No no, your crypto currency has just attained a state of occultation
Not just polymarket. $3.5 Billion in crypto has been drained through a compromise of Binance.

Chiron is special even among Centaurs.
Occultations since 2011 hinted at rings.
The latest work (2023 multi-chord occultation, analysed in 2025) confirms three confined rings at ~273, 325 and 438 km, sitting inside a broader disk from ~200 to ~800 km, plus a faint feature out at ~1380 km.

So, Chiron.

Charles Kowal first noticed 2060 Chiron on 1 November 1977. At first everyone treated it as a plain asteroid.

Then in 1989 it suddenly developed a coma and started behaving like a comet.

Now it officially counts as both: minor planet and comet 95P/Chiron.
