Polymarket markets resolve through UMA token votes.
uma.rocks is the largest UMA voter.
uma.rocks is a group of Polymarket traders with positions in the markets they vote on.
What just happened:
Clavicular claimed he got a girl pregnant 10 days after meeting her. Polymarket had a market on it. Resolution required a credible claim. He made the claim between bits on a podcast. No test. No doctor. No reporting. 10 days is biologically too early for a confirmed pregnancy test.
Scout is a key
uma.rocks member. Scout wrote in the dispute discord that resolving YES "rewards exactly the kind of non-credible claim the rules were written to exclude." Scout was also one of the largest YES holders in the market.
Scout then pushed
uma.rocks to vote YES.
The vote by individual users: 70% Too Early, 30% YES. The vote by token weight: 33% Too Early, 67% YES.
67% won. Largest discrepancy between individual voters and token weight in UMA history according to other voters in the discord.
The person who posted first in the evidence rationale for
uma.rocks is banned from Polymarket for spoofing.
The price chart is attached. You can see the market move at each moment a
uma.rocks member posted their vote direction. Voters were following a price signal set by the same people casting the deciding votes.
Scout was removed from
uma.rocks after this. The structure that allowed it is still there.
We're working on something to fix this, open source, if you want to contribute, dm me
