About the “$光源 FDV by end of May 31st” market resolution and final settlement 👇
✦ What Happened
During the resolution process for the “$光源 FDV by end of May 31st” market on 42, we reviewed the $光源 trading activity and identified concerns regarding the integrity of the valuation snapshot.
During this review, we observed trading activity near the resolution window (June 1, 2026, 00:00:00 UTC) involving wallets:
✧ 0x7260...c45e (https://t.co/uq0lhjZ7uN) (Buy orders: May 31, 2026, 23:58:36 UTC — 23:59:56 UTC; Sell orders: June 1, 2026, 00:01:23 UTC — 00:17:22 UTC)
✧ 0x7e03...d90c (https://t.co/GMUt8bXPoq) (Buy orders: May 31, 2026, 23:58:04 UTC — 23:59:56 UTC; Sell orders: June 1, 2026, 00:01:38 UTC — 00:17:22 UTC)
Our investigation suggests that these wallets are connected to a specific 42 wallet, the same address that subsequently became the primary holder of the $500K–$1M outcome:
✧ 0x3534...1792 (https://t.co/fxroWlHMVL)
Based on the information available to us, we concluded that this activity materially affected the valuation snapshot that would otherwise have been used for settlement, and did not reflect fair market conditions.
