Polymarket suspects that competitor Kalshi is involved in corporate espionage and has compiled an internal document titled “copycat,” recording around ten-plus cases in which suspected products, marketing activities, and interface designs were imitated or preemptively launched. Polymarket market director Matthew Modabber said, “There are just too many coincidences,” including cases such as a free grocery pop-up event in New York and perpetual contract products. Kalshi denies the allegations, calling them “near delusional,” and says it will continue building its products; Kalshi’s investor Paradigm also denies monitoring Polymarket’s office. (New York Post)

Are all the flash mobs in New York copied, and is the marketing team in the same group?

Paradigm also denied it, this matter is getting more and more complicated.

Perpetual contracts can all be hit, the probability is even lower than winning the lottery.

Matt, this tone sounds like he's caught solid evidence, but where's the proof?

Does UI design also count? Figma component libraries are pretty much the same for everyone, right?

Just watching the drama, but I bet on the one with the lower odds.

It's only exciting when Paradigm invests in both companies at the same time, unfortunately.

This plot feels familiar. Is the next step to send a lawyer's letter?

Kalshi says to keep building the product, translation: I can't be bothered to deal with you
