Why This Prediction Market Banned Teens
-
Polling is getting worse because technology is making it more likely that surveys are not responded to by a representative sample. But decisions are often made on that information.
So the betting sites take their place, but they can be manipulated by spending more money. And then that manipulation can be pushed back on with more money. The only way to make that manipulation impossible is by making the markets more widely adopted.
That's a great (shitty) business model.

RT @Teknium: Manchmal ist Aufräumen genauso gut wie neue Funktionen! Die @Polymarket-Fähigkeit wurde endlich von einer standardmäßigen Installation auf optionale Fähigkeiten verschoben. Nach den Berichten über gefälschte Wetten für Influencer und der überwältigenden Nachfrage unserer Nutzer, diese Funktion zu entfernen, ist sie nun abgeschaltet. Viel Spaß damit!
