Polymarket has disappointed me yet again and I’m now genuinely afraid to trade larger sizes on the platform.After losing $30k this month on the Ukraine-Russia ceasefire market because of an “archive market error,” I got hit with almost the exact same situation today. I was actively trading the “Trump announces US blockade of Hormuz lifted by…?” market when a sudden clarification flipped it from 80% Yes / 20% No to 30% Yes / 70% No in one move. Cost me another ~$20k.Look, nobody is saying markets shouldn’t be clarified. But until recently we at least had proper pre-clarifications. This feels increasingly sloppy and reactive. It really seems like Polymarket has become surprisingly unprofessional lately. Not a good look when people are putting serious money on the line.
Clarifications are so inconcistent, not just the content but how they are made, there should be an SOP
