Lost 500k$ dollars in 3 minutes.
Because of a single human weakness of greed
>Trader Gamble8 on Polymarket put $500,000 on NO in the market "Musk will write 90-114 tweets from February 2 to 4, 2026"
-The counter showed 87
-There were minutes left before the close
The profit was already glowing in six figures, and it was safe to take ~$400k clean.
But greed whispered, "What if he's done? What if it goes quiet?"
He didn't come out
And then Elon turned on spam mode.
Result:
The position burned down
Minus $494,896
There is $300 left in the account

The moral in 2026 is simple:
When the market gives you a fat profit, take it and run
Elon never forgives greedy people
