Election betting markets face a trust problem from thin and concentrated trading, Athlitical reports

  • Election betting markets face a trust problem from thin and concentrated trading, Athlitical reports — An analysis of 21,811 midterm markets by the Anti-Corruption Data Collective found traders had wagered more than 220 million dollars on 2026 congressional races through September 30, more than double the 92.4 million dollars in all of 2024, and projects 1.4 billion to 1.6 billion dollars by Election Day. Ten wallets control 17 percent of congressional volume on Polymarket and the top 1 percent account for 70 percent. (Athlitical)
