If you are referring to Polymarket, it's an advisory board, not a board of directors. Big difference.

That does very little to diminish the incredibly suspicious nature of having the family members of a notoriously corrupt president on the board of a dubiously-legal-at-best company whose product is a platform for betting on major world events.

I know those two are different things, but both have the same problem here. What point are you making?

There’s no difference because the point isn’t to take advice. The position is an excuse to award shares.
