A few years ago, prediction markets were a niche corner of the internet. Now the biggest financial platforms are diving in and everyone's acting like it’s pure discovery.

It’s hard to trust the outcome when we’ve seen bad actors exploit this for years. If the refs can blow a call to swing a game, what makes us think these platforms aren't rigged to favor the house? It seems the signal is getting buried under the same old gambling incentives.
