One Whale Doubles Down on Khamenei Ouster; Total Bet Hits $336.7k
On the prediction market Polymarket, the previously reported account "Curseaaaaaaaa"—which had already wagered $177.5k that Ayatollah Khamenei would step down before March 31 or June 30—added $159.1k over the past day to the bet that he will step down before March 31. The account’s total exposure on Khamenei’s ouster has now reached $336.7k.
Over the past two days, the Khamenei regime has maintained core stability following hardline diplomacy and massive crackdowns. Khamenei warned that US military strikes would trigger a regional war, while the Iranian parliament passed countermeasures designating EU military forces as "terrorist organizations." Simultaneously, security forces have conducted mass arrests of protesters. Overall, while the system retains strong control amidst internal discontent and external pressure, its long-term legitimacy and social stability face significant challenges.

New Address Bets $46.1k on Fed 25bp Hike in March; Becomes Top Holder
On the prediction market Polymarket, within the last 12 hours, a new account wagered $46.1k that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) in March. Entering at an average price of 1¢ (current price 2¢), this address now holds 3.57 million "Yes" shares, making it the top holder for this specific outcome.
Market pricing currently suggests a much higher probability of rates remaining unchanged compared to a hike or cut. St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem stated that current monetary policy has reached a "neutral level," arguing there is no need for further cuts or aggressive easing, and emphasized that inflation remains above the target.

"Who Will Be Named" Market Sees Clean Sweep of 45 VIPs; 95% Odds for More Epstein Files by Feb 6
On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability for the market "Trump admin releases more Epstein docs by Feb 6?" has hit 95%.
In the latest batch of Epstein files released by the Trump administration last weekend, the most significant revelations reconfirmed close ties between certain celebrities and Epstein. Consequently, in the Polymarket betting pool "Who will be named in the new Epstein files," all 45 listed high-profile figures were mentioned, resulting in a "Yes" settlement for every single name.
There is currently no official announcement confirming an imminent release. The DOJ and FBI have merely stated they will "continue to review and disclose as necessary" without providing a specific timeline.
A primary driver behind the high probability for the February 6 deadline is the market's extremely loose resolution rules: any release within the window—including duplicates, partial files, non-substantive materials, or documents previously known through media reporting—qualifies as a "Yes."

Trump Confidant Witkoff to Meet Iran Officials; Allegedly Linked to $400k Insider Bet on Maduro
On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability that "Witkoff meets Iranian officials by Feb 28?" currently stands at 87%.
Steve Witkoff is a co-founder of WLFI (a project spearheaded by Trump’s son, Eric) and a prominent New York real estate developer. A major donor, he has shared a close friendship with Trump for nearly 40 years.
Previously, an insider account on Polymarket—which profited approximately $400k by placing heavy bets on Maduro’s capture shortly before the event—was allegedly linked to Witkoff.
Recently appointed as Trump's Special Envoy to the Middle East, Witkoff stated he intends to meet with Iranian officials soon to discuss "diplomatic solutions," including potential ceasefires, security guarantees, and sanctions relief. This move comes in response to escalating protests in Iran and Trump’s pledge to "quickly end the conflict."

Whale Increases Bet on US Strike on Iran by $34.2k; Suspicious Wallet Adds $12.3k

Ukraine and its allies recently proposed a "multi-level ceasefire plan" with talks scheduled in Abu Dhabi. However, Russia launched major airstrikes on energy infrastructure ahead of negotiations, violating temporary truce pledges.

Five Suspicious Addresses Bet $13.4k on US/Israel Striking Iran
On the prediction market Polymarket, within the last day, three new addresses wagered $6k that the US or Israel will strike Iran before Feb 28. Additionally, two high-win-rate accounts wagered $7.4k that the US will strike Iran before Feb 28.
As part of diplomatic efforts to de-escalate ongoing tensions, the US and Iran have agreed to hold nuclear talks this week in Muscat, Oman. Iran seeks to limit the agenda to its nuclear program, while the US insists on expanding the scope to include missile programs and regional proxy groups. These talks reportedly nearly collapsed due to disagreements over the venue and agenda. Separately, Trump held a "long and comprehensive phone call" with Xi Jinping to discuss multiple international issues, including Iran. During the call, the US pressured allies and partners to further isolate Tehran, while both leaders also discussed other major diplomatic and security matters.

Claude 5 'No-Show' Crashes Feb Odds; New Account Bets $10k on Release Before April
On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account wagered $10.5k that Claude 5 will be released by March 31. The position was entered at a cost of 93¢, and the current probability for "Yes" stands at 85%.
Four days ago, a user posted about discovering a "claude-sonnet-5@20260203" tag in Google Vertex AI logs, sparking rumors of an imminent February 3 release.
However, yesterday saw the release of Claude Opus 4.6 instead. While the update delivered broad performance enhancements, it lacked any information regarding Claude 5, causing the probabilities for February 14 and February 28 release deadlines to plummet. The probability of a release before Feb 28 dropped from 95% yesterday to 52% today.
Community consensus has shifted, with widespread speculation that Claude 5 may be delayed until late Q1 or Q2 to further refine agentic capabilities, multimodality, and safety alignment.

"Ethereum MicroStrategy" Bitmine 73% Likely to Announce ETH Buy Within 3 Days
On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability for the new market "Bitmine to announce ETH buy Feb 3-9" currently stands at 73%.

AI Arms Race Intensifies; Gemini 3.5 Likely to Launch in H1
On the prediction market Polymarket, a new market titled "Gemini 3.5 release by ___?" went live yesterday. The current probability of a release within the first half of the year stands at 85%, while the odds of a launch before March 31 are 27%.
Google's development of the Gemini series has established a cadence of "one major annual version plus a semi-annual iteration." With the Gemini 3.0 series released in November–December 2025, the market widely consensus is that Google will not let it stand alone for a full year, necessitating the rollout of an enhanced version 3.5 in the first half of 2026 to maintain competitiveness.
Beyond official actions often interpreted as precursors to a launch—such as the deprecation of old models and preparations for Google I/O—the community recently discovered a model codenamed "snow bunny." Featuring a parameter scale distinct from Gemini 3.0, it is widely speculated to be the 3.5 version currently under testing.

Trump Seeks Control of Local Elections; Impeachment Risk Looms if House Lost
On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability for the new market "Trump admin to federalize elections this year?" stands at 15%.
The current US election system is federalist, with states responsible for management—including voter registration, polling stations, counting, and certification—while the federal government offers only guidance and limited oversight. Trump's proposed "federalization" implies direct federal takeover of administrative control, such as appointing federal officials to handle counting or verification, effectively replacing state agencies to ensure "fairness."
On February 2, Trump stated on a podcast that "the Republican Party should federalize voting" and "we should take over the elections in at least 15 places," comments interpreted as an intent to intervene in "corrupt" states. However, the Constitution delegates election management to the states; a federal takeover would require legislation or executive action and is likely unconstitutional. Meanwhile, Polymarket currently shows an 82% probability that Democrats will retake the House of Representatives in the midterm elections—a body that holds the power to impeach the President.
