Pierre Poilievre, the leader of Canada's Conservative Party and a Bitcoin advocate, is favored by traders on Polymarket to succeed Justin Trudeau as Canada's Prime Minister. Trudeau, a known crypto critic, resigned on Monday, prompting increased speculation about his successor.
Approximately $278,000 in bets have been placed on Poilievre, giving him an 88% chance of winning the next election. This development highlights Polymarket's role in political forecasting and the growing interest in Poilievre's political ascent, especially among crypto enthusiasts.
