ZachXBT teaser prompts $2.2M in Polymarket bets; Meteora leads

A cryptic post from blockchain investigator ZachXBT triggered more than $2.2 million in bets on Polymarket, where traders wagered on which crypto firm he will expose in an upcoming insider-trading investigation. ZachXBT wrote on X that a "major investigation" will be released on February 26 into one of crypto’s most profitable businesses, alleging insider trading, but he did not name the company.

Within hours, traders piled into prediction bets. Polymarket shows Meteora leading the odds, followed by MEXC, Pump.fun, and World Liberty Financial (WLFI). Meteora has drawn attention for its role as a Solana-based trading infrastructure tied to high-volume meme coin liquidity and for community scrutiny around politically linked meme coin activity, including Trump-related tokens.

MEXC appears on bettors’ lists after repeated mentions in social media debates about listing behavior, whale activity, and alleged insider-style trading patterns in meme coin markets — a point that does not prove wrongdoing but helps explain its placement.
