Polymarket CEO responds to platform investigation: the current U.S. government’s last-ditch effort driven by political motives
ChainCatcher message, Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan responded on X regarding the platform's investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice: "It is frustrating that the current administration would make a last-ditch effort to go after companies they believe are associated with political opponents.
We are firmly committed to a nonpartisan stance, and today is no exception, but the current administration should engage in some self-reflection and recognize that taking a more business-friendly and entrepreneurial approach could change the fate of this election for them.
Polymarket has provided value to tens of millions of people during this election cycle, while harming no one. We take great pride in this. I can say with my head held high that the future of America, especially the future of American entrepreneurship, has never been brighter. In the face of adversity, we continue to build."
