Two groups solved a Millennium Prize Problem, yet Polymarket prices it at just 10%

A joke post about 'remote viewing' the Stargate data center in Abilene, Texas carries an interesting quoted thread: a Clay Mathematics Institute Millennium Prize Problem has reportedly been solved by two groups, yet the Polymarket pool on whether it's solved by end of 2026 prices at only 10%.
The reason: results must be certified by CMI, which typically takes over a year — so the bet is effectively on how fast CMI certifies. The poster quips that the one CMI staffer handling it could bet his savings on 'yes' and push it through.
