The other life of US soldier accused of betting on Maduro's removal
US Army Special Forces Master Sergeant Gannon Ken Van Dyke faces multiple federal charges, including unlawful use of classified government information, commodities fraud, and insider trading, for allegedly using details about a covert operation to seize Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to place bets on the crypto-powered platform Polymarket, earning over $400,000 in winnings. Outside his military duties at Fort Bragg, Van Dyke ran a real estate business with properties including an Airbnb mountain retreat, and attempted to conceal his Polymarket activity after the bets drew scrutiny, though investigators traced his identity via personal email and financial records.
