This divergence highlights a significant split between large trader sentiment and overall market pricing.
The broader market has seen total volume of $124.91M, with whale transactions in this market totaling $2.63M bought versus $1.50M sold by 448 unique whales in the same 24-hour period. Such a net positive inflow from large traders is notable given the relatively low market price on Norway’s chances.
This market is part of the larger “World Cup Winner” event, which encompasses 50 related markets and has accumulated $3.84B in lifetime volume among 142,766 traders.
