**News Flash: Concerns Over Polymarket Manipulation Amid Trump’s Rising 2024 Odds**

Top bettors on Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market, are raising eyebrows over potential manipulation. A user named “Fredi9999” has placed over $20 million in pro-Trump bets, significantly influencing Trump’s odds for the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

Despite no major real-world events justifying this surge, Trump’s odds hit a record 60.2% on Oct. 16. Experts like Alex Momot warn that such market behavior might be skewing public perception. With less than three weeks to Election Day, the reliability of prediction markets is under scrutiny.

Transaction patterns suggest “Fredi9999” might control multiple top Trump betting accounts, raising further concerns about market integrity. As Polymarket’s influence grows, the potential for manipulation becomes a pressing issue.
