Why Polymarket users are betting that Jesus Christ will return

Some Polymarket traders betting "Yes" on whether Jesus Christ returns in 2025 may be wagering that other traders will eventually sell their "No" positions to free up cash, according to a theory from Polymarket trader Jesse Richardson. Richardson's "Time Value of Money" idea holds that "No" bettors, facing year-end returns of 2.9%, might sell when more interesting markets appear, which could push the "Yes" odds from about 3% to 6%. Neyman noted that the Christ market had roughly $100,000 in volume when he published his blog last March and now has over $500,000.
