BlockBeats news: On February 24, according to a prior announcement by on-chain detective ZachXBT, he will reveal a major investigation on February 26 involving one of the most profitable companies in the crypto industry, with multiple employees accused of abusing internal data for insider trading over an extended period.
Around this announcement, several crypto KOLs have engaged in discussions on social media. @spacexbt noted that if the investigation involves a prediction market platform, its employees could theoretically access sensitive information such as outcome determination criteria, market maker positions, liquidity data, and user order flows; combined with previous instances on the platform of "unusually high win rates" and substantial profit cases, this long-term information asymmetry warrants attention. Previous media reports have also mentioned suspected pre-emptive bets on geopolitical events and subsequent profits on Polymarket, sparking community discussions around insider trading.
In addition, Crypto Rug Muncher has targeted cryptocurrency projects associated with the Trump family, claiming that recent public statements and social media activities intensified market panic during the USD1 depegging event; it has also raised concerns about internal manipulation and information advantages in projects including WLFI. However, these views are currently only market commentary and have not been confirmed by any official investigation.
The market is awaiting the specific investigation details to be disclosed by ZachXBT on February 26.
