  1. NASDAQ getting into Prediction Markets - Sort of!

    NASDAQ is seeking SEC approval to offer "binary option" contracts tied to the Nasdaq-100 and Nasdaq-100 Micro Index only - NOT on outcomes related to other events, such as sports, culture, or politics.

    The contracts are essentially a bet reflecting the market’s view of the probability that a specific outcome will occur.

    Contracts will be priced between 1 cent and $1, would pay a fixed amount if a specified condition is met and expire worthless if it is not. AKA either the condition is met, and the bettor walks away with a profit, or the option expires worthless.

    The SEC is involved b/c the NASDAQ is under their regulation unlike Prediction Markets which currently fall under the
    Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) .

    NASDAQ is also looking to offer Outcome-Related Options on other NASDAQ exchanges, including NASDAQ NOM and NASDAQ PHLX. coindesk.com/markets/2026/03/0 #NASDAQ #Contracts #SEC #CFTC #PredictionMarkets #BinaryContracts #Nasdaq100

  2. Good points in here.

    Yes, hypocrisy and arbitrariness are running amuck at the moment but the real danger is allowing mistrust in free enterprise (with appropriate regulations) to support a situation where there it becomes ok for using heavy-handed state power for arbitrary coercion. That is far more dangerous than any individual company's situation. theargumentmag.com/p/anthropic #Anthropic #StatePower #FreeSociety #FreeEnterprise #Coercion #Pentagon #AI #Principles #Policy #Hypocrisy #Business
