A #Google employee has been arrested and charged after federal prosecutors say he used confidential Google search‐trend data to place insider bets on Polymarket, earning a $1.2 million payout.
Court documents allege he accessed internal Year in Search 2025 data showing that #D4vd — who is currently jailed and facing murder charges — was trending far higher than the public realized.
He then placed a series of highly accurate bets under the username “AlphaRaccoon” before attempting to conceal the profits.
N Crowd, do you think prediction markets should be regulated like Wall Street?
