Green Beret Bet Big on Maduro's Removal While Building Real Estate Empire
Master Sergeant Gannon Ken Van Dyke of the US Army Special Forces is charged with using confidential government information to profit from bets on Nicolás Maduro’s removal via Polymarket, allegedly cashing out about $400,000 after Maduro's capture; prosecutors say he concealed his identity, moved funds through crypto and a foreign vault, then to a brokerage, while running a Fort Bragg-based real estate business and an Airbnb retreat and facing separate insider-trading allegations in a CFTC suit.
