A US special forces soldier involved in the military operation that captured Nicolas Maduro has been arrested after he allegedly bet on the removal of Venezuela's former leader before the information was publicly available.

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged Gannon Ken Van Dyke after he allegedly made trades on Polymarket, a crypto-powered platform, on the basis of classified information.

"That is clear insider trading and is illegal under federal law," justice department officials said.

Van Dyke, an active-duty soldier in the US Army stationed at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, won more than $409,000 (£303,702) as a result of his bets

Only $409,000? A drop in the ocean compared to Pelosi's insider trading.
 
Well, he didn't give the policy and/or the orders.

But dood. That's just fucked up. He should pay a penalty for this.

A. it's not illegal for congress to inside trade. Though it should be.

B. Does that excuse his crime?

Very smart but not smart enough to get someone else to do it for him he should have got a partner

Got paid in crypto and he could have just collected with a simple off the grid wallet

The dude should change his name to Pelosi. She got filthy rich off of insider trading.
 
"Funny " how the most corrupt nation on the planet seemingly delights in the "execution" of small individuals , but let's corporate and national greed and corruption continue and probably grow .
 
Another nail in the coffin of the US...brought to you by the Trump Administration. Soon our entire army will be mercenaries.
This kind of thing has gone on for years. Thinking it’s only the Trump administration is partisan kookier.

Congress critters, government bureaucrats, and private sector financial insiders have been doing insider trading for decades.

We still don’t know those who placed bets prior to 9/11, but I’m certain the FBI knows.

Nancy Pelosi is a better stock picker than Warren Buffet.

I doubt that we are the most corrupt,

but yes, your point about getting the small individuals while the big wigs and institutions operate freely,

is valid.

I have done well on "insider trading" for a year now watching Trump manipulate the market with his announcements.
