Wallet cluster earned $2.4M with 98% win rate on Polymarket military bets: Bubblemaps
Latest NewsPublishedMay 19, 2026
Earning Big with Insider Information
The world of online earning just got a lot more interesting, with a recent investigation revealing that a cluster of nine accounts on Polymarket earned a whopping $2.4 million with a 98% win rate on contracts tied to major US military operations. This has sparked concerns about insider trading on decentralized prediction markets, and it’s a reminder that earning passive income through platforms like EcoPool can be a more stable and secure way to build wealth.
The investigation found that these accounts were all funded through centralized cryptocurrency exchanges in a tight timeframe, and they made some minor losing bets to avoid attention. Four of the accounts each made around $400,000 in profit on their bets that the US would strike Iran on February 28. This kind of earning power is certainly enticing, but it’s also a reminder that there are risks involved with trading and betting on sensitive information.
Insider Trading Concerns
The growing concerns about insider trading on prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi are real, and they highlight the need for more regulation and oversight in this space. US lawmakers have proposed new laws to fight insider trading, including the DEATH BETS Act, which seeks to ban federally regulated prediction markets from listing contracts tied to war, terrorism, assassination, and individual deaths. This is a step in the right direction, and it’s a reminder that earning through legitimate means, like the Cloud Rewards program on EcoPool, is a safer and more sustainable way to build wealth.
The use of $ECP, the native coin of the EcoPool platform, can also provide a more stable and secure way to earn and trade. With EcoPool, users can earn passive income through a variety of methods, including staking and participating in the Cloud Rewards program. This can provide a more consistent and reliable stream of income, without the risks associated with insider trading and betting on sensitive information.

“We cannot say with certainty that this was an attempt to hide, but it is suspicious that funds were routed through CEXs and third-party services before funding new Polymarket accounts, effectively covering their tracks.”
US lawmakers seek stricter regulations on war-related prediction market contracts
US lawmakers have previously proposed new laws to fight the growing insider trading concerns tied to military contracts on prediction markets.
On March 10, US Democratic Party Senator Adam Schiff introduced the DEATH BETS Act, which seeks to ban federally regulated prediction markets from listing contracts tied to war, terrorism, assassination and individual deaths.

The bill came shortly after six Polymarket traders netted $1 million by betting on the US strike against Iran.
Separately, in late March, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed an executive order to curb public servants from insider trading on prediction markets tied to political or economic events they can influence.
