So it's a prediction market but you aren't legally allowed to be called a prediction market. In much the same way that Pyramid Schemes can operate as "Multi-Level Marketing", eventually the regulators will catch on and shut things down.

We are perfectly allowed to be called a prediction market. That is not what I was saying in my text.

We are fully regulated by the CFTC. Our ethos has been do regulation from day 1 and we spent 3 years getting regulated before we launched a single product. Regulators are already caught up and are working with us constructively to expand this marketplace and asset class.
