Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, criticised structural flaws in prediction markets and described how he profited by betting against irrational crowd sentiment. He warned that prediction markets are turning into gambling-like products and urged a shift toward hedging strategies. Buterin said he made about a 16 percent return by placing roughly $440,000 in bets on Polymarket and earning $70,000. He also outlined a hedging-based finance model that could ultimately replace fiat money.
