Polymarket Apologizes for Fighter Rescue Market

Decentralized prediction market Polymarket has issued an apology after launching a betting market focused on the status of U.S. pilots involved in recent military actions. The platform acknowledged that the market "should not have been posted" and has since removed it. Polymarket is currently conducting an internal review to understand how the market bypassed its established control mechanisms. This incident highlights potential vulnerabilities in platform oversight and the need for stricter content moderation policies within the decentralized finance space.
