## Resource

A US soldier used classified intel on the Maduro raid to win $409K on Polymarket. Now he's facing five felonies. Bitcoin stalls at $78K as leverage unwinds. Two very different kinds of risk on display today. Today's key developments: • A US Army soldier faces five felony charges after allegedly using classified intelligence about the Maduro raid to bet $409K on Polymarket — and win. • Aave is rallying DeFi partners to contain the fallout from a $292 million KelpDAO bridge exploit — the largest DeFi security event of the month. • Bitcoin is stalling just below $78,500 as volatility cools and traders unwind leverage — but a monthly close here would be the best quarterly performance since Q4 2024. 📰 Read the full Daily Pulse: https://pulse.tokenmetrics.com/p/a-soldier-bet-409k-on-classified-intel-on-polymarket-apr-24-2026?utm_source=spreaker&utm_medium=audio&utm_campaign=daily_pulse_podcast 🔔 Subscribe for daily crypto market updates! ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.
