Predicting market gains and risks is often a matter of a fine line. The edgex token delay case is a living textbook example. On December 28th, the official suddenly announced a delay in token issuance, causing the related contracts on Polymarket to plummet—yes dropped from 90% directly to 30%. Those traders who built positions at high levels? They instantly bowed out. This is the truth of on-chain prediction markets: information asymmetry can trigger extreme volatility, and a slight misjudgment could lead to market liquidation. Before placing trades in this arena, you need to carefully consider how much downside you can tolerate.

90% directly drops to 30%, this is the way the prediction market teaches me how to be a person, really amazing. --- Information asymmetry is like a hidden punch; you never see it coming. --- The guys who bought in at high levels are definitely crying without tears; this wave is really brutal. --- Products like Polymarket are stimulating, but the risks are also truly high, you need to have mental preparation. --- Delaying the issuance of tokens is hard to prevent; with on-chain speeds so fast, it's impossible to react in time. --- You need to think clearly about the downward space; otherwise, you'll end up being the one harvested, a bloody lesson. --- Basically, you need a gambling mentality; don't use living expenses to play with this stuff. --- Prediction markets sound very professional, but they are actually information wars; whoever controls the information wins. --- This case clearly shows why position control is necessary; leverage isn't for the faint-hearted. --- The most brutal thing isn't the decline percentage, but the feeling of a sudden drop without warning.

90% down to 30%, this is called going from heaven to hell in an instant. It really hurts to watch.

90% directly drops to 30%, this move is incredible. To put it simply, it's a game of information asymmetry; those who react slowly will always be the ones to get caught.

90% directly drops to 30%, this is the sound of dreams shattering. I have long said that catching the falling knife at high levels is a gamble with your life.
