Polymarket CEO caught expensing private jets; Exa cofounders fly premium economy only

A viral claim says Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan was caught by Founders Fund charging private jet flights, apartment rent, and designer clothes as company expenses, and was forced to fully reimburse; ICE and Founders Fund then pushed for stronger financial controls and a COO appointment. In contrast, Exa's cofounders reportedly fly only premium economy on work trips — a stark culture contrast.
