Is Strategy Selling Before May 31st? Polymarket Faces Huge Controversy, Official Planning to Release Statement at 1 AM

Per PolyBeats’ monitoring, there’s a growing dispute over Polymarket’s prediction market titled “Will Strategy sell BTC before May 31?” Earlier today, the market was tilted toward a “No” settlement — but that shifted sharply after Strategy revealed it sold 32 BTC last week. The “Yes” probability briefly spiked to 85% before pulling back to 51%, and the sub-market has already topped $20 million in trading volume. Market rules for the platform state the outcome hinges on Strategy’s BTC sales by the deadline: “Yes” if it sells any BTC before May 31, “No” if it doesn’t. Key info sources include MSTR’s data, on-chain records, and consensus insights from trusted reports. The “Yes” camp argues the result is cut-and-dried, while the “No” side’s main contention is that the sale announcement was made after May 31 and shouldn’t factor into the market’s outcome. Polymarket has now provided an update on the controversy: “We’ve noted the disputes in this market. If clarification is needed, we’ll release a statement at 1:00 PM EDT (1:00 AM Beijing Time) on June 1. No statement by that time means the Polymarket team won’t offer further clarification. Regardless, the order book will settle at 1:00 PM EDT.”
