Public pressure to declassify long-protected UFO files has simmered for decades, but interest had cooled in recent times due to the lack of any movement from the Trump administration. That silence was broken when an unusual spike in betting activity jolted the topic back into public conversation.
On Polymarket, a trader began making aggressive bets that the administration would declassify UFO documents sometime in 2025. The sudden shift pushed the odds from almost nothing to nearly 87 percent within hours, sparking questions about whether someone might know more than they’re saying.

Where the Administration Stands
The Trump administration has officially expressed support for further disclosure on unidentified aerial phenomena. The Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office has made clear it has maximum administrative support to disclose more raw data, so long as sensitive information is kept safe.
Yet no executive order has been issued to open the long-sought archives. The only major declassification order of 2025 to date has involved records related to the assassinations of JFK, RFK and MLK.
