Hard to trust this platform after ruling was based on consensus & not truth. Congrats to the communists who let big whales dictate the market (and not truth) on their $5 gains. I will not be using Polymarket again anytime soon. Going to stick to honest platforms based on truth. Very let down by this platform, and it was only my first time here, lmao. If big whales can dictate the price of what truth is worth, and its worth $0, I have no business here.

What happened with the Tiktok bet is something ridiculously obvious that it was a last-minute scam, as the whales did not expect tiktok to continue trading. The whales had too much money on the losing side, but they controlled the bet. Simple. You have to be a good loser, but only when the rules are followed. Luckily it's my first time and I only put a few dollars, and I've realized that polymarket doesn't have the control of those who create and control the bets, because I've seen several decisions made by whales even when the real result has changed.

Calling someone a retard is by itself a retarded thing. But it's double retarded for someone with such a primitive argumentation like yours..

Let's have it clear and if you don't get it, i won't discuss with you, you simply are retarded. The market: TikTok banned in the US before May 2025? A law which banned tiktok was created and took effect on January 19th as the company was not sold, the app was banned by default as it was not adquired as statet. It doesn't say, if after the ban trump grants 75 more days, no. it was banned and that was all.

So many people are so quick to dunk on people who lost their money. And like I get that there was a lot of gloating from both sides, but there were plenty of people who genuinely believed in what they were betting on. I read the polymarket clarification, and saw all of the news articles, but I genuinely believed that didn't hold up in accordance with the rules of this bet. Obviously that faith was misplaced, but I still do believe the wrong call was made. Now I'm sure there will be people clowning on me when they see I lost $1000, and that's fine, that's your right. However, also keep in mind that some of us are just normal people. I had some money that I made off of xrp and instead of withdrawing it, I decided to try and invest it in this market. I'm tired of watching my wife and I bust our butts day in and day out only to never improve financially, and I just wanted to give her a better life. Now I'm sure most of you don't care at all about my "sob" story, and 1k is chump change to a lot of you, but just keep in mind when you're gloating that despite you thinking the people on the no side deserve it (especially to the ones who were fighting against you in the comments), that there were plenty of normal people who just wanted a win for once
