BlockBeats News, August 21st, the trading volume on Polymarket for betting on NBA star LeBron James to be elected President of the United States in 2028 has reached $1.9 million, surpassing the total amounts for US Vice President Harris, California Governor Gavin Newsom, and US Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

However, Polymarket data shows that James' current election probability is only 0.3%, and the $1.9 million trading volume may be attributed to some users engaging in wash trading to potentially receive future airdrops.
