Prediction markets being manipulated is no longer just an assumption, but an inevitable issue🔥 AI fake public opinion, big players dumping and pumping, foreign capital flowing secretly... this is the true portrait of the 2028 US election.



The most absurd part is that the cost of manipulating the market isn't actually that high; it mainly depends on liquidity. Low-liquidity small coin markets are also susceptible to dumps, and prediction markets follow the same logic. A big player with a few million dollars can stir up price fluctuations, then CNN starts reporting, public opinion begins to ferment, and herd mentality takes off💥

But there's a contradiction here—the impact of manipulation is actually much smaller than we think. Historical data shows that voters' reactions to "who is leading" are not as sensitive as imagined, and voter turnout remains almost unchanged. The truly frightening part isn't that manipulation can change votes, but that it can destroy trust and trigger an endless cycle of "it's all a conspiracy."

The reality is: prediction markets do have value, especially in an era where AI is everywhere and traditional polls have already fallen apart. But the premise is the need for regulation, transparency, and liquidity thresholds. Otherwise, it becomes a casino of shell games, and retail investors end up getting cut.

It feels like this wave of prediction markets is about to explode, but the real opportunity lies in active markets that are difficult to manipulate, not in hot coins that make headlines every day🚀
