The P2P.me team apologized for the prediction market betting incident and promised to inject profits into MetaDAO and develop new trading policies.

PANews reported on March 28 that the P2P.me team publicly admitted that the Polymarket betting account "P2P Team" discovered on the blockchain was indeed their team, and apologized for the betting incident.

P2P.me stated that 10 days before the fundraising launch, they used foundation funds to bet that they could raise over $6 million. At that time, there was only a verbal commitment from Multicoin ($3 million), without any signed term sheet or guaranteed allocation. Subsequently, they actually raised $5.2 million, all from independent external investors.

P2P.me acknowledges that using outcomes it could control for transactions would damage trust. However, P2P.me claims that deliberately naming the account "P2P Team" was intended to convey its presence to the community and demonstrate its intention to be transparent. But intention does not equate to action. It admits that failing to disclose information at the time was a mistake, and also acknowledges that criticism regarding the ban was justified.

P2P.me stated that profits from prediction market positions will be reinvested in the project's MetaDAO treasury, all positions will be liquidated in the coming hours, and a formal company policy regarding future prediction market trading is being developed.
