Bubblemaps Rejects Claims Linking Polymarket Trader to WLFI Co-Founder, Sparking Debate

BeInCrypto
Bubblemaps refuted claims linking a profitable Polymarket trader to a WLFI co-founder, despite analyst Andrew 10 GWEI defending his speculative findings.

Summary

Blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps publicly rejected growing speculation that a Polymarket trader who profited significantly from a bet on Nicolás Maduro leaving office was connected to a World Liberty Financial (WLFI) co-founder, Steven Witkoff.

The controversy began after several wallets placed large, profitable bets on Maduro's removal just hours before the announcement, leading researchers like Andrew 10 GWEI to suggest insider trading. Andrew 10 GWEI highlighted on-chain patterns, including similar transaction amounts and ENS domain names like "StCharles.SOL" linked to the funding wallets, suggesting a connection to Steven Charles Witkoff.

Bubblemaps countered that the logic was weak, arguing that time gaps between transfers were insignificant and that focusing only on SOL inflows ignored other potential deposit methods. Andrew 10 GWEI responded by clarifying that his analysis was a cautious hypothesis, not a direct accusation, defending the focus on SOL as an efficient path and citing compounding coincidences as the basis for his speculation.
