戰勝傳統民調的政治報復。

They suggested the government may allege market manipulation and poll rigging in Trump’s favor as part of this response to the platform’s correct forecast of the 2024 election outcome.

他們表示，政府可能會指控市場操縱和操縱民調對川普有利，作為對該平台對 2024 年選舉結果的正確預測做出回應的一部分。

A Polymarket spokesperson defended the platform as a fully transparent prediction market that helps people understand significant events, including elections.

Polymarket 發言人辯稱，該平台是一個完全透明的預測市場，可以幫助人們了解包括選舉在內的重大事件。

Following Trump’s win, Polymarket has continued to offer users the opportunity to bet on predictions related to his policies and campaign promises.

在川普獲勝後，Polymarket 繼續為用戶提供押注與其政策和競選承諾相關的預測的機會。

Among the new markets are bets on Trump’s potential action to end the Ukraine war before his inauguration and his pledge to pardon Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht within his first 100 days.

新市場押注川普在就職前可能採取行動結束烏克蘭戰爭，以及他承諾在上任100天內赦免絲路創始人羅斯·烏布利希。
