Traders do get paid for leaving up orders on the markets where they can get picked off. If you click on rewards, rate per day, it will tell you which markets pay the most for leaving up orders. Normally you have to put up an order within 3% of the mid-spread, and for a minimum of 200 shares, which would be $200 max, then you may get like 0.05c an hour or a lot more depending on how much rewards they're offering for that market and how many others are putting up liquidity.
I can't see them voiding insider bets anytime soon. I've been seeing a lot of bugs and it's not clear yet if they're compensating for their site bugs. Like this tweet, tries to put $50K on a basketball team at 1.01 and the UI puts in on the other team.

There's going to come a point where a lot of countries start cracking down like this, but how do you enforce it when people can just use a VPN and crypto?

It'd be quite easy for Polymarket to hand over the identity of those that stood to gain by "winning" the bet on the supposed missile strike, and tie them in with the X account user's identity, that were making the threats.
