🌶️ 5. Spicy Take
"Position Abolished" at 30% on the Next Supreme Leader market is the most underpriced contract on Polymarket right now.At 30¢, you're getting 3.3:1 odds on the end of 45 years of theocratic rule in Iran. The supreme leader is dead, the military is being destroyed from the air, and the world's most powerful military has stated regime change as an objective.
Fair value: 40-45%. This is our next play if it doesn't move before Monday.
