New Account Bets Israel Strikes Lebanon Today; Top Trader Capitulates

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account has been continuously placing market orders over the past 14 hours, betting that Israel will strike Lebanon on January 9. The probability surged from 31% at entry to a high of 78% and currently sits at 64%.

Opposing this move was a high-conviction "No" bettor (Account: 0x9eb1f9602242b2218f55275fbab16e7eb239fc21) active since last November. With 20 historical positions focused solely on strike dates, they boasted an 85% win rate and over $10,000 in profit.

However, following the new account's aggressive entry, this veteran trader has spent the last 10 hours selling off their "No" positions at a loss, realizing a deficit exceeding $6,000.

Israel has launched multiple airstrikes against Hezbollah and Hamas targets in recent days, with Polymarket markets from January 2 to January 8 all settling as "Yes."

Three New Accounts Bet Nearly $30k on Khamenei's Ouster This Month

On the prediction market Polymarket, multiple new accounts have placed bets over the past day that Iranian leader Ayatollah Khamenei will cease to be in power this month. Notably, three of these new accounts have accumulated positions large enough to make them the top three holders of "Yes" shares. The market probability has risen from 12% just 12 hours ago to 18% currently.

A key driver behind this surge is Trump's recent interview remark that "Khamenei is planning to flee," alongside his reiteration that the U.S. will take action if the Iranian regime violently suppresses protesters.

Suspected Insider Uses Tornado Cash to Bet on US Strike Against Colombia

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account funded via the privacy protocol Tornado Cash deposited $12,000 one hour ago and executed market buys betting that the US will strike Colombia before April. This activity caused the probability to briefly spike from 7% to 42%; it currently settles at 9%.

Tornado Cash is an Ethereum-based mixing protocol used to anonymize cryptocurrency transactions. While used for privacy, it is often associated with illicit activities and has been sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury.

Following the U.S. raid on Venezuela, Trump criticized Colombian President Petro, stating he "loves making cocaine to sell to the U.S.," and responded "sounds good" to questions regarding potential military action. However, on January 8—following a phone call with Petro—Trump posted that the two would meet at the White House, describing the call as a "great honor," a complete reversal from his previous hostility.

Multiple New Addresses Bet $123k on Khamenei Ouster by Jan 31

On the prediction market Polymarket, multiple new addresses have placed bets that Ayatollah Khamenei will cease to be the Supreme Leader of Iran before the end of January. The probability for this specific outcome has risen 13% and currently stands at 22%.

Massive anti-government protests have erupted across Iran, posing the most severe internal challenge to the theocratic regime in recent years. The Supreme Leader has refused to make concessions, labeling protesters as agents of foreign powers and signaling a hardline crackdown. Meanwhile, authorities have implemented an internet blackout as the situation escalates further.

On the prediction market Polymarket, four new accounts have placed bets over the last 3 days that the US will acquire part or all of Greenland. Currently, the probability for a full acquisition stands at 17%, with partial acquisition at 23%. Among these four, account 0x0cf2 holds additional positions betting that "Trump will not visit Greenland before April" and that the "US will invade Greenland this year."

Address with No On-Chain History Bets on US/Israel Strike on Iran This Month

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account deposited funds 11 hours ago and wagered that the US or Israel will strike Iran this month. This market was created three days ago, and the probability currently stands at 60%.

Fund tracing reveals that the on-chain address received a deposit of 3 ETH from Bitstamp and transferred the entire amount to Polymarket. The address has no prior on-chain activity.

Recently, Trump stated that the US is considering "very tough options" regarding Iran. However, media reports citing senior Department of Defense officials indicate they have warned Trump that a potential military strike on Iran requires more time for preparation. Conversely, Iran has warned that if the US attacks, Israeli and US bases in the Middle East will become legitimate targets.

Top Holder Adds $20k to Ceasefire Bet; Funds Linked to Defunct Australian Crypto Platform

On the prediction market Polymarket, within the last three hours, the previously reported new address betting on a Russia-Ukraine ceasefire this month has added over $20,000 to their position. They are now the largest holder of "Yes" shares, controlling 22% of the total market. The probability currently stands at 4%.

On-chain fund tracing links this address to the ENS domain "grineo.eth." According to X user @eyeonchains, this domain is suspected to belong to GrineoPay, an Australian digital currency payment platform founded in 2022 that announced it was ceasing operations in January 2025.

Fund Trail: 0x1066 -> 0xC066 -> 0x1606 -> Polymarket 0x1066 -> grineo.eth

Since January 9, Russia has employed various strike methods—including Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missiles—resulting in multiple casualties. The overall conflict has escalated, showing no signs of a ceasefire.

Multiple New Addresses Bet $43.5k on Fed Cutting Rates by 25bps in Jan

On the prediction market Polymarket, multiple new addresses have opened positions totaling $43.5k over the past 12 hours—at an average price of 5 to 7 cents—betting that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points at its January meeting. The implied probability for a 25bps cut has surged from 2.5% to a high of 7% in the last three days, signaling the rates market's reaction to the criminal investigation into Chair Jerome Powell.

The U.S. Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation based on grand jury subpoenas and threatened potential charges against Powell. The probe focuses on his congressional testimony regarding the renovation of the Federal Reserve headquarters and related budget issues—a move by the White House widely viewed as an unprecedented challenge to the Fed's independence. Powell immediately issued a rare video response, emphasizing this as political pressure on the Fed's decision-making rather than a mere investigation into a single event. While President Trump denied involvement in the investigation's specifics, he acknowledged the conflict centers on disagreements over interest rate policy.

Address Funded by $10M+ via Tornado Cash Bets on Khamenei Ouster; No CEX History

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account has wagered that Khamenei will lose his position as Supreme Leader of Iran this month. The current market probability sits at 20%. The account holds over $15 million in on-chain assets, funded entirely by more than 30 separate transfers—each nearly $300k—from the mixing protocol Tornado Cash, with no record of interaction with centralized exchanges (CEX).

Fund Trail: Mixer -> 0x7a79 -> Three New Wallets -> Polymarket

In the past 24 hours, Khamenei publicly warned the U.S. to stop its "deceptive acts" and reliance on "traitorous mercenaries," as the protest death toll rose to 648 with over 10,000 arrests. Meanwhile, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham warned Khamenei to "watch out for drones," mocking rumors of his potential flight to Russia.

Three Suspicious Accounts Bet $31k on Rick Rieder for Fed Chair

On the prediction market Polymarket, three suspicious accounts have placed bets at the 4–5 cent range that Trump will appoint Rick Rieder as the next Federal Reserve Chairman. Rieder was added to this market on August 13 of last year. The current probability sits at 7%, and these three accounts are now among the top 20 holders of "Yes" positions.

On January 8, in an interview with The New York Times, Trump stated he had made his decision but has not yet disclosed the nominee. He spoke positively of Kevin Hassett, calling him "absolutely one of the people I like." Meanwhile, Rick Rieder serves as the CIO of Global Fixed Income at BlackRock, managing trillions of dollars in bonds and macro assets. While Trump is scheduled to meet him privately soon, Rieder lacks a background with the Fed, and his appointment would likely face significant political pressure.

New Wallet Funds via OKX to Bet $9k on Exchange's IPO This Year

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account withdrew funds from OKX and deposited them into Polymarket within the last 24 hours to wager $9k that OKX will IPO this year. This user has instantly become the top holder of "Yes" shares in the market.

Recent reports indicate that OKX's institutional business is undergoing a major restructuring, cutting approximately one-third of its sales team as part of a pivot toward a more traditional institutional client coverage model. While this adjustment suggests a strategic repositioning, there has been no direct announcement or official confirmation regarding an IPO plan for 2026.

On the prediction market Polymarket, four accounts have placed bets within the last day that the U.S. will strike Iran before January 16. One is a new account, while the other three trade exclusively in Iran-related markets. The current probability for this outcome sits at 23%.

On Truth Social, Trump stated that if Iran shoots peaceful protesters, the U.S. "will come to the rescue," urging protesters to continue and declaring that "help is on the way."

Multiple markets related to a U.S. strike on Iran have seen varying gains in the last 48 hours. The probability of a strike by January 31 peaked at 76% earlier today and currently stands at 62%—marking an increase of over 350% since this channel's initial report on January 5.

Suspected Hypersphere Capital Wallet Bets on Next Fed Chair

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new account executed market orders ten minutes ago betting that Trump will nominate Rick Rieder as the next Federal Reserve Chairman. This buying pressure drove their average entry price to 18 cents, far exceeding the 8% probability observed over the last two days.

Fund tracing reveals the address is flagged by Arkham as likely belonging to Hypersphere Capital, a venture capital firm focused on blockchain and DeFi. The address held assets peaking at $30 million early last year and utilizes a Coinbase Prime account, a service dedicated to institutional investors such as asset managers and market makers.

Fox Business reports that Trump is scheduled to interview Rick Rieder for the role at the White House this Thursday. In a CNBC interview, Rieder stated that the Fed Chair position is independent and reiterated the need to bring interest rates down to 3%—a reduction of at least another 50 basis points—to support economic growth.

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new address has wagered a total of $54.8k over the past 12 hours across the markets for January 15–18, betting that the US will strike Iran. Currently, the address is down $40.8k on these positions.

Tensions between the US and Iran remain high, though no direct military strike has occurred yet. Over the past week, President-elect Trump’s national security team has signaled a tougher stance, with nominee Pete Hegseth suggesting that preemptive action against Iranian nuclear facilities should be considered if provoked.

Meanwhile, Iran has conducted missile tests and launched proxy attacks on Red Sea shipping via the Houthis, prompting a response from the US Navy. However, these actions have not yet involved a direct strike on Iranian soil.

Yen Weakness Fuels Inflation Fears; BOJ March Rate Hike Probability Soars

On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability of a Bank of Japan "25bps Rate Hike" in March currently stands at 26%, a significant jump from just 8% three days ago. Meanwhile, the probability of "No Change" for the January policy decision remains stable at 97%.

The Bank of Japan is closely monitoring the potential impact of a weak Yen on inflation. Although the central bank is expected to maintain interest rates at its upcoming policy meeting, exchange rate dynamics could prompt a reassessment of the timeline for future hikes, potentially forcing earlier action.

Officials believe the influence of a weak Yen on prices is intensifying, particularly as companies increasingly pass rising input costs on to consumers, which could further exacerbate inflationary pressures. Despite the BOJ raising benchmark rates just last month, the previously anticipated pace of hikes—roughly every six months—may face uncertainty if the Yen continues to weaken.

New Address Bets $42k on Péter Magyar as Next Hungarian PM

On the prediction market Polymarket, a new address added $8k in the past day to a wager that Péter Magyar will be the next Prime Minister of Hungary. This address, which trades exclusively in this market and has been consistently buying "Yes," has now deployed a total of $42k, making it the second-largest holder.

Péter Magyar’s Tisza Party has surged in recent polls, leading Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz by 10–15 percentage points nationwide. This momentum is driven by a massive rally of approximately 35,000 people in Budapest and a shift among centrist voters disillusioned with Orbán’s long-standing rule. Magyar continues to target corruption within the Orbán administration—highlighting leaked audio recordings alleging bribery involving Fidesz—which has further amplified his political capital amidst ongoing EU funding negotiations.
