Coplan launched Polymarket in 2020 from his New York City apartment, creating a blockchain-based prediction market where users bet on elections and pop culture events. The platform handled $3.6 billion in wagers during the 2024 presidential race and accurately predicted Donald Trump's win. After facing a $1.4 million CFTC fine in 2022 and an FBI raid, probes cleared up this summer, paving the way for a $2 billion investment from NYSE's parent company that valued it at $9 billion. Coplan, now 27 with a $1 billion stake, sees his path as proof that big visions take over a decade to build.

Key Takeaway

At just 15, high schooler Shayne Coplan emailed the SEC with a bold pitch for a compliant stock exchange on prediction bets. That naive outreach marked the start of a decade-long journey to building a billion-dollar platform.

Guanipa, a close ally of opposition leader María Corina Machado, was freed as part of a government amnesty but rearrested soon after for allegedly violating conditions like public statements—supporters call it a kidnapping amid repression. This follows the U.S. capture of former President Nicolás Maduro and his wife on January 3, with Delcy Rodríguez now acting president; her brother Jorge Rodríguez recently told Newsmax of economic reforms, U.S. cooperation on oil, and no quick elections until stability. Scott warned interim leaders Tuesday to free Guanipa and all political prisoners, as over 390 have been released since Maduro's ouster but skepticism grows over conditional freedoms.

Key Takeaway

Juan Pablo Guanipa stepped out of prison Sunday under amnesty, only to face armed men hours later. Now U.S. Senator Rick Scott is calling it out loud and clear.
