Many European Regulators, and the EU’s European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), do consider prediction markets gambling and companies are lobbying to get reclassified. I doubt it will work. https://www.engadget.com/2265021/polymarket-lobbying-eu-regulators-to-not-be-seen-as-gambling-website/

I am not a fan of gambling. Never have been. Personally I think most all gambling should be banned. Maybe with some limited exceptions.
What I am more than disgusted by is the so called prediction markets. That looks like the worst kind of gambling and marketed as just stats. TV channels, such as CNN, include gambling results from these companies as something equal to polling. Hidden marketing is a more accurate term.
There is also a lot of examples of people gambling on things they know the outcome of. Maybe not a big surprise with something like this.
Where are the regulators? Why is this allowed?
