Odaily Planet Daily News: A user profited $34k by interfering with weather sensors at Paris Airport in the Polymarket weather prediction market. Polymarket previously settled using data from Météo France sensors near Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. The user bought temperature options at a very low price that were far above market expectations. Subsequently, the user used a portable heat source to heat the sensor, causing the readings to spike significantly in a short period and be recorded as the highest temperature of the day. This behavior occurred twice on April 6 and April 15. Météo France has now detected anomalies and filed charges.
