Will Ghislaine Flip? Maxwell’s DOJ Meeting Sparks Polymarket Frenzy

A swarm of high-stakes prediction markets on Polymarket are placing Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein squarely at the center of a fresh round of speculation, just as Maxwell held a private meeting with the U.S. deputy attorney general.

Markets Bet on Epstein Revelations After Ghislaine Maxwell Talks With Feds

Prediction market Polymarket is buzzing this week with a wave of bets centered around Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell—two names that continue to command public fixation. Traders are wagering on everything from secret files and congressional testimony to potential pardons and high-level resignations, following news that Maxwell met face-to-face with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on July 24.

According to Maxwell’s attorney David Oscar Markus, the meeting was “very productive.” Maxwell answered every question without invoking privilege, suggesting a degree of cooperation not previously seen. On the same day, a House committee issued a subpoena for her to testify publicly on Aug. 11.

The sudden uptick in government attention has spilled into Polymarket. The top-traded Epstein-linked contract is “Will Ghislaine Maxwell testify before Congress in 2025?” currently trading at 38% with $122,000 in volume. Close behind is “Who will leave Trump Administration in 2025?” led by Dan Bongino at 39%.

Interest in Epstein-associated document releases is also red-hot. The market on whether “Trump x Epstein files [will be] made public in 2025” is trading at 33% with $433,000 in volume, while the broader “Will Trump release more Epstein files in 2025?” is even higher at 59%, showing significant trader confidence.

Some markets veer into darker speculation. “Evidence Trump went to Epstein’s Island made public in 2025?” trades at 12%, and “Jeffrey Epstein foul play confirmed in 2025?” is at 6%. Bets on high-level connections include “Epstein or Maxwell confirmed Mossad operatives in 2025?” (6%) and “Will Steve Bannon be in the Epstein Files?” (12%).

Others reflect pure curiosity and sensationalism. “Is Jeffrey Epstein alive?” sits at 2%, and a wildcard contract asking “Will Ghislaine Maxwell cut a deal with the Feds by Aug. 31?” has reached 14%.

Maxwell is also the subject of two Trump-related pardon markets—one asking if she will be pardoned before 2027 (21%) and another, more specific one asking if that happens by July 31 (1%).

The collective volume across all Epstein and Maxwell-linked markets exceeds $2 million, showcasing the deep public interest in unresolved threads tied to the disgraced financier and his longtime associate.

While it’s unclear what Maxwell disclosed to the DOJ, her decision to fully participate in the meeting and promise to return suggests a potentially major turn in the case. For now, the public remains in the dark—but prediction markets are betting the revelations are just getting started.
