Polymarket Bets Pay Off as Memecoin Memorializes ‘Dwebate’

But there were also plenty of side bets at stake – and scads of memecoins launched including DWEBATE, DOMALA TRUMPIS, PEPEDENTIAL DEBATES and WW3, which sprung up to satirize the entire spectacle, or to document some of the more memorable zingers. (Many of the memecoin names were not remotely safe for a PG-rated blockchain tech newsletter.) Some Polymarket wagers paid off handsomely when Trump claimed – falsely, according to the Wall Street Journal – that migrants are “eating the dogs” in Springfield, Ohio. (That also sparked a few new memecoins, including EATING DOGS AND CATS.)
