Clubul secret care face milioane pariind pe ce se întâmplă în lume. Cine sunt „Alfa”?

The Financial Times explores the secretive Alpha group, a collective of elite traders making millions through prediction markets. Members, often anonymous and diverse in background, analyze global events to capitalize on market mispricings. With a focus on probability rather than political beliefs, they have collectively earned around $40 million on Polymarket. Despite their success, many members face personal challenges, including gambling addiction. The prediction market is rapidly growing, with significant daily trading volumes, attracting both serious investors and casual participants. Alpha members view their success as a demonstration of market inefficiencies rather than a belief in the system itself.
