Questions

On Polymarket, does the category that disputes most also reverse most when disputed?

No — the two ranks diverge. The flip rates are measured on-chain (OOv2 disputes over ~208 days): Sports flips 38% of its 50 resolved disputes; Geopolitics flips only 5.9% of its 17. The dispute-rate ranking (Geopolitics disputes most, Sports least) is from a separate high-volume market-resolution scan, not the on-chain flip window.

Which Polymarket categories actually reverse when a dispute happens?

Flip-rate ranks opposite to dispute-rate. On-chain over ~208 days: Sports flips 38% across 50 resolved disputes while Geopolitics flips just 5.9% across 17. The dispute-rate ranking comes from a broader market-resolution scan with its own sample, so the two axes use different windows; the signal is the relative rank, not the isolated rate.
