Show Notes
P2P.me, a stablecoin startup, faced backlash after placing bets on Polymarket to predict their own fundraising success. Despite pulling in under fifteen thousand dollars, they apologized for the move, which was intended to show conviction but crossed a line. The wagers focused on hitting a six million dollar milestone out of a possible one hundred forty million commitment. The move sparked confusion and eroded trust, with big backers caught off guard and some unaware of the bets placed. P2P.me plans to implement a new internal policy on prediction markets and let their product and mission do the talking from here on out.
