A trader on crypto-based prediction market Polymarket bet over $1 million on President Joe Biden not finishing his term, despite the President committing to the contrary in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39947087/biden-says-history-is-in-your-hands-in-oval-office-speech-the-best-way-forward-is-to-pass-the-torch">his Wednesday speech</a>.
What Happened: Besides betting $1 million on the President resigning early, &#8216;<a href="https://polymarket.com/profile/0x1d04d5b13ba31ca6f3b9526ded9cfe43519ced05">Anon1933</a>&#8216; also wagered over $100,000 on Biden resigning before July 31 and almost $20,000 on the President stepping down before the end of August. The trader is currently down over $300,000 on their positions.
Polymarket traders currently assign a <a href="https://polymarket.com/market/will-biden-complete-his-term-as-president">29% chance</a> the President does not serve out his term, a <a href="https://polymarket.com/market/will-biden-resign-by-july-31">2% chance</a> of a resignation before the end of the month and a <a href="https://polymarket.com/market/will-biden-announce-resignation-by-august-31">9% chance</a> of President Biden resigning by the end of August. 
Over $12 million has been traded on the market for President Biden to finish his term. Odds dropped as low as 46% on Monday amid rumors about the President&#8217;s health. President Biden did not address his health in his Wednesday speech, focusing instead on his legacy and the rationale for stepping back from being the Democratic nominee.

Why It Matters: Polymarket, a decentralized prediction markets platform, has shattered its monthly trading volume record in July, surpassing $275 million and highlighting the growing interest in crypto-based betting on political outcomes, The Block reported.
The platform&#8217;s unprecedented surge in activity is primarily driven by users eager to wager on U.S. political events.
Following President Biden&#8217;s withdrawal from the race, the platform indicates a <a href="https://polymarket.com/market/will-kamala-harris-win-the-2024-democratic-presidential-nomination">94% chance</a> for Vice President Kamala Harris to secure the Democratic nomination.
