A soldier bet $409K on classified intel. On Polymarket.

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.
