"Lighter specific airdrop date" causes controversy and rulings on Polymarket

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Lighter announced the launch of the LIT token and completed an airdrop today. Based on Eastern Time settlement, the probability that “Lighter airdropped on December 30” on Polymarket has reached 95%. However, the specific airdrop date for Lighter is still within Polymarket’s UMA dispute determination period. A user submitted a dispute to the UMA oracle regarding the “Lighter airdropped on December 29” result, which was marked as “no,” arguing that the “Lighter airdrop on December 29” should be judged as “yes.” According to Eastern Time, the Lighter airdrop occurred exactly within one hour before or after December 29 and December 30, which may have caused the dispute. Odaily Note: Polymarket relies on the UMA oracle to determine the outcome of events. After an event occurs, anyone can report the result to UMA. Once the report is submitted, a dispute period begins, during which anyone can challenge the report if they believe it is incorrect. If no disputes are raised, the result is accepted; if there is a dispute, UMA’s dispute resolution mechanism will decide the final outcome. The dispute resolution process involves UMA token holders voting to determine the correct result. UMA incentivizes honest reporting and punishes malicious behavior.
