      I seriously doubt this fast. The Olympics have always had bronze medals. This is the first time we’re seeing this…

      With enough time

      A week is enough time? Nah.

      it’s gonna turn green and start pitting

      Neither of those have happened - it’s tarnished brown and chipped but not green nor pitted.

      It’s called bronze rot.

      This isn’t bronze rot. This is poor quality plating that’s being stripped by bodily oils in less than a week. I’ve bought bronze-plated cheap Chinese jewellery that’s lasted for years under strenuous conditions before greening or pitting.
