The prediction markets have gotten completely and utterly out of hand, and should be severely regulated our outright banned. Not only are they a public nuisance, they are also easily manipulated by bad actors using insider information to make money. See, for example, the large trades that took place minutes before the US struck Iran. It's extremely obvious that some member of the administration knew what was about to happen, and so decided to profit from it. This is an obvious and blatant conflict of interest, and needs to be shut down immediately.
