A Google employee was charged with commodities fraud for using insider information to win a Polymarket bet about who the most searched for person in 2025 would be (complaint, article).
So far the internet seems confused whether or not this all counts as commodities fraud at all or not and if so, how (this area of law is way too confusing which is one of the reasons I of course never use insider information to bet on polymarket).

My guess would be that this guy wanted the bragging rights to say he won earned his money by being an extra special smart boy rather than just a wagey at cyberpunk mega corporation alpha.
