$3 million bet on ZachXBT investigation target! Prediction market odds soar, which crypto company will be exposed for insider trading?

SOL6,7%
PUMP4,24%
JUP7,28%

On February 24, on-chain investigator ZachXBT posted on social media that he will release a major investigation into one of the “most profitable companies in the crypto industry” on February 26, predicting a rapid market surge. Betting volume around the event of “the next crypto company exposed for insider trading” has approached $3 million, with market sentiment clearly shifting toward high speculation and information warfare.

This prediction contract mainly reflects traders’ judgments about potential targets rather than confirmed facts. As a blockchain-based prediction platform, Polymarket allows users to trade real-money contracts on real-world events. Its odds are often seen as real-time indicators of market confidence and expectation distribution, making it an important tool for observing unresolved events in the crypto industry after the 2024 US elections.

As of early Asian trading hours, Solana ecosystem liquidity platform Meteora leads with approximately a 43% probability, contributing over $300,000 in trading volume. Community discussions mainly focus on Meme coin initial liquidity mechanisms and early price fluctuation beneficiaries. Additionally, Axiom and Pump.fun follow with 13% and 12% shares respectively, with Pump.fun having the highest single trading volume, indicating significant market disagreement rather than a unified consensus.

Meanwhile, Jupiter and a certain CEX also rank highly in odds, reflecting ongoing discussions about Solana DeFi routing mechanisms, token launch schedules, and “whale-friendly liquidity.” Notably, the odds for Axiom, Pump.fun, and Jupiter have dropped over 30% since opening, while Meteora’s advantage has widened, suggesting speculative funds are shifting from dispersed guesses to more concentrated judgments.

However, prediction markets fundamentally price beliefs rather than evidence. Current odds only represent the collective guesses of thousands of participants based on public information, historical investigation styles, and social cues, and do not constitute any substantive accusations. As the investigation release date approaches, crypto market sentiment, insider trading risk expectations, and on-chain investigation developments may continue to influence project attention and capital flows in the short term.
