Polymarket Resumes International Trading After Third-Party Account Hack
Polymarket temporarily halted international trading after customer accounts were drained in an attack involving an unnamed third-party provider.
The company said the provider was compromised and that the affected accounts lost funds. Trading has since resumed, with Polymarket stating that affected traders will be made whole.
The incident highlights the risk that prediction-market platforms can inherit when they rely on outside providers for parts of their infrastructure.
