Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently defended the existence of a Hezbollah betting section on Polymarket, a decentralized prediction platform. Polymarket hosts bets on events like whether Israel will invade Lebanon or if the U.S. military will intervene in the region. Some critics, like crypto community member “Legendary,” argue that betting on conflicts trivializes war. Buterin responded, saying these markets offer insight into realistic probabilities, providing more accurate predictions than online speculation. He clarified that such platforms aren’t about profiting from tragic events but encouraging accountability.
