Forecasting the TGE timing options for Lighter, Edge, and a certain AI project in the market is quite interesting. Starting from early October, the odds for [Yes] once soared above 80%, but by the end of December, it directly dropped to 2-3%, and it looks like the settlement will reset to zero on January 1st. The combined funds collected by the three platforms exceeded one million USD.

The tricks behind this are worth noting for players—there are obvious signs of manipulation. It is recommended that when you encounter such options, if you really want to participate, remember to control your betting size. Small bets are the safest way to test the waters. Placing large bets on uncertain long-term predictions often just means giving money to the house.

80% drops directly to 2%, this wave of cutting is really ruthless, the bankrolls' move --- Another "carefully designed" prediction market, a million dollars gone just like that --- Playing small amounts is okay, but participating in such long-term schemes with large sums is just asking for trouble --- Platforms like Lighter and Edge are getting more and more shady, and this time they got exploited again --- From 80% to 2%, I really want to see where the funds flowed in the middle --- Prediction markets are like this, retail investors will always be the cash cows --- Controlling the scale is an excellent suggestion, how many people have suffered this loss and still don't learn their lesson --- Even with such obvious manipulation, some people still fall for it, I’m amazed

80% directly plummeting to 2%, this move is really ruthless, the market maker is making a killing this time --- Million-dollar harvest... I just want to ask, which of these three platforms is the organizer? --- Small-scale testing is correct to say, large-scale heavy betting on long-term predictions is basically a money-making activity --- Lighter and Edge's moves this time really make people distrust the prediction market --- Damn, trusting an 80% odds? I should have realized there was a problem earlier --- Manipulation by humans has long been the norm in prediction markets, just get used to it --- Long-term options like TGE are inherently risky, it seems we need to be more cautious --- The market maker's tactics are quite consistent, accumulating chips then dumping, a classic routine to cut leeks --- No wonder so many people lost everything, it turns out they were all set up like this --- Next time you encounter such options, just avoid them, it's not worth taking the risk

80% down to 3%? If that's not manipulation, what is? The market maker's recent harvest is truly ruthless.

Wow, 80% directly dropped to 2%. Isn't this the market maker's way of harvesting? A million dollars just disappeared like that.

Same old story, 80% down to 2%, hilarious, the whales really know how to play --- A million-dollar game, I just want to know who is cutting whom --- Saying "small bets to test the waters" sounds sincere, but I bet fifty cents that someone will go all in in the end --- Prediction markets = gambling markets, I’ve learned my lesson this time --- Lighter and Edge teaming up to cut the leeks? That’s pretty ruthless --- Long-term predictions really are just about making money, my blood, sweat, and tears prove it --- 80% to 3%, this turnaround is more intense than a plot twist --- Controlling the bet size is just a cliché, the moment you bet, your rationality is gone --- Three platforms working together to cut the leek, this tactic is a bit professional --- Can someone explain if this is called a market or a casino

Damn, dropping from 80% to 2%, this is purely market manipulation by the whales washing out positions. --- Million dollars just gone like that, the prediction market has really turned into a casino. --- Another good show, those who bet heavily for the long term are dead. --- Small-scale testing sounds good, but who doesn't want to go big... and this is the result. --- Three platforms working together to cut the leeks, gotta say, their coordination is quite tight. --- From 80 to 2, this manipulation is way too obvious, isn't anyone reporting it? --- Next time you encounter such a scammy option, just pass, it's not worth it. --- A scale of a million dollars, the whales must be overjoyed. --- Long-term predictions are just a trap, anyone who gets involved will die. --- Controlling the betting size sounds honest, but it would have been better if they said it earlier.

80% drop to 2%? That's a classic pump-and-dump scheme by the manipulators, millions of dollars just gone... You really have to be careful with this kind of prediction market; it looks like someone is manipulating the market. The signs of human manipulation are so obvious, yet people are still all-in. I just can't understand. The suggestion to test with small amounts is reliable; large amounts definitely mean giving money to the main players. The fact that these three platforms can make so much profit indicates that many people still haven't seen through the situation. Next time you encounter options with such drastic changes in odds, it's better to steer clear.
