Rapper Preme's Super Bowl bet fails, losing $178,000 because "dance counts as a performance"

Odaily Planet Daily reports that, according to Lookonchain monitoring, rapper Preme placed a bet on Polymarket that Cardi B and Drake would not perform at the Super Bowl LX halftime show, with a total wager of approximately $185,000. Due to Preme’s close relationship with Drake, there was speculation that he had insider information. However, on-chain data shows that Preme’s associated wallet 9hDJHg has transferred funds multiple times to Stake.com, indicating he is also an experienced gambler. During the halftime show, Cardi B took the stage to dance, and Polymarket categorized the dance as a “performance,” causing Preme to lose his bet and incur a loss of about $178,000. Afterwards, he posted on X that “dancing should not count as a performance,” then deleted the post.
