In the week since President Joe Biden resigned as the Democratic nominee, his running mate Kamala Harris has actually doubled the chances of a Democrat taking the White House, from 18% to 38%, CoinVoice has learned. Harris’s improvement in the Polymarket poll appears to be due to small individual bets entering the market, according to CoinDesk.
Trump supporters, however, appear more confident: The top five holders of the "yes" side of Trump contracts hold a total of 9.1 million shares, which would translate into $9.1 million in bonuses if Trump wins. Meanwhile, the top five holders of the "yes" side of Harris contracts hold a total of 4.7 million shares. Overall, traders on Polymarket have bet $423 million on the outcome of the U.S. presidential race. [Original link]
