      Polymarket is (or was, anyway) not operating within the US. These are non US people threatening the journalist.

        It was not for a short period of time, but since 2025 it does.

        My point that it was originated in US and is US based company that operates in US and globally - the same US of A which recently began fighting gambling in games, specifically Valve games.

        Also, just recalled that US has a literal gambling city. Hi-fucking-larious.
