The first month of 2026 Polymarket lore Recap January 2026 – war CHAOS and Insiders

The first month of 2026 Polymarket lore Recap January 2026 – war CHAOS and Insiders

UMA dispute opens the year

We kick off immediately with a hot UMA dispute, but Polymarket intervenes with a clarification. Plot twist: SZA had launched a new song, in the last minute, 2026 style ? Unfortunately, Polynoob didn’t see it in time, he was busy 🙁

Venezuela implodes overnight

War in Venezuela escalates. Maduro disappears and is kidnapped, then found in a New York courtroom – WHAT? In a single night, entire portfolios vanished and one “insider” made a lot. Congratulations… or maybe not.

Double manipulation strikes again

Another double manipulation + “insider trading” ?, nothing new here. It only took one tweet, actually two: one to pump the price, the other to destroy it; LOL

MicroStrategy insider returns

Insiders are back in the “Will MicroStrategy announce a Bitcoin purchase December 30-January 5?” market. They always come back. Why do traders keep giving liquidity to that market? Don’t they read Polynoob?!

Tariffs vs EU – Trump steps back

Tariffs on the EU, negotiations with Greenland, a deal seemed possible – but traders weren’t fooled. The tariffs never happen and Trump takes a step back.

Iran vs USA… again?

Iran x USA once again? The tension builds on the markets. Here we go again.

US Government Shutdown 2.0

US Gov Shutdown 2.0 – but partial. Polymarket traders predicted it once again. Pattern recognition at its finest.

Waltz disappears

Waltz vanishes from the radars. Was one scandal really enough? That’s it?!

Polymarket is a partner of MLS

An incredible new partnership with MLS, but remember, it’s football, not soccer! To all Polymarket sports traders

New Epstein files arrive

New Epstein files by the end of January 24. Everything seemed already written with the price over 70%, but then… something changed. There was nothing. The house of cards of one trader collapsed, along with his mental health? Poor Q…

Epstein blackmail evidence market

New Epstein files just before the end of the month reveal absurd new information, including what appears to be blackmail evidence.

Traders 🙂 immediately propose the market: “Epstein blackmail evidence released by March 31?” Thonker didn’t make it in time to dispute, sad…

Moltbook: machines are rebelling

The machines are rebelling. Only Polymarket traders with their superior minds can defeat the AI. LET’S UNITE, TRADERS!

The Apocalypse Clock

The apocalypse is near traders predicted it better than the Doomsday Clock itself! When the end comes, at least our portfolios will be dead too…
