I have decided to speak publicly.
I am 20 years old. I am a second-year undergraduate student at King’s College London.
I am not a fund. I am not an institution. I am not a professional trader with a team behind me. I am just a student who read the market rule carefully and believed the English words meant what they said.
I put around 35,000 USDC into YES on the Polymarket market about whether MicroStrategy sold any Bitcoin by May 31, 2026.
I did not do that because I was gambling blindly. I did it because I read the rule. I read it again. And again.
The rule said YES if MicroStrategy sold any Bitcoin by May 31.
It did not say the sale had to be publicly disclosed by May 31. It did not say there had to be an SEC filing before the deadline. It did not say later evidence would not count.
To me, that matters.
I have studied enough to know that words matter. Rules matter. English matters. If a market writes one condition before people trade, then after the outcome adds another condition through “context,” ordinary users have no protection.
Without adding extra market context after the fact, I still do not understand how this market can fairly resolve to NO.
These 35,000 USDC are not just numbers on a screen to me. This money matters to my life. I cried for an entire night. I felt helpless in a way I have never felt before. I even had thoughts of ending my life.
But I am still here.
I am still here because I realized this cannot just be about me. If I disappear, the story disappears. If everyone stays quiet, the next person will be alone too. The next market will happen. The next unclear resolution will happen. The next ordinary user will be told to accept it and move on.
That is why I started
#StopPolyScam.
Some people contacted me and told me to launch a meme coin around this. I refused.
I do not want people’s money.
I do not want to turn anger into another token.
I only want fairness.
I want Polymarket to answer one question in plain language:
Where did the written rule say “publicly disclosed by May 31”?
If that rule exists, show it.
If it does not exist, then users should not lose because of a condition that was never written before they traded.
I am asking journalists, lawyers, crypto researchers, public figures, exchange founders, and anyone with influence to look at this carefully. Do not believe me blindly. Look at the rule. Look at the timeline. Look at the evidence. Then ask whether this is how a serious market should work.
I know I am small. I know I may lose. I know many powerful people may ignore this.
But I also know that if written rules can be changed by interpretation after money is already in, then no user is safe.
A market without trust is just a machine that takes risk from ordinary people and gives them silence when they ask questions.
I am not asking for sympathy.
I am asking for fairness.
I am asking for accountability.
I am asking people to help me make sure this does not disappear quietly.
