A trader made about $33,000 by exploiting a weather market on Polymarket.
The market was using data from a sensor at Paris airport, and that sensor apparently had no protection. He bet on 22°C, then reportedly heated the air around the sensor with a hair dryer, pushed the reading higher, and won the market.
Genius.
